While it is true that I have never seen Maé-Bérénice Méité in person, I have seen her next to other skaters like Ashley Wagner. And I've seen Ashley Wagner in person. Sorting through those comparisons, I would bet that even compared to the general population Maé-Bérénice is tall and large boned --though also very muscular. My point is that even though certain body types will be the trend for each sport, we shouldn't rule someone out just because they are not that type.
It's hard to compare Ashley to other skaters. She is such a big performer that I was shocked to see how tiny she was in person. Almost all of the skaters are tiny and from what I remember, Alissa Czisny might have been the tallest lady when I went to Nationals in 2011. All the skaters were thin as rakes and I was also surprised at how tiny and thin Rachael Flatt was. She got flack for her East Of Eden So but I'm telling you, it was spectacular in person.
