浪漫永恒·Brian Boitano
Calgary, Saddledome, 20 February 1988: medal ceremony for the men's individual figure skating event: (L-R) Brian ORSER from Canada, 2nd, Brian BOITANO, USA, 1st, and Viktor PETRENKO from Soviet Union, 3rd.
1988年冬季奥运会男子花式滑冰，赛前就被北美媒体称为「两个Brian的战争」，一个是上届银牌得主加拿大的Brian Orser，另一个是美国的Brian Boitano。
他们两人先前曾经有十次交手的经验，结果是Orser取得7胜3败的战绩较佳。可是在1988年时，两人的实力相当，赛前谁都没有把握一定会赢对方。
几年来，Orser有个老毛病，就是在大比赛时会紧张，以致影响演出和成绩，一直和冠军失之交臂。1984年奥运赢得银牌，1984年世界锦标赛排名第2，1985年和1986年的世界锦标赛也都是第2，一直到1987年的世界锦标赛，他终于在世界锦标赛，突破这个无形的障碍，取得他生平第一座冠军杯。
起步较晚的Boitano，却是比Orser早一年，在1986年就取得世界锦标赛的冠军宝座。
在1988年卡加利里冬奥会男子花式滑冰比赛，Orser在短曲项目取得领先，Boitano紧追在后。这一部分占总成绩的一半，还需要看长曲的50％才能决定最后名次。
通常顶尖选手在国际大型比赛如奥运会或是世界锦标赛，他们为了名次，都不敢做出最难的动作，以免失误。可是Boitano这次却不理会这些，他在长曲项目时，拚出全力，连番做出三转跳，虽然难免有些瑕疵，但整体而言还是都能完成动作。
看到Boitano近乎没有缺点的演出之后，Orser的压力又降临，因为他是地主加拿大唯一的金牌希望，因此背负着夺金的重大压力。他在比赛中，一次连续3次跳跃，落地只有一点点不稳，并不影响他的成绩。可是后来体力有些下降，他自己把一次三转跳降成二转跳，注定他的失败命运。
裁判给分的时间里，有4位裁判给Orser第一，3个裁判给Boitano第一，另外有两人给他们两人平手。根据当时的规则，如果裁判判决平手同分时，要根据技术评分来判定名次，而技术评分是两位裁判都给Boitano较高分，因此这两票就再分给Boitano，使得他以5比4胜过Orser，夺走金牌。
私底下两人是很要好的朋友，因此有了这种结果，Boitano也觉得有些过意不去，他知道Orser非常想要这面金牌，但结果已定，只有安慰这位好朋友。

<P>呵呵,他和纳尔万迪安像?不觉得哦.</P><P>看了楼主的介绍,觉得奥瑟尔也够倒霉的,除了87年世界锦标赛,其他大赛拿的都是银牌,千年老二的命.</P><P>BOITANO是很猛,三周半上了俩,第一个还加了2T的连跳.若论难度,那毫无疑问应该判BOITANO第一吧. PS 他把手举过头顶的那种跳跃看着实在别扭啊.</P><P>第一张照片里的三位现在都是大叔了,VICTOR胖得尤其厉害. BOITANO现在为什么要戴个眼镜滑冰呢,不过这样也很个性.</P> <P>1988年卡尔加里冬奥会Brian Boitano的自由滑表演现已上传，考虑到喜欢Brian Boitano的人不是很多，再加上这里已经设立了一个回顾帖，就直接在此公布地址、不再在月光宝盒板块发新帖了，以节省论坛空间。</P><P>提取地址：<a href="http://www.mofile.com" target="_blank" >http://www.mofile.com</A></P><P>提取码：8698685348412885</P><P>过期时间：2005-01-30</P> <H1>Brian Boitano</H1>

<P><B>Brian Anthony Boitano</B> (born October 22, 1963) is an American figure skater from Sunnyvale, California. Once a champion in the amateur ranks, he became a professional skater following the 1988 season.</P>
<P>Boitano is probably best remembered for winning the much celebrated <I>Battle of the Brians</I> over Canadian Brian Orser at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary. Heading into the final free skating portion of the competition (worth 50% of the overall total), Boitano had a slight lead over Orser, but the lead was so minuscule that the winner of the free skate was guaranteed to win the gold medal. Boitano went on to skate the performance of his life and win the gold, landing 8 triple jumps including two triple axels and a triple flip-triple toe loop combination. The performance is considered to be among the very best in the history of the sport, which is particularly impressive given the pressure of the Olympic Games as well as intense media scrutiny surrounding the <I>Battle of the Brians</I>. To this day, the <I>Sports Illustrated</I> cover featuring Brian Boitano landing his second triple axel of the program marks the only time a male figure skater has appeared on the cover of the magazine.</P>
<P>Following his victory in Calgary as well as another gold medal at the World Championships in Budapest, Boitano turned professional. He went onto dominate competitions in the professional ranks, winning 10 straight professional competitions, including 5 consecutive World Professional Championship titles and 4 consecutive wins at the Challenge of Champions. During this five-year stretch, Boitano did not make a single technical error in his programs. In June 1993, the International Skating Union (ISU) introduced a clause, known as the "Boitano rule", which allowed professionals to reinstate as 'amateur' or 'eligible' skaters. This had been the result of Boitano's active involvement during the early 90's, which saw professionals being allowed in the Olympic Games in the sports of tennis and basketball. Boitano reinstated to have a crack at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway. Going into the Olympics as a gold medal favorite among a star-studded field, Boitano uncharacteristically missed his triple axel combination during the short program -- for the first time ever, according to Scott Hamilton -- and this proved extremely costly, knocking Boitano completely out of medal contention. He fought back to finish 6th.</P>
<P>Boitano's signature jump, the <I>Tano triple lutz</I> or simply the <I>Tano</I>, is considered to be the most difficult jump in figure skating. Although triple axels and "quads" (quadruples) are on their face more difficult, the Tano requires the jumper to raise one arm above his head while performing the jump. The fact that one arm is raised dramatically reduces the jumper's angular momentum, making a Tano triple far more difficult than a normal triple.</P></DIV>
上周看了《北京２００８》，才知道了Boitano和Orser。他们既是竞争对手，又是好朋友哎，zhenya和Alexei就让人寒心啊正因为９４年冬奥会职业选手纷纷落马，才显得G&G的不容易不过现在职业表演让人感觉还是怪怪的 encyclopedia这个词是"百科全书"的意思吗?我一时想不起来 如果我没记错的话，是百科全书的意思！！ 我喜欢他们俩，谢谢楼主的介绍和视频，这种年代久远的东西实在是不好找啊！ <P>我觉得Brian Boitano长的很想一位好莱坞明星.他的名字我不记得啦.真的很象..........</P>
