Reading her memoir made me revisit this moment. It was a wow before but now it's just so layered with meaning and emotion. She was, and is, something special.
For the people that are saying they miss this Gracie… Remember, this was when everyone started to expect perfection out of her. It baffles me that she can still make a mistake this performance wasn’t perfect and still win when she looks incredibly shocked. If you look closely, She spends an awful lot of time with her hands covered over her ears. At the time, I thought why is she blocking all this out. But the more I look back at it and it her expression she seems almost scared of being that perfect even though she has a smile on her face. Let’s not forget that this year is the year that her international debut was at the Olympics and not only did she skate clean but she helped the US when a team bronze metal. If this is the debut everyone wanted then they got it. Kudos to Gracie for knowing when to step out and step back. It is so great to see her genuinely love every single second that she’s out there now. Although I know she’d probably like an Olympic spot or any other type of metals as a Cab to her come back, I hope people remember that she already has accomplished so much and just allow her to enjoy wherever this journey takes her. Gracie I am so proud of you regardless of the outcome for coming back and competing for only you and taking us your audience along for your ride. Best of luck this year!
I think it's because she pays attention to her fans. She loves them and they love her for loving them. She goes out of her way to collect the gifts they throw where others will ignore them. She's also very emotive, and people love to see big smiles and pumped up celebrations. It's refreshing to see how these professional athletes are just as human as us. :)
gallantrycross x I didn't know that, loads of people were saying that it's just all in her head and she just kept choking. but yeah that would definitely affect her performance
I know... seeing what's been happening to her these past year... she looked so happy here. Though im not a huge fan or anything I really hope she makes a come back.
gallantrycross x .. she also had/has a eating disorder. I think she is in recovery still. [I hope so!!! it normally takes 6 full years to be fully recovered btw.]
right? i don't think people understand how incredibly, incredibly difficult it is to overcome an eating disorder. and not only to overcome it, but to return to the ice with grace. truly amazing. i admire her so much and she's an inspiration to me recovering from my own eating disorder. gracie is pure magic.
i miss this gracie. she was incredible here. Love this performance. She has to be one of the most talented skaters ever to not get a world, olympic or even gpf medal.
I keep watching the opening 3L + 3T at 1:21 and holy crap, the height and power on the lutz was insane! I don’t know how she kept control of that but I’m so impressed! Also, hi it’s 2019 and I am missing GG so here I am
as someone with an eating distorder, it's so bittersweet to watch this performance. i find myself coming back to it over and over again because she looks so happy and proud of herself. but now knowing that she was suffering from an eating disorder the whole time - it's heartbreaking. all of the time and effort spent practicing, while probably being constantly hounded by eating disorder thoughts... i can't even imagine. it makes me so happy that she has returned to skating - it doesn't matter if she ever wins another medal or title again, i think her pure strength just to come back at all is admirable. she'll always be my favorite of all time.
I'm reading her memoir rn. She talks about this skate/the situation leading up and thoughts during in depth, in it. So now I have to rewatch it. So good!
Heart of a champion. Her skate at 2020 was a personal journey. It’s ok Gracie don’t ever loose the passion to skate or do the things you love. You mentor to us all. The young skaters like Bradie, Alyssa, and Mariah, Karen Chen can learn from her... courage is doing the BEST you can at something you love, no matter what Medal you earn, or don’t earn.... ( watching this during the Corona epidemic,,,march 27,2020..) Thank you Gracie!
Skater of my dreams. Please come back to us. I'll cry so hard next year because she's missing. It doesn't matter if she wins or not. I want to see her dance.
I always look forward the the very end of Gracie Gold’s performances- her end pose or stance is always my favorite. This time, the way she moved her hands upward with such a flourish was so...there aren’t words enough to describe how it makes me feel. She tells stories with her arm movements in every single piece she attacks
Her jumping technique reminds me of Polina Tsurskaya... or vice versa. Tightening in after the vault in a way that creates a "delay" and such a cool look.
Gracie has one of the most satisfying air positions and rotation speed to her jumps I've ever seen. Some of the ladies now are great but no one's jumps scratch the itch on my brain like her's did lol. A lot of the ladies now, especially the Russian girls, always look out of control and sloppy in the air. It's even more obvious now that I've watched some of Gracie's old programs again.
This is my favorite performance of all time. This embodies everything in figure skating. I love her. I also love how she walked past frank and hugged the other guy first. There was already some tension going on between skater and coach.
You won't see this type of quality anymore. I enjoy the old school figure skating where everyone was airborne before the quarter and edges were important. Now they're doing cheated quads with blade drop 270 degree pre-rotation
Overall beautiful and elegant skater, from costumes to choreography she was the total package. Not knocking our current champion who's costumes and hair seems to be thrown together. Hope Gracie continues improve in time for the 2022 Olympics! She had her jumps back this year but let the pressure get to her! We all wish you the best Gracie! 💖
Unlike Yulia Lipnitskaya, Gracie got lots of supports that is extremely crucial for her in order to make a recovery. Yulia got none of the supports Gracie has, so Gracie is very fortunate.

So few ladies will acheive this level of technique and artistry. Having Frank Carroll as her coach obviously helped to instill this kind of talent in her. It would have been amazing if this could have been sustained, but as Gracie says in her new book, she just didn't have the coping mechanisms to do it.
But even here, her first lutz was tilted in the air and her second lutz was landed a bit awkwardly. Most of the other jumps had very little height. The jump that did have really good height was the triple flip which she fell out of. I just watched her 2021 Cranberry Long program, and while this program is overall greatly superior, in that program her first triple lutz was better than anything here, and her 2nd double axel was better than here. In this program she did have a very nice fluidity, and very good energy at the end. And as the comentator said, she emoted and even smiled.
Can someone explain to me how she won even with the little hiccup/fall she had? Genuinely curious! It was a beautiful skate and I can't wait to see if she can get to this level again!
She is pretty. Still skating today. The audience came to their feet here, wonder if this was the peak of USA figure skating . Just watched her skate in 2022 Nationals at a rink more suited for a pee wee hockey game.
She's good. but what happened to her in the current years? She's still good but not as good as her performance here. hopefully she could improve herself in the fututre
She needs to get back to her competition weight of 117, as I recall, get her jumps back from her old coach and realize her dad screwed up, not her-- parents of stars always go through weird times and screw up. Dad just needs a little rehab.
I hate when ladies do that half-assed Ina Bauer. If you are going to do it, do it properly like Tonya Harding or Karen Kwan. It can really be a beautiful move when they take their time.
Did anyone notice how Gracie (while stepping off the ice), ignored Frank Carrol and walked up to another person and hugged him straight off? Did Gracie not like Frank even in the beginning?
Crystal Stanford She just got in a really bad place, she developed eating disorder and depression (I think), and after suffering several losses because of that she took a break from skating to recover.

After watching Champion of Sochi’s performance right before this, I just don’t understand how this incredible skating deserved no medal. In my opinion she’s way more amazing in speed ,tech, even artistry than the champion. But how comes she ranked lower than Adelina? Something had certainly gone wrong in Sochi. I feel sorry for Gracie...

Gracie's competition dresses always blew me away. She's bloody gorgeous in every aspect.
Lol look at her now
@@qwertyicedancer2776 what about her now
@@qwertyicedancer2776 nothing funny. She is struggling with depression and eating disorder
@@qwertyicedancer2776 look at you! Being ugly for an unattractive comment!
She was immaculately dressed always. Gorgeous ice princess for sure.
I find myself tearing up while watching this because she was so happy and I wish it could have always been like that for her

Watching this while in the middle of her memoir!

It's so sad, Gracie Gold was such an amazing skater, and she still is it's just sad that the pressure killed her... :(
nai727 I know! I so hope she makes a come back
Her dad got caught using drugs, so that upsets the kids and they don't perform as well.

I wish people would stop saying they feel sad for her. Why? She overcame so much. That's not sad, that's wonderful.

i miss this gracie. she was incredible here. Love this performance. She has to be one of the most talented skaters ever to not get a world, olympic or even gpf medal.
She has an Olympic team bronze and a Jr World silver, that's something.
Maybe you shouldn't be missing the version of her with an eating disorder...

Mine too. I was going to go to nationals this year, but if she is not there I'm not interested.
Brooke Grace omg you were gonna go to nationals?! Great job!
I went to nationals in 2017, I was going to watch Gracie, but I had to go. :(
@@buttycheeks8954 they meant going to nationals to watch the skaters, not compete.
Such a well constructed program. We miss Gracie Gold. She has great stroking, gets into the ice. Technically beautiful jumps and artistry too.
One of the best female figure skating programs I have ever seen. Beautiful music, choreography and costume.
I'm reading her memoir rn. She talks about this skate/the situation leading up and thoughts during in depth, in it. So now I have to rewatch it. So good!
Same, I went to rewatch every performance she talks about, this and the Olympics and US Nationals 2016 and her East of Eden SP

Rooting for Gracie Gold's comeback for nationals and Olympics!!!

such a beautiful skater... she is definitely peaking at the right time. Go Gracie!!!
This is just one of those magical performances...
This is magical, thank you, Gracie
i wonder if she ever comes back and watches this performance, i hope she is doing ok x
Her jumping technique reminds me of Polina Tsurskaya... or vice versa. Tightening in after the vault in a way that creates a "delay" and such a cool look.
Loved this music for her.
i miss this. seeing it in person was an experience i'll never forget

This give me chills every time... I miss Gracie
I'm still hoping she can take inspiration from Katelyn Osmond and not give up just yet. She's such a beautiful skater...
This is my favorite performance of all time. This embodies everything in figure skating. I love her. I also love how she walked past frank and hugged the other guy first. There was already some tension going on between skater and coach.
one of my personal favorite figure skating programs!
I love Gracie she is so talented and she will always be my #1 favorite figure skater

참좋아했던 그레이시~ 정말 더 성장할수있었기때문에 가슴이아프네요 ㅠ ㅠ
She needs to come back
Fabulous!.. Зациклились на прыжках, но каковы прокаты, пластика!.. Одним словом, полное соответствие имени СТИЛЮ: грациозно! 🍓🔥⚡
Those Edea Ice Fly skating boots really make her fly on the ice! Especially with John Wilson's Pattern 99 freestyle blades mounted on the soles!
But even here, her first lutz was tilted in the air and her second lutz was landed a bit awkwardly. Most of the other jumps had very little height.

Gorgeous skater in every way !
Here am wanting to be a professional skater but I can't skate properly even holding on to the wall I still fall ;-;

I understand she is competing in a Grand Prix event this year. She wants to slowly make her comeback.
Isn’t she too old at this point?

Lmao her score blew everyone out of the water

You will completely disregard the technicals, once you saw her enjoy what she's doing 🥺🙌
lovely dress
Best American ever
Gracie's 3 Lutz is amazing
She's good. but what happened to her in the current years? She's still good but not as good as her performance here. hopefully she could improve herself in the fututre
She needs to get back to her competition weight of 117, as I recall, get her jumps back from her old coach and realize her dad screwed up, not her-- parents of stars always go through weird times and screw up. Dad just needs a little rehab.
She's getting treated for depression and an eating disorder. She's getting herself together to be in a better place.
@@gallantrycrossx1915 don't put weight on here. She's in recovery from an eating disorder and doing well now.
I hate when ladies do that half-assed Ina Bauer. If you are going to do it, do it properly like Tonya Harding or Karen Kwan. It can really be a beautiful move when they take their time.
Right. I think she is awesome but Ive never seen her do an ina bauer. She does an isNOTa bauer.
she did an Ina Bauer but she was going into a 3F
I miss the broken leg sitspin, now you need to have it in a combo or whatever...I miss the old rules/grading system (skate canada)
True bronze winner at Sochi
ماشاالله عليها

she is THE IT GIRL

Did anyone notice how Gracie (while stepping off the ice), ignored Frank Carrol and walked up to another person and hugged him straight off? Did Gracie not like Frank even in the beginning?
8:50 I hate how the commentator already knew Ashley was going yes or yes
Stay on the gas pedal, we luv, ya.
Gracie I will see you in Mitchell South Dakota
can someone enlighten me? what happened to her? I read the comments and everyone says they're missing her or smth
Crystal Stanford She just got in a really bad place, she developed eating disorder and depression (I think), and after suffering several losses because of that she took a break from skating to recover.
She is supposedly going to come back to competing so we should see her again soon
Thank you so much! I get it now. I'll be waiting for her return i hope she's doing good
