Fanastic to see this, thanks so much. A stylish and technically gifted skater with very high jumps. I think the first piece is from Zigeunerweisen (Gypsy Dances), I recognise the section at 2:02-2:16 from Kira Ivanova's 1986-1987 FP.
Thank you so much for posting this! Amazing find. There are so few films of Ken Shelley as a single skater. I hope you are able to find the vault where all the video from the 1972 Olympics and Worlds has been stored. There seems to be almost nothing available from this particular year.
That was a fantastic skating of Ken as a single skater! Thank you for posting it!
Still holds up. One of my favorite skaters
Great edges, jumps, and footwork--so very good. I've watched this several times and always impressed with Ken's skating.

What great skating!
I love those Russian split jumps!
Aside from his obviously awesome skating, Ken was hottie!!
Randy Reese He still is. ;-)
Hell YES he is!! :) (Sorry. Didn't mean to imply he isn't. ;) P.S. Here's the 'a' that belongs in my first post.
I was thinking the same thing!! 🙂. ( my first time seeing him up close)
Go, Ken!
Сейчас такое трудно ПРЕДСТАВИТЬ выступать и в одиночном и в парном .....!!!!
ОЧЕНЬ ХОРОШО
5.7-5.8 was normal marks for one triple jump!
That was 50 years ago!!
