It's an interesting proposition. If CoP had been in place as a judging system all aloing who do you think would have benefited by virtue of mostly their skating skills over their jumping abilities. I always felt that Jill Trenery would have been marked much higher had she been given all the credit she did with carriage, posture, transitions, footwork, etc. Her inconsistent jumps and her injuries were her downfall, but she was still terrific and skated like butter.
Likewise, though Toller is a legend in his own right for all his efforts as a skater, I think if you measure him by CoP standards (of the skills being done in his era) his second score would have been through the charts.
Now what about you, who are your nominees?
