@nondescriptnyc They WERE truly awful. I'd take Min and Mo [ Moseeiva and Minikov ] over them anyday. And the Hungarian team should've won Gold in Lake Placid. Linichuk stumbled during the free dance there and it wasn't subtle either. Glad the Hungarian team won the Gold here. They deserved it. And they deserved it @ Lake Placid.
С этим танцем Л и К проиграли ЧМ и выиграли ОИ - самое несправедливое золото за всю историю танцев на льду, врученное дуэту, вознесенному на вершину танцевального олимпа благодаря закулисным интригам спортивных чиновников и мощному пиару, развернутому их тренером.
When I first saw them around 1975, I thought they were truly awful for some reason--I don't know why, but I somehow thought she looked unsophisticated and they looked awkward...
But they shocked me in 1978 & 1979 by making a quantum-leap improvement. And, although North Americans really loved to hate them in 1980, I thought they were in fact the best dance couple in many ways. Her knees/ankles are just amazing.

Can somebody post their 1978 dance? It was a true masterpiece.
