Emily Hughes = The same as Kimmie
Ashley Wagner = She is diffenately very graceful, and getting up there with Kimmie and Emily.
Danielle Kahle = I love her Spirals.

Not all are still skating or competing but here are some skaters that have made my favourite list at one time or another.
Michelle Kwan: Her sense of musical timing and those spirals that started todays change edge spsq4s.
Elvis Stojko: I liked him and would still like him if he were still skating because of his masculine style and for always being his own person no matter what was on his plate.
Nancy Kerrigan: For coming back after an unjustice was done onto her (knee wack) and skating with joy.
Jennifer Robinson: For skating in the face of adversity from the media and keeping her chin up no matter what others said about ladies Canadian skating through the 1990's.
Josee Chouinard: For her bubbly personality on the ice that just exuded a sence of fun.
Cynthia Phaneuf: For working her way back to form after injury and tons of virtical growth and keeping with her sence of style.
Joannie Rochette: For over coming nerves and showing us how to "Just Have Fun!" on the ice; 2002 Skate Canada Championships long program and 2005 Skate Canada Championships short and long.
Jeffery Buttle: For taking the time to incorporate ice dance steps and body moves in between the elements, doing those terrific twisty spins and for learning to for go everything except "Just Having Fun!" playing with his music as the music goes using every inch of his body to communicate how he feels about the music. Oh yeah, can I say he's the 2008 World Mens Champion?
Tessa Virtue & Scott Moir: For not competing on the ice but doing an ice dance show during their OD and especially their Freedance at the 2008 World Championships.
Shae Lynne Bourne & Victor Kratz: For sticking to their dreams even though until 2003, the judges didn't bother to really notice their talent.
Kurt Browning: For having the gift of the fast artistic feet and sharing it with other skaters.
Brian Orser: For skating with heart and sharing his heart through skating clinics and everyday coaching.
