yes, and the artistry of these amazing athletes is so clear when you slow-mo the video, and can see how incredible those turns are...

Apolo Ohno isn't a dirty skater at all. He will tap someone in front of him to let them know he's comin If you watch ALL of the Short Track races with other players and not only focus on Apolo, you'd see that the majority of them all do the same thing. He's just really good and knows how to get around people. ALL skaters tap each other from behind to throw them off. It's a method they all use. Like basketball, you put your hands in the players face to distract them from making a successful pass.

[jenny8031]

He is famous player and Olympic medalist.

But he is playing dirty.

Everybody knows that.

He disturbing other players all the time.

ono is not a fair player. he often pushes other runners that comes from his behind. i cannot believe that americans still treat him like a hero, after seeing the video him pushing others. obvious mean moments.
