Sarah Hughes- I still go back and forth with her. I didn't really care for her when I was a kid because I was rooting for Michelle Kwan, but after watching her 2002 Olympics long program over and over I had to admit that it was a great skate, but then I was watching her jumps in slo mo on VHS and noticed the URs, wondered if that was even a thing, and ignored it until it became a biiiig deal in the new judging system and now I don't see that performance or some of her other programs the same way I did before.
Hughes' jumps at the Olympics were the best they've ever been, sufficiently rotated enough to not deserve a deduction. I'd hope non-perfect rotation on jumps wouldn't detract from being able to enjoy the performance anyway, given how clean they were otherwise. The performance was magical and skating just doesn't exist like that anymore. We don't get to see the delicate, lilting shapes she created out there. Now people are too busy cramming in rockers and counters and position changes and random steps everywhere.
