Mine is even easier and even more obvious. Yuzuru Hanyu's Seimei. Breathtaking. Instrumental in his winning GP Final Gold and Olympic Gold. One of these precious few recognizable at a glance, one of the greatest in history. Simply iconic.
As Shae-Lynn Bourne, Seimei's choreographer described it talking to a Canadian FS podcaster PJ Kwong in 2018:
"Even visually, I would tell him at the end, there are all these clouds and darkness that is coming towards you before the dun, dun, when he starts the footwork. And he is like this light that just clears all the evil. Kind of takes away all the clouds and you have light again. We tried to make it really visual. That only he would know."
Shae-Lynn Bourne noted Yuzuru Hanyu's genius making 'Seimei'
One of the positive aspects of the internet is that every once in a while you stumble across some undiscovered gem that is enjoyable and revelatory.www.japantimes.co.jp
Easy choice for me.
Patrick Chan's Take five... the one foot section... WOW.
I'm not so much a fan of Alexei Yagudin as a person, but his footwork in his SP in 2002 was breathtaking to me. Still is.

had to share it... stamp marked it but the whole thing is awesomeWilson and McCall's Scott Joplin free dance in the 1988 Olympics season. The sequence with the sideways running crossovers on their picks !
Edit: Just noticed it says "for men or women". Does it have to be singles? I'm leaving this here if I can, because say "footwork sequence" to me and immediately that's what springs into my mind.
