Denise Biellmann 1996 Canadian Pros artistic program

Lick It/No Limit
Performing Artists: Twenty Fingers/2 Unlimited

[@karllieck9064]

Are you deaf? The audience loved it. Denise was the best. No one came close to her fearless imaginative choreography, music choices-which she skated to with great precision and power. She was my favorite skater of all time. The others just seemed so tamed and boring compared to her.

[@metsedudenjnj9776]

I was there, the audience didnt love it

[@JessG_20]

She is impossibly amazing! I saw a fellow figure skater do a Biellman spin for the first time when I was 10. I didn't know what it was called at that point in time or who Denise Biellman was, but I thought it was the coolest spin I'd ever seen and I was sooo jealous of the girl doing it. I love Denise's skating style and energy. She was 34 in this competition! Very inspirational.

[@MissFit29]

Her jumps are higher and better 15 years AFTER her world title. That's crazy.

[@AviyaFowler]

I just saw a small clip of her spinning and she's automatically become like my favorite female skater. :3

[@billbright1755]

Every fiber a well tuned skating machine. Supreme interpretation of choreography. Stunning beauty combined with phenomenal athletic abilities. 10 is not high enough for this Lady,, Flawless!

[@kevjao267]

this woman is so amazing!!!!!!!

[@Extruckmaker]

Jag tror att Denise Biellman är en av de mest brillant skatere någonsin

[@tarantulabunny]

I love when they are like "so much energy from the OLDEST woman in the competition" like you are old and decrepit at 34

[@karolinah.8032]

"In the competition". It meant there is nobody IN THE COMPETITION who is older than her

[@tarantulabunny]

I know I was just kidding around

[@anonymous-xy5ue]

I know-amazing that she could still walk at that age!

[@kastrafior1487]

Denise, tu es la meilleure et nous t'AIMONS !

[@jackkentdocall4790]

the only reason I watched figure skating!

[@julieschultz6363]

34? That's ANCIENT for a competitive skater. Very cool.

[@anonymous-xy5ue]

It shouldn't be-Ive seen a 36 year old mother of 3 landing triple jumps, ageism is the problem

[@FoosResearch]

That's a rare beauty indeed.

[@espinaca79]

I loooooove this program!

[@billbright1755]

Superb skill level on ice. A striking resemblance to Judy Norton. She hammered that ice with supreme authority. Her equilibrium astounding.🇨🇭

[@pasimaenpaa2360]

totally incredible performance!!! it was fun, speed, and especially her trademark, the biellmann-pirouette. bravo!!! thank you for posting this. much appreciated, ballinagra13.

[@jackkentdocall4790]

worlds most dominate skater!!

[@kastrafior1487]

Phenomenal lady, our swiss artist idol !

[@kimcavagna2082]

My favorite EVER by far!!!!!!!

[@psbfan01]

Awesome program! I remember seeing this on TV back in the mid 90s. Instantly she became one of my favorite skaters.

[@L.Spencer]

I remember seeing it but I hated it. Now I can see it a little more objectively.

[@kimcavagna2082]

Wow she is so ahead of her time!!!!!!!

[@nuciide]

so incredibly powerful & fluid jumps. what a master

[@taylorvirgilio989]

She is amaZAYN!!! WOW!!! She did very well on the routine.

[@Blubb5000]

4:00 That’s what you all came for!

[@petersurdo4984]

After watching this performance I felt like I went through puberty again.

[@7smile]

denise, du bisch eifach super!!!!!

[@mistygirl26103]

omg love her!!! ive been practicing how to the biellman spin (on land, cuz thats how crazy i am) and there is no way i could achieve that

[@planningwithjohn]

Do you have Liz Manley's performance from this show? It was such a great program.

[@gladitsnotme]

the judges didnt think THAT was artistic?! BLIND I SAY!

[@GliteringJacky92]

is it flipped??

[@espinaca79]

It is amazing how the audience does not react to this.

[@vigorvitales]

I have to agree with th audience, 'cause as usual, that was tacky. She's a powerful skater, but her programs, costume, and choice of music are almost always cheesy.

[@NOWALUSA]

espinaca79 ..... It's bc she is FIERCE and her energy is outstanding that cannot be matched by no other skater. They can't deal with someone like her bc she keeps it real and her taste of music/costumes is her own. Not fake as other's we've seen on the ice.

[@PhoenixRSmith]

Im a black dude and when I saw her for the first time she scared me she was like the Govenator in drag but her program had no mistakes lol

[@99skatingstar]

aww she didnt do any axels!! =(

[@whoamitoday5725]

Luv this skater...cute 'reveal' and of course her Trademark spin that is still being done today! By females and some males! Exquisite 👌 (Secret Wish...to watch these events without commentators feeling the need to talk ALL through the performance...or at all!) They are going talk about it afterwards anyway with replays Are there any programs from other countries avail to watch where commentators are at least silent until after the performance???? 🙏🙏

[@Pandafan00]

I figured out that she's was a clockie when I saw her toe loop! xD

[@bonniemiller274]

When I was a skater I watched her videos because I was a clockie and none of my coaches were!

[@vigorvitales]

LOL!

[@carabinieri210]

IS THIS OPRAH SPEAKING??

[@carolinaalcalde]

So difficult to do what she does!

[@stardream7585]

grossartig, wenn man etwas von Tanz versteht, ist Denise unschlagbar!

[@vistaprime]

I am not sure a song about cunnilingus went over well with the judges. not sure why she chose this. Perhaps a feminist statement of some kind, not sure.

[@bryanthomas1495]

Definitely obvious that English is her second language. Otherwise I’m not sure she would have chosen this music lol.

[@oatmealboy6]

It gets a 10/10 from me. Oh wait, there's skating too.

[@nuciide]

so the only way this could be better is if she was on roller skates

[@hopelightful]

she looks mis Obama , but white

[@vigorvitales]

Governator in drag! LOL!!!

[@user-sf5fk6ox4c]

Love her strength, but her choreography is cheesy, atrocious. For someone so fit, you'd think she'd make wiser choices in costume, music, and moves. Wasted program.

[@vigorvitales]

Gawdy costumes, tacky choreography,..why does she waste her talent and incredible physique on such flimsy programs?! Artistic? No, tacky.
