1998 Olympic Skating Competition Highlights
Released in DVD by Image Entertainment (24 November, 1998)
Starring: Olympic Gold-1998
Average review score: 
Olympics WOW!This DVD has some pretty amazing features I've never seen before. Stuff like, at any time while you're watching the competition, you press a cursor key and get a bio of the person on the screen. There are some very cool multi-angle things on the disc, too. It lets you check out the exhibition pieces from different angles. The other discs in the set are equally impressive. I recommend this set if for no other reason than you get to show off to your friends why DVD is so cool!
1998 Olympic Skating Competition HighlightsI am sorry for evaluation to have become slow. Goods arrived safely. I am very much satisfied. Thank you very much.
a great video for figure skatingThis a great video for figure skating. It runs about 80 minutes. It features the battle for gold between Michelle Kwan and Tara Lipinski - one of the most hotly contested figure skating competitions in the Olympic History. Also this video shows off the incredible talents of Eldredge, Stojko, Kulik... in the Men's competitions. The DVD of the 'Exhibition Highlights' also is a very good video.

Slow motion--forget about it!Attention skaters: if you're buying this DVD because you think you'll be able to examine complex moves beautifully executed in slow motion, forget it! This DVD is encoded so that that "operation is prohibited." You can pause it, but that's it. (And no, it's not my DVD player; I have 2 players, both of which can go slow motion through other DVDs, but not with this one.)
Good show, but...
A very good video for figure skating
Moreover, I found the extra features that do exist, like the on-screen bios, more of an annoyance than an asset. More skating, less talk & fluff, if you please!
That said, it might be worth buying for heartthrob Philippe Candeloro's swashbuckler routine.
Good show, but...Well, it's overally good dvd, but as one of the reviewers wrote, you can only pause it during watching. I don't know who made such decision and why - there's really no point in it. But the good news is - if you have PC, it's very easily to overcome such minor annoyance - just copy all the stuff to your hardrive, and enjoy it to the fullest.
So my final scores are:
TV + standalone DVD: 2 stars
PC + internal DVD: 4 stars

A very good video for figure skatingThis a very good video that I can find for figure skating. It runs about 80 minutes. The video presents programmes from all the excellent medal winning skaters of 1998 Winter Olympic. Free from the pressure of the judges, the exhilarathing, free-form, anything-goes exhibitions will delight any fan of the art of skating.
