I saw his daughter skate in the 1990s many times. She and her dad have similar flow and skating lines. I miss skating back then. With compulsory figures, I feel people had better edges and spins.
He was not only a good technician but he was very musical and artistic. I love his spin positions/variations, quick, clean footwork, his arm movements and general creative nuances ... so unusual for his day. This was a great piece of choreography. Thank you for uploading this 🙂
This was the era when everything was so archaic in Japan, the male skaters were told to skate in a masculine dignified attitude, Nobuo sensei recalled when he ever showed a glimpse of a smile when he was able to land a jump or even when he had his palm face upward, the Federation gave him hell of a scolding. Fun times indeed
Для 1966года крутое катание! Этот вид спорта только зарождался и многие элементы сейчас (2020г) используют для разминки, а в те времена это отдельно проработанные элементы программы!!!
@Lisa B I totally get what you mean ! Here, the accent isn't even that bad (just an old accent) but I really wasn't expecting to hear French. Until I thought "well, it sounds familiar" and realized it was actually my mother langage ^^'
After the fall, the commentator is like : "That's too bad. But in free skate, especially men free skate, the judges aren't always very severe about falls. All the more so since the Japanese is giving his best." I guess times have changed.
I think they difference would be the quality of the ice between then and now. 1. Outside so probably not as smooth. 2. Resurfacing was not as easy as didn't have a machine all done by hand. 3. Probably not resurfaced as regularly during the there course of the competition. So hitting a rut that throws off your balance and nothing could be done about it. I guess such falls and wobbles were more common because of the skating conditions.
Watching figure skating and ice dancing is my newest youtube obsession lol. Still learning the differences between the 6 jumps lol. This guy was brilliant!
Jumps CW and spins CCW. Amazing :) I’ve always adored Yuka’s skating and it’s clear she inherited her father’s soft knees! Thank you so much for this wonderful video!
Just before Mao Asada's free performance at the Sochi Olympics, her coach Nobuko Sato said to her, "Don't worry, if anything happens, I'll definitely go and help you out."
Whoa! Amazing skate by Mr. Sato. I do have to ask though, how many skaters out there are like him, in that they jump and spin in opposite directions? I, myself am a righty, but I feel like I would be most comfortable jumping counterclockwise (except for the loop jump), and spinning clockwise. I also favor doing backward and forward crossovers clockwise. What a mess I am lol.
The things I end up watching during the quarantine....
Same 😅
🤣🤣
Omg, me
Aaron Shruby Good choice, compared to so much GARBAGE online! i enjoyed watching this.
@@maggiepatterson7949 me too, just recently found his wife from the same year. It was meh!!
Skating skills, edge and flow was way ahead of his time.
佐藤先生、綺麗なスピン‼️
ノーブルなスケーティング、しかも凄いスピード‼️
流石、真央ちゃんの先生です❣️
この当時は
アスリートの生活やら環境やらをバックアップして
スケートに集中出来るという、今の環境とは違った状態で
しかも敗戦国だったのに
それでもここまでレベルが高いのは
本人の努力以外の何物でもないね
こんなに素晴らしい選手だったとは‼︎
素敵ですね〜💕
貴重な映像のアップを有難うございます。見られてとても嬉しいです。お客様の拍手が温かいですね。
His daughter's Yuka skating style was similar, high speed, good flow.
He had better basic skating skills than any do today. He is a true artist.
This proves there hasn't been a time when japanese skaters didn't have good knees and flow.

UPありがとうございます!
お嬢様である有香さん、最近では真央さんを指導されてる御姿しかみたことなかったのですが、まちがいなく今のフィギュア界をひっぱったおひとりですね。
ノーブルでしなやかに演技されてて素敵!
お衣装も時代を感じさせられます。
1:46 God I'm so jealous of his outside edge control! Beautiful form.

初めて拝見しましたが
現在の選手にも全く引けを取らない
キレとスピード感とエッジワーク
多少のミスはありましたが
この方が現在も指導者として
指示される理由が一つ分かりました
貴重な映像。こんなの残ってるなんて!!
そしてやはりスケーティング上手い！
This video really is quite amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Floskate, Mr. Sato's performance was fabulous! Thank you for sharing!
スピンの時とジャンプの時の回転方向が逆とは！これは珍しいし難しそうだ！！
Thank you for showing a lefty jumper, even if he wasn't a lefty spinner. This lefty skater appreciates it!
Amen from this one
Just what I was thinking, I was sure his jumping was different but thought that he did jumps in botha directions which is what seemed to catch my eye.
Красивое катание, быстрое, реберное, скольжение что надо, для того времени очень симпатично, особенно мило- бабочка)))

すごく貴重な映像。そして、素晴らしい。
Great technique... A triple Salchow in 1966 is great... such a sweet man! Continues to do great things for japan...
Beautiful skating, very elegant and seemingly effortless.
いきなりバッククロスで凄いスピードですね❗
安定感があって、丁寧な滑り✨

Veryelegant. I love watching these old clips. I loved the way they skated and looked back in the day
貴重な映像ですね😌
なんて滑らかなスケーティング✨
What an amazing find! Thank you so much! His edge work was outstanding.
It took me sooo long to realise that the commentator was in fact speaking French.
French is my first langage...
Chloe M do you live in France or an English speaking country?
@@FOC-xu2kw In France :)
@Lisa B I totally get what you mean !
Here, the accent isn't even that bad (just an old accent) but I really wasn't expecting to hear French.

@@FOC-xu2kw Thank you. Stay safe too ! ☺️
佐藤ゆかさんのお父上だよね
白黒だけど､東京OGの後なんだよね
貴重な映像をありがとう
Even his fall was light and graceful. He’s magnificent!
THIS is why figure skating used to actually emphasize the figures. Those edges. Wow. He's better than the modern skaters.
After the fall, the commentator is like :
"That's too bad. But in free skate, especially men free skate, the judges aren't always very severe about falls. All the more so since the Japanese is giving his best."
I guess times have changed.

So hitting a rut that throws off your balance and nothing could be done about it.

Wow! Clockwise jumper and anti clockwise spinner 😳 Lovely edge work and elegant positions. And no judging anonymity! Thank you for posting
Floskate thank you, yet again. Your channel is just incredible! So grateful!
He has great musicality and flow. Heard of him but never saw a video till now. Thanks.
Watching figure skating and ice dancing is my newest youtube obsession lol. Still learning the differences between the 6 jumps lol. This guy was brilliant!
I'm here since accidentally discovering Yuzuru Hanyu this month😍
@@yyvette omg Same
@@yyvette How come?
Keep them coming. Just fabulous
始めてみました、映像残ってるんですね。
Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing.
I love to watch the old school skaters to see how much has progressed since the time they skated...wonderful!
This holds up 100%
Удивительно легкие, воздушные прыжки!🌷
昔は審判員の国籍が明らかにされていて、その点は良かった。
Jumps CW and spins CCW. Amazing :) I’ve always adored Yuka’s skating and it’s clear she inherited her father’s soft knees! Thank you so much for this wonderful video!
Fantastic
just pure clean skating..no fancy costume to take away from the artistry
Unusual to see a skater landing on left foot. Lovely.
Lovely skating. Even his fall had class! *ah, c'est dosage...* to the few dislikes whodont get it.
That was an amazing free skate by Mr. Sato! I had know idea he was so talented. He had gorgeous edge work and speed.
Thank you for posting. So awesome 🤩
WOW, great edges! He is the father of Yuka Sato! Her mother was also a champion. That explains a lot!
How interesting that he jumps to the right but spins to the left! I’ve never seen that before.
This was so cool to watch.. sunglasses must of been SUPER hip back then 🕶️
It was held outside
@@karaamundson3964 aha I see 👀🕶️😁
Thank you so much for sharing, Thank you!
Очень красивое катание!!!
Simply amazing
Wow this is joy to watch. Thanks for sharing!
Quarantine has us watching the randomest things I’m not complaining though ended up watching all of it and thoroughly enjoyed it lol.
Amazing program. Too bad about the fall!
Still handled it with class!
とってもお上手ですね―
エッジがゆったり大きいですね。
Love figure skating best sport in the Olympics
Dude lands so smoothly, woah
とても正統な美しいスケーティング！
どことなく小塚崇彦さんみがある…気がする…
THANKS for posting!
佐藤コーチですね。私見ですが冒頭のジャンプの入り方からの繋ぎ、中間部のキャメルスピンが真央ちゃんそっくりというか、真央ちゃんの演技が佐藤コーチ直伝だと云う事がよーく解る動画です。佐藤コーチなくしては、ソチの素晴らしい演技はあり得なかったのですね。とても感じ入りました！
All the judges look SCARY !!
Just before Mao Asada's free performance at the Sochi Olympics, her coach Nobuko Sato said to her, "Don't worry, if anything happens, I'll definitely go and help you out."
Really great skater
В те времена лутц был настоящий, с длинной дуги назад-наружу.
He's glowing

마오 코치 아니야? 젊고 멋진 순간이네~
Yuka skated in her knees. You could hear a pin drop when she skated because she was so in her knees.
Cool! Any other English comments?
He was a masterful skater
He was coaching Mao Asada.
I can't really tell - but was he actually skating outside?
Yes, programs were skated outside until sometime in the late '60s
Floskate, thank you for another wonderful find from the past.Did he not use the same programme in the previous season ?
pepitone201 IIRC, he skated this Poet & Peasant program for 8 seasons straight...and I don’t think he skated to any other program internationally!!!
@@nondescriptnyc Thank you .
@@floskate Victor Petrenko would be so proud. Mr Ukraine got three or four seasons out of his free skate in the early 1990s.

대단한 오빠야네.
Can you find results of figures from this event? I've searched unsuccessfully
Хорошее владение коньком. А всё остальное с нашим временем нельзя сравнить.
浅田真央さんのコーチですね（╹◡╹）
演技はともかく、得点があんなふうに表現されるとはね。あの隣の女性は山下コーチなのかな。スケ連の人かな。(^^;)
I see why his skaters were good spinners
のぶお先生の初めて見た。ババと同い年。ババも小4年生位から後楽園。池袋あたりで滑っていた。我が家にもお金があったら、今頃はコーチ？WWW
長くない？！ 五分以上滑ってる。
Sato bloodline taking over figure skating 😄 Nobua Sato, Yuka Sato, Shun Sato
well, shun is not related. threre are about 2 million Sato in Japan.
Катает как Ковтун и Лазукин😃
Anybody else realize he spins righty but jumps lefty?
유튜브야 갑자기..? 일본 스케이터에 불어 설명.. ㅋㅋㅋ
Aaaand that's why the scoring system had to be codified
ツルスケ最高だ
よく残ってたなぁ。
点数6点満点だったのかな。
