What are the Greatest Moments of Ladies Figure Skating for you?

Tiffany Chin, 1984. Certainly one of the best non-medal-winning performances:

I agree and what a lovely skater Tiffany was.

outside of michelle now, no one.
i know you cheated for the skaters you wanted up there, didn't want and help push michelle so now don't care. keep your skating family /viewing public small. that is what you want. keep it that way in the u.s.
don't beg, ask for the public input help in shows, tours, competition, buying things in the united states.
keep the sponsors only and your elite group of people. after all they can keep you going for years to come without the public help, never mind that you push those same skaters in front of public to sell your "old-fashion", fad sport.

I have no idea what this means, fairly. How did you answer the question?

As for me, seeing one of the people I skated with make the medal podium at Nationals in 1988 (Jeri Campbell - pewter medalist!! Not sure if her skate is available on youtube or not, I will go look tonight)...

I have two programs in my heart both by Carolina Kostner :
Lp at worlds 2010
Lp at worlds 2012
I was so lucky to see them both live and I will never forget the emoticon I felt...I still cry sometime thinking of them!

I'll have to watch that; I'm sure it's great. I wasn't watching ladies in '84, but I have seen her in the skating special, Gershwin on Ice, and she is just phenomenal.

Besides being extremely musical Tiffany was also the first girl I knew that was flirting with the 3A. This was in the early 80's.........
It is easy to see her jumps were big!

Katarina Witt's comeback at 1987 Worlds. Pure mental toughness.

And here I thought Andy Murray winning the Olympics and the US Open triggered a shock-induced coma! Good to have you back.

+1 I missed your posts jcoates!

+1 I missed your posts jcoates!

+2. I mean, me too. Nice to see you back. And thanks IP for cracking me up with the Andy Murray comment.

[jcoates]

Thx everyone! Posting has been on the back burner due to a very inconsistent work schedule. I have bee keep tabs though. IP, I did get to see the Murray breakthrough and I must admit I am in a bit of a satisfaction induced coma as far as interest in tennis for the rest of the year. Never thought I's live to see Fred Perry's ghost finally pu to rest. It's been about as perfect a season as I could imagine. Here's hoping that trend will carry over to skating. The start at all levels has been promising.
