Unica e inimitabile ❤

agreed

Why cant there before skaters like this whose soul sings while on ice. She is my all time favorite. She and oksana.bsoul

For me, and my limited knowledge figure skating, Sasha is the best skater I have ever scene. She just drifts through things so elegantly. Like a beautiful bird in flight. Sensual, easily. At one with the ice. I think she is one of those with a natural ability, that looks perfect with all things she does. There certainly have been more consistent performers by others. And I suppose more technically correct, by having beaten her. But we are talking small things. No one captures the beauty that she displays. Some Work hard at it champions, don't carry it off like her. She truly becomes a part of the music. I think her musical interpretation soars past others I have seen. Perhaps that, with exquisite positioning of her body for all things figure skating is nothing short of Heavenly. I enjoy many others, but she has my heart. Simply silky, soft, smooth, sultry, seductive, and perfect corigraphy, is the key.

Michael Walsh yes. She is soooo artistic. And that can’t always be taught .. it’s just in the way her body naturally moves. All the technicalities of skating can be taught, yes .. but this grace? and the way her body moves across the ice ? That can’t always be taught. She just has it💞

Sasha's musicality, spins, and her spiral sequences are mesmerizing!!

+Angie Montreal You cannot suggest that Sasha is without technique!! I'd rather see BEAUTY in motion than a jumping dervish! MissthingSings(?): I am certain that a number of people appreciate her gorgeous skating as much as I do and they are NOT younger than those who follow Michelle Kwan, any more than I am! (Sasha looks no more a "little girl" than I do!!)

+Angie Montreal Sasha should never have been a figure skater? Really??????? She NEVER fully rotated in the air? I suggest you go back and watch some videos. If her spirals are so mediocre, why the +3's on grade of execution? Extension is a factor. I realize she does not have an Olympic gold medal or a world championship gold medal but if that were the criteria, there would be a lot of individuals who should not be figure skaters. After all, she only has an Olympic silver medal, 3 world championship medals, 7 U.S. National medals, including a gold, and 9 Grand Prix medals, including a gold and a silver. She must have done something right and I do know figure skating!

+Angie Montreal *grins* You've been listening to someone talk, and you're parroting them....right?

I think the only Russian girl who came close to Sasha’s artistry was Yulia / Julia Liptniskaya and it’s a shame she had to retire. Not only did Yulia posses the crazy flexibility / extension, but like Sasha had a refined touch to it. She wasn’t just flailing her arms, she was graceful. ❤️

thegreendestiny LMAO Evgenia just dropped Eteri to sign and train with a real coach and good human being, Brian Orser! 🙌🏽

is the end of her career! she couldn't beat Zagitova, she will not be able to do it with Trusova, Sherbakova or Kostornia either...

Artpop Hybrid I don’t think so. I think Alina is a special talent + has the artistic elements down, but I think Evgenia’s best is yet to come. I never thought she was the best at her “best”, truthfully thought she was over scored, but she’s talented no doubt. That and, she’s got a lovely attitude & I know she’ll do very good with Brian. Curious if Eteri will be warmer with Alina now that Evgenia is gone from her.

Claudia Peregrina Maybe, there's no doubt Evgenia is talented and is very competitive but there is no way she can win if Trusova at the age of 15 16 is able to do 2 quads. There's no way.. i think she should retire, at the next Olympics she will be 21...

sherryanng19 Agree with you👌. She absolutely looks much more fit and muscular here.....much stronger....not so skinny and waif-like. It was definitely to her advantage.

sherryanng19 she was cachexic looking in 2010 when she attempted the US Nationals, that’s why she botched her jumps. She would have been a phenomenal ice dancer though.

I agree with you .Tarasova was the best trainer for her !

thegreendestiny i think Gracie Gold had the potential to bring the popularity back to the US. She had the name, look, and talent. So sad what happened to her.

So sad, isn’t it? Figure skating is my FAVORITE sport to watch....in the Olympics and in the world. I have to be content now watching old videos here on KZfaq.

I would say that Yuna Kim and Mao Asada was another popular period for the sport as well.

jenny koppy Yulia is wonderful I agree. Sadly, she's had to deal with injuries, a growth spurt, and an eating disorder. She has the potential to be one of the greats is she can overcome these problems and regain her passion.

Not true. Yulia was great, but Sasha’s interpretation and line were still better. Yulia tended to rush her movements a little and she could be stone faced sometimes. Her Schindler’s List program was a masterpiece, though.

No one will ever make Sasha Cohen look like "a big nothing."
