Thomson, Kay

Kay Thomson (born February 18, 1964 in Toronto ) is a Canadian skater who performed in women's singles . Three - time champion of Canada .

She trained with Luis Stong and Sandra Bezik . It had two original features:

- the only one of all single women to purely perform the most difficult triple lutz jump in those years ^[1] (he obeyed her twice at the world championships 1983 and 1984) and this despite the fact that she could not only cope with the rest, much simpler jumps ( flip ), but didn’t even plan to execute them in the program ( rittberger , salchow and sheepskin coat ), always finding herself with the only triple jump performed in an arbitrary program;

- was the best performer of spins in 1982–84 (after leaving the fans of D. Bilmann ) –– performed them at high speed, with a huge number of revolutions (up to 55–60 in combined in a short program), precise centering, tilt - back, to the other leg, unlike most skaters, with a strong deflection of the back to the back, and the rotation in the screw in a unique position, legs crossed.
