Kurt Browning - 97 Ultimate Four Short Program

Kurt Browning's 'disastrous' 1997 Ultimate Four short program, where he forgot the program, but remained himself. Charming and irrepressible.

OMG...what a jerk! It must be Sumners talking.

[wirose]

Yep. Same season she was touring with him on SOI. Fun, eh?

[clavedostres]

I am really surprised that he just quite like that. He is an amazing skater, but he is a human being. It was not his day. Amazing footwork though.

[wirose]

There's nothing fake about Kurt, IMO. If he doesn't know it, he doesn't know it. He's so very human and you gotta love him for it.

the woman is soooo irritating!!!

No one is perfect every time. He admits his fault and goes on. This does not detract from Kurt's stupendous talent and character; this confirms it.

I feel kind of bad for the guy. I mean, yeah, maybe he should have spent a little more time putting the program together, but you gotta give him credit for trying.

ohmigod what a bitch .... she really didn't have to say "HUUGGGGGGE" mistake .....

He learned an awful lot from this performance. And seeing him in limbo makes me appreciate his superb performances all the more.

"this is absolutely unacceptable" OMG - Sumners shut your mouth!!! You've never made a mistake??? Do you recall the mistakes you made in your LP at the 1984 Olympics when you lost the gold??? Geezzzzzz... this is the Ultimate 4 Competition that happened what 3 times??? Relax... This is NOT a big deal!!!

so said he "couldn't remember the last spin"... he could just do a death drop, flying camel, upright , or even layback spin since he hasn't used either of these.

I really thought he would have made some footwork or artistic stuff up at the end insted of just giving up like that. I can totally see where he was coming from though, thinking his marks would be worse off. In that short time during your solo if you hit a blank you really don't have time to try to get back on track. Kurts just awesome =D

i think the commentaries make it worse. it would've been fine without that girl talking. oh well...he tried!!! so cute to watch though
