OMG she is SO GREAT! OMG

even after the backflip she goes for does an triple axel...or that spinWOW

does anyone know if she is the only female to backflip?

[sayomsskiver]

yeah and land with one leg

[hostilityy]

how come this generation figure skaters never do this anymore ?

[Angel77300]

@KloverKitty this is actually wrong, Surya is the only woman able to do it on 1 leg and u can count on 1 hand men that can do it. But there are a lot than can do it on 2 legs

@kawaiiushii i dont think that kim yuna could do a backflip, she has doesnt have the muscled legs, but she is indeed a perfection in skating

[kawaiiushii]

@mgvwolf it's illegal so....i wish it wasnt though we wudve seen many e.g kim yuna do it !!

[KloverKitty]

the backflip is an illegal move in figure skating. this basically means that if you do it you are heavily penalized and even disqualified. so yes, lots of people can actually do the move, but dont because of the fact that its not allowed.

@trojanrob24 to be honest, i dont even think they would consider it as a difficult entry, just because its so dangerous to try a back flip at all, let alone land it on one foot and then do a triple sal off the ride out

this kind of stuff is reserved for shows essentially, otherwise we'd be giving the poor judges heart attacks

@mgvwolf She did a triple Salchow.

[trojanrob24]

i cant imagine how the ijs will value the backflip as a transition into a 3sal.

[Aleeraize]

She is the best figure scater EVER! Fabulous!

@sayomsskiver No ive seen Kimmie Meissner from the US do a backflip, as well as Sasha Cohen
