Budapest, HUNGARY - 1988 World Figure Skating Championships, Ladies' Long Program - Katarina Witt of East Germany ended her amateur career with her 4th World Title.
Hi Katarina, ich komme auch aus der ehemaligen DDR.Lebe jetzt in Köln. Aber immer wenn ich dich Tanzen sehe auf dem Eis, besonders die alten Aufnahme (CZcams), dann kommen mir heute noch,vor Freude!, die Tränen. Du bist und bleibst für mich die Spitze im Eiskunstlauf. ⛸️👍🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🏆☮️💖🙋Bea.
Смотришь, сравниваешь и понимаешь, насколько раньше все было простенько! Да, тоже в детстве засматривалась её выступлением😁 пересмотрела и думаю, что в сравнении с нынешним катанием просто игра в песочнице!
Best female skater I've ever seen. Her classical style is utterly beautiful, and graceful. Once she starts on the ice, I'm mesmerized by her talent Katerina is a legend.
Она очень хороша для своего времени. Это была сложная программа.. Сейчас ушли вперёд. Но она навсегда останется лучшей. А как она отзывалась о нашей Камиле Валиевой. Две звёздочки.
Браво. Браво. Браво. Бриллиант Шедевр из Германии. Талант Послан Богом Огромное спасибо Вам за прекрасное видео и Танцы Шедевр. Всего самого наилучшего вам в жизни Успехов во всем Счастья Любви Радости вам всего доброго и хорошего в жизни.
Катарина, ты чемпионка навсегда! Когда спорт был ещё спортом, а не прислугой политики. Спасибо тебе за поддержку наших девочек на ОИ. Ты лучшая была и осталась для нас Великой спортсменкой и Человеком!
Катарина Витт прекрасна на все времена!!! Без всех ваших ультра си. Это легенда на все времена. Фигурное катание - это зрелищный вид спорта. И Катарина нам даёт это великолепное зрелище.
Again, Witt was VERY Lucky to win this, her last World title. She doubled out of a triple Loop and a triple Salchow, and I believe singled a double axel. Definitely she was not as confident here as she was at the Olympics a month earlier. But as usual, Witt's competitors handed her another title on a silver platter. I don't want to keep bringing up Debi's shortfall bc very few athletes could carry a pre-med course load while training for the Olympics, but where other ice skaters had fragile nerves, Katarina had a competitive fire that burned deep within her. But on this day, Witt was def beatable. Debi and Liz Manley again came up short when it mattered.
Agreed. I also see this a bit of a lifetime achievement award send-off. I seem to recall that Liz won the first two figures and then the judges did an ordinal flip in favour of Witt that was somewhat controversial. Very strong artistically but technically limited and past her technical prime.
@@brentehrlich8570I don't even know if she had a "prime" 😆😆 Folks say Katarina had more technically difficult jumps early in her career, but I've yet to see them
The only other skaters in the history of women’s figure skating that I feel have the same nature sense of drama, intensity and flair are Nicole Bobek and Sasha Cohen.
Tres bel anniversaire katarina la plus grande carmen éternelle et plus grande légende de tout les temps la sublime perfection de beauté absolue sublime magnifique beauté et merveille pour toujours katarina ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
She was ok. I did notice that in almost all her performances she stops in the middle of her program and is able to somewhat catch her breath and have a little rest. Most other skaters actually skate the whole performance without stopping.
Fair point but she did 4 jumping passes, 2 spins and a technically difficult step sequence all perfectly timed to the music in the first minute. If she’d been a fraction of a second out it would have looked a mess. That was tough going. she deserved the little rest
In 1988, it was kind of the very last time this could happen. This was the year that an increasing number of skaters were upping their jumping capacity. Midori Ito was becoming known for the 3 Axel, but her compulsory figures and presentation scores kept her buried. Liz Manley had a 3 Lutz, but she was not terribly refined on ice, leaving her as a player, but not the winner. Katarina really needed to showcase the 3 Loop here, but could not. She relied this year on really being the only woman to have meaningful choreography, the ability to bring a whole vibe and the jumps were JUST good enough one more time. If she'd competed in 1989, I'm not sure Kat would have made the podium as the jumps people were putting out for harder and more consistent as her own consistency declined. She was fortunate for errors of others every step of the way this particular year. In 1989, Midori Ito blew up on the scene and won the title with a massive jump artillery and those under her were gaining the Flip and Lutz.

I'm not. The East Germans were still pro Soviet after the reunification. That's how Oksana Baiul won the Gold over a flawless Nancy Kerrigan. The German judge scored the little Ukranian higher than Kerrigan because he was disgusted that America might produce yet another Ice Princess. However, if she hadn't been knee-knocked, it is doubtful if either Kerrigan or big, bad Tonya would have made the Olympic podium even if Harding had played fair and come in second at the Nationals. Kerrigan would not have had as much confidence coming to Norway in 1994 as she did winning the bronze in Albertville in 1992. But she is richer and more famous than Oksana and most Gold medalists and that should have served some purpose as well. I'm glad for that fact.
I think there were only two clean triples though well done (the garbage / easy triples) and no double axel. This is ridiculous. I would have gien first in the free to Manley.
The stupid commentator does not not, that in the German word "Eiskunstlauf" is included the word "Kunst" (art), while in English is only "Figure Skating". Katharina Witt focused on both athleticism and artistic enjoyment, while the American sports women forgot about the later.
Drama queen maybe. This is a sports competition and she lacked the technique to justify that win. So happy that the scoring finally changed - so the favorites cannot just get " gifts"
No longer such impressive touching artistic program might be expected. So many drug drunken Russian little girls and too many athletic skills assessments are ruining the art of figure skating.
From a technical perspective, she was average at best. But....being pretty and somewhat artistic, the ISU and many judges over inflated her marks for the good of the sport. She was fortunate that powerhouses like Ito were deliberately marked down and that more technically talented skaters were deliberately marked down in order for Witt to win. Many people are taken under her spell due to her good looks. I am not one of them. Witt may be (and probably is)...the most overrated skater in history.
Dieser Frau zuzusehen hat etwas magisches . Die bezaubernste Eiskunstläuferin überhaupt ...
Ja! Das war ihr letzter Wettkampf, und die Luft war raus!
Hi Katarina, ich komme auch aus der ehemaligen DDR.Lebe jetzt in Köln. Aber immer wenn ich dich Tanzen sehe auf dem Eis, besonders die alten Aufnahme (CZcams), dann kommen mir heute noch,vor Freude!, die Tränen. Du bist und bleibst für mich die Spitze im Eiskunstlauf.
⛸️👍🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🏆☮️💖🙋Bea.
debbie thomas was performing carmen, Katarina Witt was carmen.....
Katerina Witt IS Carmen.🤩🤩🤩❤❤❤
KATARINA...just acted sexy and did alot of slow Posing. This was an AMATEUR Skating competition,but back then....Witt/Muller OWNED the Judges.💯
Her Carmen is a masterpiece.
Лучшая фигуристка 20 века в женском катании!!!.
Странно на её 2 прыжки смотреть после наших девушек Валиевой,Щербаковой,Трусовой
I loved her then and still do today. My opinion, best skater ever!
Единственная и неповторимая Кэтрин! Как мы ждали её выступления, это было фантастически.
Как я любила её выступления! Непревзойдённая!
Смотрела ребёнком, с удивлением обнаружила, что помню это замечательное выступление до сих пор
Красавица!!! В детстве всегда ждала её выступления!!! 🥰🥰😍😍😍 Просто супер фигуристка, спасибо каналу😘
Помню как закончила Лиллехаммере 1994 (7 место итоге) тогда Катарине под 30-ть возраст фигурном катании.Грусть в глазах Ю.Мюллер и К.Витт
Wir als DDR Bürger konnten es nur im Fernsehen sehen.....sie ist fantastisch....wie wir alle und sie ist Carmen....und, wir genauso Stolz.....
It is obvious what captured the hearts! And that's not just the sport. Dance on ice is a dance.
Sie ist und bleibt die weltbeste Eiskunstläuferin aller Zeiten.
Zusammen mit ihrer Trainerin Jutta Müller.
Unvergessen ❤
Danke ❤
QUEEN KATARINA
Шикарная программа и шикарная Катарина! Настоящий спектакль на льду
Насколько далеко шагнуло фигурное катание! В том числе ,благодаря и Катарине
I forgot her grace. Absolutely gorgeous.
Женственна, артистична. Прекрасная Катрин
Катарина, ты прекрасна!💕
Смотришь, сравниваешь и понимаешь, насколько раньше все было простенько! Да, тоже в детстве засматривалась её выступлением😁 пересмотрела и думаю, что в сравнении с нынешним катанием просто игра в песочнице!
А мне, как ни странно, на программы и фигуристов тех времен смотреть интереснее, чем на нынешних малолетних акробатов и акробаток...
@@Nata34Moscowартистичности нет у наших девочек. Надо в этом плане работать и работать. Щербакова только хороша в этом плане.
Легенда! Я в детстве обожала её смотреть, хотя совершенно далека от фигурного катания
Best female skater I've ever seen. Her classical style is utterly beautiful, and graceful. Once she starts on the ice, I'm mesmerized by her talent
Katerina is a legend.
Катарина= Легенда!! НИКТО НЕ помнит фигуристок катавшихся вместе с ней😊😊аОна= ПО прежнему ЗВЕЗДА!!👏👏👏👐👐👐😍😍
Она очень хороша для своего времени. Это была сложная программа.. Сейчас ушли вперёд.
Но она навсегда останется лучшей. А как она отзывалась о нашей Камиле Валиевой. Две звёздочки.
Королева льда! Непревзойдённая!
My favorite skater !!!
Wunderschön
I liked when skating was like this - adult ladies, nice choreography, artistic performance. Now it’s 16 years old jumping quadraples:(
Kamila Valieva is by far a much better skater in every way.

Любим и всегда вспоминаем эту восхитительную фигуристку!
A superstar that was completely unstoppable at these World Championships
Personne n'a jamais dansé de cette façon si envoûtante avec une technique parfaite.

She is the most beautiful woman in the Whole Wide World.
Лучшее, что было в фигурном катании.
Хорошее прекрасное, но не лучшее)
В те времена,может и да.
Сейчас наших фигуристки лучшие
Katarina transformed into Carmen
Debbie performed Carmen

She briefly performed the triple flip and double lutz-triple toe. I think she is co-credited with the first triple flip in competition.
Всеми любимая, фееричная Катарина! ⚘
The only other skaters in the history of women’s figure skating that I feel have the same nature sense of drama, intensity and flair are Nicole Bobek and Sasha Cohen.
Удивительно,что она не стала звездой голливуда.по всем статьям подходила.
Она умна. Потому и Hollywood обошла стороной. До сих пор красива.
Katarina Witt could have been the next Sonja Henie.🤩🤩🤩❤❤❤

GREATEST LEGS OF ALL TIME!!!
Каторина - сама грация. Класс!
Классная была фигуристка.

分かります。当時は最高!だと思っていた彼女の演技。今見ると、彼女のフラメンコタイム💃の長いこと。この緩いプログラムで休憩は必要ないと思います。他の選手の方が柔軟性もありフリーレッグも綺麗ですね。
SUPER!Katarina!!!
Skating makes life worth living fans
Katarina was Carmen Debi playing Carmen
Тренер Ю.Мюллер, СК Карл-Маркс-штадт
Beautiful presentation, but technically way overscored. Singling out the first axel, shaky double loop and doubling the salchow. 5.5/5.9 in my book
최고!
Did she do the triple loop here somehow I can’t see it! I think it’s a double or do I see it wrong?
A great women
На Катарину Витт приятней смотреть, чем на Трусову!
This performance made me become a skater. I copied her for years pretending I was Carmen.
Which place was she in free skating that time?
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
No lutz or flip? I only saw 2 axel, toe loop or salchow mainly. Was this normal then?
In 1988, it was kind of the very last time this could happen. This was the year that an increasing number of skaters were upping their jumping capacity. Midori Ito was becoming known for the 3 Axel, but her compulsory figures and presentation scores kept her buried.

AMAZING ⛸
Great artistry, but only 3 out of 5 planned triples.

I am glad Germany reunited.
Why?
Nein

Katarina not carolina
I think there were only two clean triples though well done (the garbage / easy triples) and no double axel. This is ridiculous. I would have gien first in the free to Manley.
She missed both the triple loop and the triple salchow, and still won????????????! 😂
Да,это женское катание с воплощением художественного образа. С прекрасным скольжение,внешней красотой.Сейчас катание-соревнование прыжков фигуристок подросткового возраста.Совсем неинтересно.
The stupid commentator does not not, that in the German word "Eiskunstlauf" is included the word "Kunst" (art), while in English is only "Figure Skating". Katharina Witt focused on both athleticism and artistic enjoyment, while the American sports women forgot about the later.
Прыжки хороши, а хореография 0.
Not the best at all All drama
근데 옛날이라 스런지 카타리나가 약간 투명하게 버인다
punteggio ridicolo lol
The artistic marks were utterly ridiculous. Absurd.
She's really not that good of a skater 😮!
She missed the triple loop and the triple salchow!
Debbie Thomas hd the grace of a mule and the rest were no match for the Quenn of ice Kat.
Yes! I so agree with you👍
Drama queen maybe. This is a sports competition and she lacked the technique to justify that win. So happy that the scoring finally changed - so the favorites cannot just get " gifts"
No longer such impressive touching artistic program might be expected. So many drug drunken Russian little girls and too many athletic skills assessments are ruining the art of figure skating.
She has absolutely no flexibility.
заги лучше..
From a technical perspective, she was average at best. But....being pretty and somewhat artistic, the ISU and many judges over inflated her marks for the good of the sport. She was fortunate that powerhouses like Ito were deliberately marked down and that more technically talented skaters were deliberately marked down in order for Witt to win.

She's so overrated....
True!!👍👍
Such a weak technical skate.
Simply ART on the ice! Thank you Katarina...
