She will forever be one of my favorites ♥️

Surya will be forever:One of the BEST female skaters EVER!! 🥇🏆💃🏿

Strong despite the fall the best spinner in the group. Perfect positions and excellent speed. Deep artistic impression. Decent step sequence and her edges were steady. Surya was robbed here in a competition where every skater fell. Her elements were more polished and her overall program was more difficult. The hometown girl was robbed. Racial prejudice in figure skating. Bonaly was a fine skater wasn't as confident in her jumps back then nerves were evident but she delivered.

Not really. If you follow the sport you will see much of her skills are sloppy. They're super powerful and she had good raw power and talent from her gymnastics background. But she didn't have a coach that could reign it in and polish it. This is because of her creepy mom that was overbearing with her coaches and eventually became her coach, despite her not having a figure skating background. Despite not winning a major international gold, she is remembered more for being Surya, not some flash in the pan figure skater. And that's much better for her enduring legacy.

she was and still a DIVA

@sbe79

4 жыл бұрын

Her double axels were always good but her best jumps were the Toe and Salchow. Here, she attempted a Quad Toe. I know a few years later she went after a Quad Salchow. I don't think she could get the snap on the axel to give it another rotation, she didn't rotate the doubles that fast. She was a good jumper and will be remembered as such, but I think where she faltered is that she often went after more than she was capable of doing. Give the girl credit, she had some serious drive and didn't back down from a challenge. But once you screw one element up, it's easier to make a mistake on the next... and the next... which is where I think she often lost some of the competitions she might have won. Like perhaps this one.

She Is the best. I love her and her custome Is one of the most beautiful I have never seen

The technical marks seem about fair, except that 5.1 one, that seems horribly low. Yes she did fall and some shaky landings but the mid to high 5s seems about right. Artistic is all over the map. Let's not forget with artistic marks judges are notorious for under scoring more strong skaters like Bonaly and Harding in favor of the more ice princess/artistic waif types, especially from countries of European influence (and look who gave her the lowest scores). Racism? Possibly, but I'd say it goes a bit further than that especially if you followed the sport for a long time. Now Bonaly gets much more recognition for her abilities than she did back then.

@@Danny-wy8kz さん、同意ありがとうございます。３０年くらい前、世界選手権のテレビを観て、かつてのジャネット・リンと難度は異なるものの、正反対のジャンプの入り方や、正反対のプログラム構成に驚いたものです。別の動画でもコメントしましたが、女子体操床運動のタンブリングで、音楽や流れを無視して跳馬をやっている様なものだと思いました。彼女のフリー演技は、ショーとしてのレベルは著しく低かったと思いました。今でも考えは変わりません。

She has excellent athletic ability, but doesn’t have the grace and artistry needed to win in figure skating. Gymnastics should have been her focus.

Une des meilleures a son époque et encore maintenant. Malheureusement, elle a été souvent jugée sur sa couleur de peau que pour son programme artistique! Ah le racisme. Comme disait Alpha blondy d'une une chanson "tant que la couleur de peau aura de la signification comparé à ses yeux" voilà tout est résumé.

Surya's problem was that she always tried too much and tried to do things she couldn't do and as a consequence she often ruined her performances. Example - the triple toe/triple toe combo here - the second triple toe was two footed despite the first one being fine, secondly the quad toe was under-rotated and slightly 2 footed - I never saw her do a clean quad toe in all her amateur career, so why try something she couldn't do? Her artistry and style improved considerably as she got older and I think if she had kept her programmes to doing what she could actually do instead of attempting stuff she was nowhere near to landing cleanly, then I think she would have done better.

You could say the exact same thing about Ito & Harding for trying and landing the triple axel.
