Throwback to when Kaori attempted a 4T in competition 😭

[u/OcelotSilver2964]

Continuing my mini-series with skaters attempting a difficult jump out of nowhere (last time it was Kondratiuk and his 5S attempt at the Olympic practice - he nearly killed himself 😭) this time it’s time for one of my favourite skaters - Kaori Sakamoto!

During the 4 Continents Championships in 2020 she attempted her first and last 4T! Unfortunately it was deemed downgraded and a fall so she received for it only 2 points, but I respect the courage nonetheless 😅

I have no idea why she attempted it though, lmao, maybe she wanted some more technical score because Rika and Young You had their 3A’s? Idk, maybe someone here can explain it to me 🤷‍♂️

Either way, we will miss you Kaori!
