I personally see Midori's triple axel as better. Like people said, Tonya has this odd lean in the air.

スローVTRの速度が同じかどうかはわからないけど、これだけを­比較すると、滞空時間でTonya Hardingの方がMidori Itoを上回っている。　ただ、空中姿勢は断然 Midori Itoの方が綺麗でTonya Hardingは軸がズレていて綺麗じゃない。　トータルで考えると、やはりジャンプに限っては、Midori Ito の右に出る者はいない。

Midori's kicks ass

@anubethc45 The origin of the car has nothing to do with it they. They're saying that it's comparing something vastly superior to something that's only sub-standard. Do you understand? They're not saying It's like comparing Japan to America. It's a comparison in the quality.

They are always going to be legends!!! No matter whatever scandal goes around, they are legends.

Well, both ladies did them pretty well. The tragedy about Tonya was that she got lazy. Simple as that. Had she committed herself for the 1991/1992 Olympic Season and won a medal at the 1992 Games in Albertville, France, like I think she could have, then I really don't think all the garbage with having to resort to her thugs attacking poor Kerrigan would have been necessary, IMO

@kh3205 Wonder if they both can land the jump now?

@HattieLovesCattie

Yes, Midori's body leans in the air. However, if you watch carefully, she keeps the same angle from the take-off to the landing while Tonya tilts in the air.
