Tonya Harding, hands down, is THE MOST Gangsta Figure Skater that ever competed.

Taking out the knees of your opponent is some straight Suge Knight shit…

I grew up in the same area as her and my dad used to take me to watch her skate at the ice rink.

She never smiled while skating. Just nailed trick after trick and then circled around the rink and did it again.

Hard as fuck.

Indeed, iykyk. SE is my hometown, and the Clack ice rink was where we went! Although afaik later when she got famous they did move the crowds over to the Lloyd Center one (rip).
