On the other thread we are listing the famous skaters who, for whatever reason, we just haven't made a personal connection with. What about those not-quite-so-famous skaters that do touch our hearts, for whatever reason, or for none?
To each his own
In dance, my faves are Watanabe and Kido. I don't know why -- they just always seem to be tickled to death to be out there entertaining us.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Is Matt Savoie a beautiful man? He is so smooth and relaxed. He makes me believe that he hasn't got a care in the world, and neither do I.
Different strokes for different folks
Amber Corwin What class! What a sweetheart! She will probably never achieve a competitive result better than her fourth place at U.S. Nationals, but she is a delight even so.
Move your feet
To the Nelidina beat
Move your feet

Move your feet...
In case you didn't recognize it, that was the different drummer, however measured or far away.
Ludmilla did a triple Axel right in front of me at Skate America. I think she winked at me as she was going up!
Plus, she is dedicated and modest, with a great respect for the sport, for the great champions who have gone on before, and for the skaters that she shares the ice with.
OK, so maybe she has some work to do before we say that she brings the total package. But I hope that she makes the Russian world team next year.

PS. If you don't like the people on my list, then you are a mean snarky troll.
(I just thought I would get that out of the way at the beginning )
