My Take
Alexander Gazsi intrigues me precisely because ice dance lives in the shadow of the flashier disciplines. With Nelli Zhiganshina he claimed six German titles and a dozen international medals, peaking at sixth in Europe and tenth in the world. That is the unglamorous middle ground where consistency, not a single golden night, defines a career. What I value even more is his pivot to choreographer and coach. Translating your own body's memory into someone else's performance is a separate gift entirely, and Chemnitz, with its deep skating roots, clearly produced a craftsman who understands the ice from both sides.
Overview
