The 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang gave fans some of the most unforgettable moments in all figure skating disciplines.

Which moments from the 2018 Olympics stand out most to you?

For me the best performance came from Virtue/Moir across all four disciplines of gold medalists. I do think, overall, the best discipline was men, though, with three excellent medalists, and some good performances spattered throughout the discipline (Jin's SP, Aliev's SP, Chen's comeback LP, Rippon's LP, so on).

Savchenko/Massot were the "story" of the event, I guess, with their fourth to first, but personally I enjoyed Duhamel/Radford's LP more.

Zagitova's missed 3Lz+3Lo that she added back later in the LP - probably with her best ever execution of the element in question - and won, was another highlight.

Virtue and Moir all around.
Duhamel Radford for me should have won the LP and perhaps be placed a bit higher on the podium. I believe they still have the only landed quad throw at Olympics and considering the Base value of quad throws nowadays, it may be like that for a long time.
I was very amazed at Osmond's ability to hold her own against Medvedeva and Zagitova

As a Canadian, the team gold, was awesome. It meant that my boy Patrick who did contribute with plenty of points to the team though his programs were not perfect, would forever be able to say " I am an Olympic champion"
