Jul 7, 2008 - The commentary is a little cheesey. "it's winter but he warmed up the ice".. reminds me of Blades of Glory when the guy said "he's known for his personal hygiene but he's starting to reek of gold".

Jul 7, 2008 - Finally, someone hit the nail on the head.. Exactly what i've been telling everyone for the past couple of years. :)

Jul 7, 2008 - Is he really coming back to competition, or is that just wishful thinking...?

Vivien1 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Wishful thinking, I'm afraid :(

Jul 7, 2008 - I'm not sure about Plushenko, but I think Yagudin has said it would be very unlikely with his health problems. If they did go, it'd probably just be for fun. I think they're a little past their time.

Jul 7, 2008 - He's so classy... And yes, that routine did revolutionalise footwork in men's skating forever afterwards... Wish he was still competing... But then he's on a different level to everyone else, really. He'd win so easily:D

okilicli Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Yep, as I heard, he had another incident at the beginning of this year or smth and on Eurosport they commented that it looks impossible that he'll ever come back. :( On the other hand, Plushenko is apparently coming back.. Although, not the same as Yagudin as we would all agree.

Jul 7, 2008 - that footwork is still the best ever!!

muzcord Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - LOL, Scott Hamilton sounded like he was having hernia after that 4-3 combination.

Jul 7, 2008 - One of my favorite short programs of all time!:) Go Alexei!

Martynka83 Says:

Jul 7, 2008 - Winter is a masterpiece. Oustanding compared to today's routines, and simly forever. Still it's not in my Top 3 or so of Alexei's programs. Dunno why, probably because the competition among them is tough:), and I like the music to some other pieces more. Anyway, doesn't matter. Love the expression on his face at the beginning. A true artist, actor. With the very first look or move, Yagudin always invites you to live the program with him, not just look. And you do.

Jul 7, 2008 - It's definitely a masterpiece.Amazing choreography and the most artistic skater in the world!And the choice of music was right on target.He was flawless and it was a cryin' shame he didn't get higher marks.I know he skated quite early but still...Anyway...he was perfect and his performance was THE art on ice!
