Maybe this should be the videos of amazing turners thread.  Posted Image

Here's Daniil Simkin doing some fancy turns and then an astonishing double tour that takes off from one leg!

Thanks, Mme. Hermine, for another video surprise that actually tells us a lot about the state of the art.

Sarafanov's eleven double turns in the air --  is this something of a record?  "Balon" doesn't do this kind of movement justice.  His legs are springs.

That is one amazing Jester, Mme H, complete with a preview of Odette's 'swan pose' at the end. Thanks for posting. :)

Don't know, but here is the curtain call.  Maybe someone can identify the curtain.  That "braaah - voh" certainly sounds American to me.

p.s. yeah, an interesting. rather unusual curtain - nothing one would see over here, I think...
