In somewhat of an order...
Michelle Kwan, for solid jumping, joyful ease, great edges, competitive fire and longevity.
Yuka Sato, professional years. She has it all
Sasha Cohen _ despite the falls, her skating is exquisite
Dorothy-beauty, grace, best back, best stroking, an athlete in her time
Kat Witt-she just got better and gave us so many beautiful pro skates. As a competitor, only Kwan stands with her for meeting the big moments with killer instinct
Janet Lynn-lovely, she left us too soon
Irina Slutskaya OM?G- how did I leave her off? hated her gawky years despite the jumps but she was awesome-fun to watch, all those achievements. I loved watching her fly through Cotton Eysd Joe in her gala skate at SLC. She deserved all her titles, really, what a worker/competitor. There will never be a Russian to even come close to her resume.
Kristi Yamaguchi-as a pro she kept her jumps and truly became one of the most graceful skaters, so perfectly blessed to reach her porential, the luckiest skater
Mirai Nagasu-the most adorable skater, she lights up and does everything well.
Chen Lu-exquisite
And not yet but when she is more complete with better spins, spirals, spark YUNA will bump someone, probably Biellman off the list.
Shizuka is lovely but did not stay with us long enough to make this list, Nor did talented Tara but I love both.
