Signature moves skaters are known for

Sam Cesario-spread eagle

 

[Dee4707]

I have no idea what this move is called since I'm pretty new to the FS world, but when Gordeeva and Grinkov do this:

Thanks for posting I had not seen that skate before. Talk about "in unison."

Matt Savoie - who was doing intricate transitions into jumps before they became popular!

Yes, his transitions into jumps were wonderful. I always thought he was overlooked. I loved watching him skate.

[MedoLove]

Sasha Cohen : I-Spin, Charllote spiral, expression
Mao Asada : Arabesque spiral , Footwork.
Yulia Lipnitskaya : hyper-Biellmann I think we should stop calling that movement of Yulia "Biellmann", can we call this Lipi or some? ///(I didn't want to mention her I-spin, because I think Sasha patented it before hahaha, but there's no one else to do that hyper-biellmann, except Alisa Lozko, I think)

Adelina Sotnikova : This spin , 2A spirals entries

Yagudin: Footwork
Plushenko : Footwork + facial expressions

Yuzuru Hanyu : Donut-spin with arms down , Hydroblade

Elena Radionova : Biellmann position with the back very flexed backwards and its long extended leg, is beautiful.
Evgenia Medvedeva: Spiral cross grab that she use like conection, expression

Sasha Proklova could do it

[largeman]

Nothing mean spirited.. just taking a different direction and seeing what comes to mind: :dev2:

Shoma Uno: super dangerous looking landings
Yuna Kim: "Point your toe, dear" - Dick Button
Tonya Harding: stop. point to shoelace.
Ashley Wagner: UR, 2-foot (see also: Mao)
Satoko Miyahara: :think:

 

[Spirals for Miles]

Sasha Proklova could do it



https://youtu.be/kJjWHIS3hKU?t=3m19s

Yeah, and so can Kamila Valieva and Daria Usacheva. Anna Shcherbakova comes close too.

Yeah, and so can Kamila Valieva and Daria Usacheva. Anna Shcherbakova comes close too.

It’s still Yulia’s Move though. Id say she is the one who popularized it. Her spins got a lot of worldwide media attention after all :yes:

I mean..Yulia can do the Pretzel spin but that is Courtney Hicks signature move ......Ironically in Sasha Cohen’s dress and music

I nominate Courtney Hicks for her Pretzel Spin :yay:

 

[Ic3Rabbit]

Surya: Backflip-3S
The hardest transition into jump.

Ryan Bradley does a backflip-half loop-3S

Yulia hyper-extended her I-spin and brought her leg more to the parallel to her body or sometimes even behind her body and her foot pointing behind her head, whereas Sasha angled her leg out and used the toe of her blade to bring her boot facing towards her face and her leg was facing more of a front direction

^ My two favorites

 

[yume]

Ryan Bradley does a backflip-half loop-3S

Harder or less hard?

 

[lesnar001]

Harder or less hard?

My guess would be a little less difficult because of the half-loop in between, but hopefully someone with the technical savvy will let us know for sure.

In any case, it is very impressive indeed - I wish I had seen him do it!

 

[Cdimop]

I remember Tiffany Chin had a spin which involved moving her hands while spinning. It was really cool to watch. I don't recall anyone else doing it or maybe they do but it's called something else??

 

[labgoat]

Paul Wylie's spins and reverse spread eagles.

These were favorites. He also had a skid spiral he learned from Robin Cousins. Robin had a fantastic wooden leg sitspin that was super low, a huge delayed axel and camel spins that were so perfect.

My all time favorite pair move.
Some US pair needs to do this as a homage...

 

[labgoat]

I also liked Jeremy Abbott's entry into his triple axel from his Beatles SP https://youtu.be/jljuph8ISAQ

And from Dennis Ten the footwork from 2014 SP with the half-flip ending in a lunge and the turns with the free foot held behind. https://youtu.be/8Ucv7j-Zzz4


I would wait for these moves every time.
Thanks fellas!
