OK, I am struggling with translating and therefore procrastinating and thinking about skating. IF you had to name the first long and short program that comes to mind in each of the disciplines (for Ice Dance I am saying OD or SD depending on the era) what would you say. This is not the best, worst or anything like that; just what do you instantly think of

Men
Yagudin - Winter
Browning - Casablanca

Women
Yuna Kim - Bond
Katarina Witt - Carmen (this one surprised me)

Pairs
Berezhnaya Sikharulidze - Lady Caliph
Mishkutenok and Dmitriev - Rachmaninov

Ice Dance
Torvill and Dean - Rhumba
Torvill and Dean - Bolero (wanted it to be V and M Mahler, but apparently T and D are too ingrained)

I should have just answered straight away without starting to think about it, but here are my answers:

Men:
SP: Yuzuru Parisienne Walkways
FS: Yuzuru Seimei

Women:
SP: Evgenia River flows in you (The Winter by Balmorhea is THE best, that's the main reason)
FS: Yuna Gershwin

Pairs:
SP: V/T Masquerade Waltz
FS: S/M La terre vue du ciel

Dance:
SP: P/C Shape of you
FS: Shibs Fix you

And these are all for the good reason, I'm sure I could also make an alternative list of "facepalm" programs. :biggrin:

I believe it depends on how many years you are a figure skating fan and who were your favorite. The old programs anchored in my mind especially because I don't like the "new" system in every discipline.

Ladies: SP:Oksana Baiul Swan Lake
LP: Katarina Witt Carmen

Men: Sp: Plushenko Bolero
LP: Plushenko Godfather ( but my favorite Lp is the Nijinsky, interesting)

Pair: SP: Bereznaya/ Sikharulidze Lady Calif
LP: Gordeeva/Grinkov Moonlight Sonata ( but I believe Mishkutenok/ Dmitriev should have won)

Dance: SD: Grischuk/ Platov's Libertango
FD : Bestemianova/ Bukin Carmen
