Which female figure skater do you believe is the most elegant and artistic?

[jennylovskt]

Why is there no Sasha Cohen's name on there? I voted "Other" - Sasha Cohen.

Sasha is the most elegant artistic skater in the history.

I am a Michelle Kwan fanatci but I can admit, grudgingly of course, that Sasha Cohen is the more elegant of the two. Michelle just skates with her heart and we viewers can tell that she is giving her all...

Yukina Ota, I have heard of her but had never had the opportunity to see her skate. I just watched her clip and she is stunning. Great posture, a beautiful spiral, she's one of the only up and comer's who has a nice spiral sequence. I can't wait to see her compete with the big dogs. When she is healed she will be a force to be reckoned with. Mao and Kimmie who?

I posted Mai, but Yukina Ota is really really very elegant. Both skated to Swan Lake honestly, I can't tell which one did it better, love both of them.

I loved Oksana in her day!

 

[ksharony]

Kristi Yamaguchi
Yukina Ota
Yu-na Kim
Carolina Kostner

Susanna Pöykiö

Hmmm... This is a great debate! I say Oksana and Christopher say Peggy Flemming. But the most elegant female skater of all time would have to be Marina Klimova the Ice Dancer from Russia.

Other: Simply Sasha.

 

[bear]

this europeans i saw Tamar Katz. she's only 17 but very artistic and elegant. but among skaters of the past Klimova is defently is a leader along with her husband

NO SASHA COHEN ON THE LIST???????? :disagree: :scratch: hwell: Instead there are Sarah Hughes and Tara Lipinski?

Oh well, I vote for Sasha Cohen.

And where are Lu Chen, Maria Butyrskaya, Yuka Sato, Susana Poykio, Kristi Yamaguchi...? Way more elegant and artistic than Sarah and Tara.

I think we should add a new one: Alissa Czisny. :agree:

I think we should add a new one: Alissa Czisny. :agree:

I agree also on Alissa Czisny!!! :agree:

 

[Kitt]

Have to agree about Alissa

She's an up-and-comer! Very elegant and beautiful.

But the one that really made me fall in love with skating.......Sasha Cohen! And skating is not as interesting to watch this year because she is not around.

If we are talking about NOW and not a few years ago, I would say Katy Tylor for most sophisticated. Her Theme and Variations music was a homage to the Czar. I feel she got that right but was not able to make the elements.

Who do you think is the most graceful and elegant and artistic skater? :yes:

At for right now, I think it's Kimmie Meissner. She is best and she know how to work the new judging system.

 

[skater 17]

Alissa 100% she is in a class of her own she is amazing!!:agree:

 

[russell30]

Susanna Poykio Is The Best Of All Time Both Elegant And Graceful

 

[Eddie Lee]

Alissa Czisny. If you could have been at Nationals, you would understand (though you might disagree). Sasha would be a close, close second!:agree:

 

[tomtsya]

I think that Elena Liashenko is one of the most elegant lady skater
