So I looked up who's supposed to be the greatest female figure skater of all time, and supposedly it's this Michelle Kwan chick...
Highest paid of all time, apparently. Does that really mean best? Dunno. Prolly not. She won Olympic silver in 1998 and bronze in 2002, so I'll watch something from those eras.
Michelle Kwan - 1998 Olympics - Free Skate
She's great but I don't really dig the outfit.
Her jumps are great but there's too much emphasis on the finish, like an attempt is really being made to keep it together, and that really comes across.
It's not really holding my attention or making me feel anything...
It has to make me feel something.
I literally weep watching figure skating (if it's good and powerful) so if I feel nothing, meh, it's just not gonna be memorable for me.
She had a few effortless looking jumps, obviously she's great but... not memorable for me.
