Alex Yagudin is much better!  Kurt is very good on ice but not the best at all!

Very consistent skater, and was very elegant too but had several technique flaws. Her jumps were often very under rotated, particularly her triple-triple combinations, and she flutzed like no other. But with that said she gave the skate of her life at the right time, and thus is deserving of her Olympic gold medal.

I had the great privilege of seeing Yu-Na Kim live at the 2009 World Figure Skating Championships, where she trounced the field by 16 points and set world records in the short program and for her overall total. Her speed, her jumps, her flow, her panache, her expression, are all simply magnificent. If only she could improve her flexibility and positions in the spiral sequence, she would be close to perfection.

I remember Ekaterina's heartfelt performances on ice with her late husband, Sergei Grinkov.  She also shows versatility in that she can skate solo, as well, which she had to learn after Sergei passed away so tragically.  Her first solo performance was dedicated to him, in which she did a routine as though Sergei was with her.  It was a very moving piece.  Afterward, she went on to learn true solo skating, and it didn't seem to take long for her to fall into place.  Daria, her daughter, now seems to be following in the footsteps of her parents.

I saw Tara skate live at the nationals in 96 or 97 and she was beyond belief.  For some reason when you see her on television, some of the magic that you see live is lost.

I've got to agree with LJF777.  You never knew what he was going to do.  One competition some years back, he cost himself some points stepping out on the ice and skating to a rap tune.  Usually, the skaters during standard competitions skate to more traditional musical styles (such as classical), and this was a very daring move on Viktor's part.

Seriously, though.  Viktor Petrenko is very artistic in his performances.  He (along with many others) has truly shown the creative side of the sport of ice skating.

I'm not really much of an ice skating fan, but Brian Boitano was fantastic on south park ;)
