His footwork and spins are incredible! I remember when figure skating included an artistic element. This program is a perfect mix of athleticism plus artistry. It's called figure skating. It shouldn't be a jump contest.
1st time seeing this.. damn both if his programs were the bomb!! so different and so on point, such versatility. what an artist, keeps you interested, modern but not overly so. good job adam, you can be so proud of yourself
I'm speechless by his performance and the track he used. I just watched a segment about how he has a guy who customizes his music so I know I cant just look this up on google...
@@mht4908 unfortunately figure skating has become too focused on jumping. It's figure skating. It's athleticism plus art. This short program was gold medal worthy. Jumping higher doesn't mean you're a better skater.
GOOD. FOR. YOU. Awesome recording, thank you SO MUCH for posting, I have been waiting for something like this since February. This is mesmerizing. Oh my, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
People thought Tonya Harding skating to "People are still having sex" was crazy but she was so fun and so ahead of her time. Very similar to this performance at least the music and fun of it.
@@itsallgoodman1244 yes, unfortunately quads are more important than artistry now. Adam's triples are great and he is an artist on the ice. He lit that place up.
@@freddiemercury4evr I 100% agree with you his sp I love it so much. It's just it's the new system. I wish we still had 6.0s. But they both have ups and downs(The systems)
Fixed?? LOL. No. Because your personal favorite didn't win, the competition was fixed? Rippon's short program was my favorite out of everyone, but he went into the Olympics knowing full well that winning gold or a medal for that matter was far, far from reach. Rippon had nowhere near the difficulty he needed to compete with the top tier. Finishing 10th was a huge victory for him, and helping USA to Team Bronze was all he could have ever wanted.
My favorite short program….ever
3:11 gorgeous Layback
i divide my life into two parts: first is before i saw Adam Rippon perform this routine and the second started after I saw it
This wasn’t just a program, it was a performance
He lit up that rink!!
the camera is shaking because he has too much power
His turns and footwork sequences are INSANE. I tried a tiny section of that and wiped out!

I will always love this program 😭

03:11 와 진짜 멋지다....남자 선수가 레이백을 저렇게 예쁘게 해... 근데 심지어 살짝 턴아웃도 있음......
this is the greatest short program of all time period
Thank u for this. This is the best recording to hear the music with it. This boy took skating fans to the club honey!!!!
how he landed that axel is beyond me.
Ice, steel, and TALENT.
... why can't I for the life of me find the official video? I'm so glad someone has uploaded it - thank you!

I feel foolish. If anyone else is wondering its "let me think about it" by Ida Corr and Fedde le Grand either radio or extended mix
@@anniedotson1165 you're right but i think its the eddie thoneick remix
He deserved the gold medal . He was flawless .
Unfortunately he didn’t have the difficulty because he had no quads. He definitely wins the spins and artistry hands down in my book

absolutely should not have gotten the gold medal
great recording! Thanks for sharing!

It’s the dip at the end for me
Best SP ever!
Breathtaking

Exactly!
That was some great camera work! It’s so hard to be in the audience and follow a skater while filming video.
How did he not win the gold is the insanity of it all.
He didn't?! What'd he get?!
Know more about the sport then you will know. He was a great spinner though cant say the same for his jumps

Triple Lutz I have trust issues with the Olympics since Sochi. ISU is not reliable at all.
iconic
3:13
Очень круто
Exhilarating!
Stylish and edgy.
He should have won gold.
All he needed with this music was a bottle of poppers.
He could’ve done some quad flips
Yashh
awesome👌😇😇😇💣🔚🔚🎉🎉🎉🎉
🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥🔥❤🔥 that's ALL I got...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
YASSSS , momma came to slay bitches !!!
He should have won gold. Everything is fixed these days.
HeartSmart1 girl yuzuru hanyu is 100x better, hes a skating god

Lol! Fixed because he didn’t win. He’s an amazing skater, but you obviously didn’t watch any other skaters that got in the top ten.
@@imsuingyou2184 Wrong. I watched the entire short program and long program for the men. Also ladies, and the team event.
Rich I wasn’t talking to you, I’m talking to the other person. This wasn’t fixed. He isn’t technically as good as the other men.
