Olympic Figure Skating from 1992-2018
I’ve been on a major streak of watching past Olympic ice skating performances. It made me realize how the skating world has changed. We now have skaters attempting and accomplishing quads and jumps with one or both arms above their heads. The lift combinations of pairs skaters have gotten bigger and more powerful. The choreography of today has brought originality and passion to the next level. Here are some of my favorite performances from the past Olympics and narrowing it down when I was alive and remember watching. I’m also including the recent performance by Vanessa James and Morgan Ciprès from the Grand Prix Final 2018-2019 because it was definitely a milestone for them in their skating career and hopefully will be able to keep this momentum and participate at the 2022 Olympics at Beijing.
