Right now, Julia Lipnitskaya.
In their prime, maybe Yagudin, Plushenko or Irina Rodnina?
Mao when she was 15 was very reliable as well.
Michelle Kwan was reliable, except she did choke at Olympics so as long as I could get the sense that she actually didn't really care about whether I died or not, I would choose Michelle in her prime years.
Oh, is that why she did clean LPs in Vancouver Olympics and London Worlds last year? My my, how offensive for the incompetent Yuna to have two of the world's best LP scores ever? How dare she???
Good luck with your hate on Yuna and please root for Yulia all you can, so that she won't embarrass you.
...as long as I could get the sense that she actually didn't really care about whether I died or not…
interesting choice. Before i saw the answers, i thought of him as probably being the one out of the present skaters. As well, i know that if he screwed up, he would at least feel badly about it and not give me the finger.
Kostner, or maybe Sotnikova. It would be like a leap of faith.
yuna kim, ill include yulia lipnitskaya if she can handle the growth spurt which she probably hasn't gone through yet..
