  • This performance always takes my breath away. They really move to every note of the music. Simply beautiful ice dancing.

  • This should be consider one of the classic Ice-Dance FP off all time.

    TRUE ICE-Dance, True Sport right here!

    This portion, they should have been rank 2nd or 3rd. Just like the Olympics, completely underrated.

  • One of the most under-rated ice dancing teams. I vividly remember feeling like they should have placed much, much higher during the entire season.

  • Amazing. I couldn't take my eyes off them. So beautiful and I am aghast at how much speed they carried throughout the entire program. So underrated. As much as I love all the teams who medaled in this competition, I thought this was on par with or better than all of them.

  • This is the best tango on ice that anyone has ever done; Davis and White's new program is very good, but it does not match this one.

  • WOW!!! i got chills!

  • The speed they maintain throughout this dance is just breathtaking, and so superior to their competition. This would easily be one of the top 5 ice dance routines of all time.

  • These guys, along with Anjelica Krylova and Oleg Obsiannokov (sp?) were the best dancers at the time, they incorporated actual dance into their routines the way Davis and White and Virtue Moir do today. So annoying they got screwed in the placements.

  • Agreed, they were consistently underrated, but paved the way for North America to eventually dominate ice dancing. This is one of my favorite FDs of all time. So fluid, intricate, and passionate.

  • This is mesmerizing and magnificent. It is like they are the forerunners of the great North American couples who would come along in the next decade with their simple costumes and great music and finally get marks they deserved.

  • I agree with that, the jibe wasn't their strength, but this tango was better than L/A or the Italians, so I'd have them top five

  • I think they shuold have been top five, but the ice dances judges back then didn't allow it

  • They were soooooooooo robbed here!!! In Comparison with Ilia and Lobacheva this pair was waaaaay superior.
