Wishing Yulia all the best in her retirement from professional figure skating! We'll miss you!

15 years old? What am I doing with my life.

Shes practiced this piece so many times it looks almost as if shes free styling.

It's 2023 and I still can't get over this. Omg. Yulia, we miss your skating so much.

Годы идут, а этот танец на льду всё ещё переворачивает душу...Спасибо Юлечке за этот шедевр на века

I'm not even Russian but I feel so proud of her haha

She looks like she's just up here doing her regular routines instead of THE Olympic. She made it look so easy. The spin, the landing, the balance, everything's just absolutely flawless.

Прошло уже 10 лет.. время пролетело словно мгновение, но этот легендарный прокат до сих пор играет на струнах души. Юленька, наша фея

This is still incredible 9 years later and still made me cry again 😂

15 year old skating at the olympics, and I'm sat on youtube

Time flies... she was so young and incredibly talented here, I can’t believe it’s been 6 years already and she’s expecting her first child :0

Сколько бы ни прошло лет, а этот прокат бесподобен. Юлия выдающаяся фигуристка, красивая, талантливая. Своим катанием она сделала этот безумный мир чуточку добрее.

Сколько прошло лет!!!!..... А до сих пор без слез не могу смотреть на Юлечкин прокат на Олимпиаде 2014! Какая была замечательная девочка! Как жаль, что не сберегли ее в большом спорте! Почему у нас все так? Почему разбрасываемся лучшими?????

When I was 15.... I learned how to tie my shoelaces...

Now I see why Yuri Plisetky from Yuri on Ice was based off of her. Absolutely Beautiful

Many Russian ladies emerged after Yulia, and many records are broken. But the best Russian female skater is still this young Yulia, with pure, natural emotions pouring out of her program

I'm going to be honest, so many years have passed and yet I have not seen another routine that moves me as much as this one does.

I love the way that she represents the little girl in red in Spielberg's movie 'Schindler's list' and using the populair soundtrack of that movie.😢

Well happy birthday to her, she turns 21 yesterday(5 June 2019).

Юлия ЛИПНИЦКАЯ навсегда останется одной из лучшей российской фгуристкой! Такой танец, музыка, костюм! Ей 15 лет. Браво!

No abnoxious music of choice or show off ego, just feelings poured into the sound of violin. Pure art. My tears started to fall as if she was gesturing I want to fly, I want to be free.

15 years old.. wow, what am I doing with my life lol

I'm definitely obsessed with figure skating after Spinning Out

Whenever i think about figure skating, this routine always comes up first. So iconic

I was 15 when I watched Yulia's performance to Schindler's List. I could not believe that someone my age was competing at the Olympics. I know Yulia isn't the most technical skater in terms of jumps, but there is something about the way she skates on the ice. She is such a lyrical skater with such beautiful lines and extensions and insane spins. Her program to Schindler's List is truly a masterpiece and really pulls on the heartstrings. Her retirement made me heartbroken but I'm glad that she found happiness now and has her own family.

Every once in a while I come back to this video, and each time I'm amazed as if I had never seen it before.

The thing is that Eteri has trained dancers more technically talented than Lipnitskaya. But nobody has been able to recreate the magic that was this performance. Her emotion and her expressivity - at just 15 years old - that's what's more out of this world than anything. And I don't think what she has can be taught.

Вот эта ее какая то духовная остранненость в исполнении, не изображение эмоций, а именно тихое проживание в себе и производит такой невероятный эффект. У меня мама так читала стихи, отстраненно, на одной тональности, но мурашки по коже были от такого прочтения

23год. И по прежнему никто не превзошол это выступление.)) Какая гармония. Супер. И через 10лет пересмотрю любуясь. Спасибо всем за труды.

That moment when you are 21 and you can barely wake up from the sofa to get a glass of water... 15 years old and a gold medal at the Olympics... this is insane

I don’t know why I cried while watching this

Юля умничка!!! Это выступление вошло в историю, это гениально!!!

Это движение, когда Юля опускает руки <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="262">4:22</a> , после него каждый раз начинаю плакать. Сколько боли в истории. Пусть всегда будет мир

Who’s here in 2020? And is obsessed with Yulia

It's 2020 and nobody beat this performance in my eyes. Too bad she ended her career soon after.

За гранью человеческих возможностей - скорость, лёгкость, гибкость, кажется, она даже не устала, всё так естественно... Потрясающе!!!

Сегодня ее номер звучит особенно пронзительно! Как напоминание всем о главном и настоящем, человеческом🙏❤

You look at her, and it feels as if she is lost in the dance. As if she does't even care there is ice, she just moves like someone not from this world. Her emotions and body are one and you can feel it in her dance. There is a story she is telling with her entire essence. If you did't know what Russian soul is- THIS is it.

The new generation may jump quadruples, but Yulia’s pirouettes and charisma are just on a whole different level. For me, she will always be the ONE Russian skater. Very sorry about what happened to this wonderful lady, wishing her a happy and healthy future!

Я же не один захожу сюда раз в месяц минимум что бы пересмотреть этот шедевр?😊😊😊

Юлечка!! Какая удивительная фигуристка! Сама нежность и очарование! Блестящий прокат!

I don't know anything about figure skating but I was captivated by her....I couldn't stop watching!

I hope that this program and Yulia will never be forgotten. Because this is hands-down the best free program there is and will be for a long time. God bless her.

8 years have passed, and yulia is still my favourite figure skater...

Юля, вы не выступаете уже, но хочу вам сказать - вы лучшая, самая пронзительная❤

This will always be my favorite skating ever. There are no words to explain how good she is. I've been watching many performances from many diferent skaters but this one feels diferent. She's one with the ice and the music. She makes you feel like she's dancing freely in her own world.

I'm proud to say that I watched this before watching Yuri on ice

Her career may be short-lived but this free skate will live forever as one of the most iconic figure skating programs ever performed

Almost half of the 2022 passed, I’m still watching this masterpiece and for sure, I will go back to this again and again, too phenomenal. None of the programs these days can reach this level. I first watched this program when the views here were 8M and now it's hitting 20M... Time flies. I hope this FS would be the highest views for women single skate for ever longer. I can't stop missing Yulia.

5 years later and this performance is still incredible!!

she was so insanely talented at such a young age, this is so impressive it's almost scary.. and hearing some of her backstory makes this a little sad to watch

До сих пор впрямь по струнам души. Прекрасная Юлия!!!⚘️⚘️⚘️🧡

2023 год. Пересматриваю уже в сотый раз этот потрясающий танец! Профессионально! Какие эмоции вызывает эта девочка! Спасибо, Юленька тебе за этот шедевр!!!! Люблю тебя!

She's the inspiration for the character of Yuri Plisetsky

She looks as if she’s skating an entire life story, it’s so beautiful. The emotion, her expressions, and she’s only 15?! I am the same age as she was back then, and she is incredible. Almost 7 years since she performed this, and I always come back to watch it 🤍!

Прошло 8 лет..... 20 миллионом просмотров и прокат, вошедший в золотые страницы МИРОВОГО фигурного катания ... на все времена ....

смотришь на Юлю и сердце щемит от ее танца под пронзительную музыку🙏🙏🙏

There may never be a spin as beautiful as what Yulia did.

This is one of my fav programs. I remember cheering for her during these Olympics. Just breathtaking. No one has been able to surpass this.

you could spend a lifetime analyzing all the intricate details in this performance. an incredible timeless masterpiece.

It's weird. The generation of quad jumping teens coming out of Russia now have destroyed the world record a dozen times over. But I can't see any of the preternatural grace Yulia has in them despite their scores. She's still one of the greatest Russian skaters alive.

Какие были времена... Без масок, полные трибуны, олимпиада в России и юная звёздочка на льду, которая покорила весь мир. Молодец!!! 🔥💖

Липницкая бесподобная 😊 а сейчас стала Мамой и это Лучшее на Свете Белом... Дай Бог ей Здоровья и Счастья Матери 😊

By far the best skate I’ve ever seen. I come back to this multiple times a year

Ever since seeing her on the Olympics, I'm not impressed by anyone else.

I lost count of how many times I've watched this!!!!!!!! Am I the only one?

Сегодня 23 год,а я не могу забыть это выступление.В самое сердце,и так легко все

Одно из лучших в истории женского ФК! Пересматриваю уже сбилась со счета сколько раз! Юля, пусть в твоей жизни тебя окружает счастье и благополучие!

5 years have passed, but I still can’t forget the little girl in a red coat on ice in Sochi. I watch this dance again and again. Thanks to everyone who created this masterpiece! This is unique!

For those wondering: Though she doesn't compete anymore from her retirement, she runs a skating academy with other skaters as a coach/teacher. She is doing well (I hope,) and is happily teaching little kids figure skating. :)

Снова и снова пересматриваю это выступление Юлии, вот уже 9 лет, и всегда мороз по коже. Для меня это самый лучший номер в фигурном катании! Этот взгляд в начале и в конце выступления, одухотворенное, завораживающее выступление!

Как же она превратила всю программу в невесомый полет сквозь боль!!!!! Торжество человеческого достоинства сквозь любые унижения:😢 всегда реву и от музыки этой и от Юлиного катания

JISOOS SHE WAS ONLY 15??!! That's talent right there

im 18 and i trip on air... geez She is so amazing

The fact that she looks just like the girl with the red dress in the movie makes this program even more amazing and emotional. Love you Yulia❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️

Юлия Липницкая- Лучшая из лучших за все годы Фигурного катания!

You know what is the most incredible? She matches her every move with the sound of violin in a magical way

Почти 8 лет прошло, а это до сих пор одна из лучших программ в женском катании.

Программа и прокат на всё времена! Непревзойденная и незабываемая Юлия Липницкая!

Out of this world. I have never seen anybody skates like she did. You see that flow, when she went in and out the jumps. Her spins, jumps, transition, everything, just flawless. Incredible talent.

i've seen this a thousand times and get chills every time

Honestly the most graceful thing I’ve ever seen in my life! Just beautiful to watch

Да! Никто не может повторить эти невероятные, красивейшие вращения!!🎉И, вообще потрясающая фигуристка, жаль что так рано закончила свою карьеру Пронеслась как ярчайшая комета!! Будь всегда счастлива, дорогая Юля!💗

i can't even believe this is humanly possible...

One of the most memorable ice-skating event of all time. Beautiful and breathtaking.

она, когда прыжки делает,будто на несколько секунд парит в воздухе. настоящая фея на льду!

I remember watching this live when I was 15 and falling in love with her and the sport. Even though I know the Russian athletes were stripped of their medals and records, I still believe she absolutely earned her gold with this performance. I know she's had her ups and downs since and wish her well!!!

I got chills before she even started cause when the music started you could see the passion in her eyes. And she killed it 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Am I the only one that thinks that Russia has always the best figure skater? I mean I've watched a lot of Russian figure skaters here in UKposts and they have beautiful performances.

It’s truly amazing how she wasn’t tired after she finished. Yulia is really the only female Russian single skater I’ve actually liked - and the first one Eteri destroyed.

Прошло уже столько лет, Юлю уже многие перепрыгали, но эти потрясающие вращения так никто и не смог повторить

I will never forget watching this performance when I was 14 years old. I had seen many figure skating performances but I was never a follower of figure skating. I figured I’d watch one performance just for kicks so I turned on the tv and saw this and was completely mesmerized. I’ve never seen such a fluid, raw, graceful and delicate performance by such a mature skater for her age. Her performance had an element that I had never seen in a figure skater before. She was like a little angel on the ice such a prodigy and so talented that it literally drew me in to the world of figure skating. She simply captivated me and since then I have watched too many gps, worlds, and Europeans to count. I’ve seen every performance by Zagitova, Medvedeva, Kihira, Kim, Sakimoto, Trusova, Shcherbakova, Kostornaia but still years later no skater has ever compared to Yulia. She will forever be my favorite skater for so many reasons and this piece will forever be one of my favorites.

На мой взгляд это лучший номер в истории фигурного катания по эмоциям, которые он вызывает, по прокату , по пластике, музыке и этот взгляд Юлии в конце программы . Все срослось в этом номере. Даже если фигуристки будут прыгать 5-ные или 6-ные прыжки, ничто не сможет сравниться с этой программой, потому что , хотя прыжки и имеют значение , но вовсе не главное. Судя по комментариям , очень многие, как и я периодически возвращаются и смотрят эту программу по прошествии 8 лет. Юлия, спасибо за этот прекрасный танец , за эмоции, которые подарила нам . Желаю счастья и удачи , чтобы все в жизни получалось как хочется .

It’s 2022, I’m still watching this masterpiece , at least couple of times a year ❤️🇷🇺

This was one of the most beautifully mesmerizing things I've ever seen

Такое впечатление, что именно Юля подняла планку в одиночном катании на такую высоту. Невероятное катание👍🎆

This girl is so amazing that she makes everyone rethink their entire life up till now just by watching her. She is doing more with her life and aiming harder for her goals than most people in the world. Seriously like stop starting wars and just watch this amazing teenager skate. Life would be much more fulfilling

Апрель, 2022. Вот и опять год прошёл. А мы смотрим и пересматриваем... И снова Юлечка лучшая для нас навсегда.❤️💛💙

Сколько лет уже прошло,но смотреть без восхищения невозможно! Маленькая, хрупкая, великолепная!

who's here not because they watched yuri on ice but because they've admired and loved ice skating their whole life
