SARAJEVO 1984: After achieving international infamy by deliberately kicking the boards after the marks I received for the back change loop in the figures competition, I had another brush with the boards in the short at these Olympic Games!

But I did do all my tricks. I could have given the combination spin a better whirl so the crossfoot didn’t slow down so much. A sudden halt from a twirling crossfoot would have enhanced the impact of the ending of the program.
