Kristina Regoesczy & Andras Sallay - 1977 Europeans FD

A wonderful performance to clinch the silver medal ahead of Linichuk and Karponosov who would surpass them a year later to become the dominant dance pair through to the 1980 Olympics. The Hungarians wouldn't gain revenge until their final performance at the 1980 Worlds where they won the gold. Many said they should have been the Olympic Champions also.

@lamarin777 I love their skating, and I do think they definitely made the sport better. With this said, I completely agree with you that all of their free dances looked as though they were derivatives of each other. They did change the music over the years (e.g., Johan Strauss in 1979), but their basic choreography remained quite similar until they retired.

All the dances of this pair look like twins. During all their career I had the impression that they were dancing the same dance.

They definitely was robbed in the Olympic Games. They worthed the Gold there...
