Some personal favourites:
One-handed Biellmann spin (2009-10 LP, 2006-07 SP)
Twizzles (Ballade no. 1 EX, 2006-07 SP)
Upright spin variations (2006-07 SP, 2013-14 SP)
Arabesque spiral variation (2012-13 FS)
Spiral sequence (2007-08 FS)
The spiral at the beginning of the Jupiter EX
Transitions into 3Lo-2Lo combo (2013-14 SP)
Thanks for all the list of different elements and the video links to go with them, yuki.
I really love the twizzles and Russian split jumps in Mao's most recent performance of Ballade no. 1 in Astana, even though the camera is kind of far away. She seems to have more power and speed in them and you can hear the skate blades carving the ice really sharply: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzz7HRKDUeU
The one handed Biellmann spin in Bells of Moscow is also my favorite spin, along with Mao's I spin in Por Una Cabeza and her final spin in Caprice in which she raises her arms over head and spins like a top: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41mdvXnGiSE
I love the rapid fan spiral mixed in with the dashing steps and final arcing arabesque to close out the Rach 2 performance.
and the little leap into the air in the middle of the Rach step sequence with arm and legs outstretched while flashing a wild samurai smile: http://postimg.org/image/ko1lxixpb/
