Updated 100 Memorable Skating Programs

Back in 2018, I created the original version of this list. (You can find the master post here.) Since 2024 marks my 30th year as an official fan of figure skating and there have been some more great programs created since the last time, I thought it was about time to update the list in honor of World Ice Skating Day. Same rules apply as last time:

Only senior competitive programs starting from the 1993-1994 season are eligible, since that's the first season I really started watching figure skating.

Each skater may only be listed once, unless a partner/discipline switch is involved.

Choice of music may also not be repeated. (Yes, there are two James Bond programs on the list, but Yuna and Wakaba use different music for the most part, so I'm letting it slide.)

I debated long and hard about whether or not I should still include programs from skaters who have proven themselves to be not so great people. I'm someone who has little difficulty separating the art from the artist, so in the end, I decided to keep them listed (although most of them got knocked down a few pegs). This list is more about the choreography than the skater anyway, although there are certainly some problematic choreographers out there, too. (Looking at you especially, Morozov!) So, just because a skater is listed doesn't mean that I'm a fan of them or that I condone their actions! I just think certain programs are still great regardless of the skaters' terrible behavior off the ice.

Choreographers are noted if known. If you know who choreographed the programs without a choreographer named, please let me know!

I've also created a handy playlist on YouTube if you don't want to click on all these links.

a Washington Post article from today about Madi and Gabi:

One night in late February, Madison Hubbell and Gabriella Papadakis, two Olympic gold medal ice dancers, glided into a skating exhibition in Zurich’s 85-year-old Hallenstadion to shatter one of figure skating’s great taboos by performing not with their longtime male partners but each other.

They held hands, locked eyes and twirled under a spotlight at the Swiss show Art on Ice. Their program, skated to Marius Bear’s “Not Loud Enough,” was short and simple, filled with parallel spins, gentle hugs and linked fingers. At one point, Papadakis leaped into Hubbell’s arms, flinging her hand dramatically behind her head for several moments before dropping back to the ice.

Online commenters used words such as “gorgeous,” “incredible,” and “fantastique” to describe the performance. Hubbell said someone told them they looked as graceful together as Papadakis and her male partner, Guillaume Cizeron, did in winning gold at the 2022 Beijing Olympics.

“We made people see other realities,” Papadakis says.

They did this because they want to change figure skating — ice dance, in particular. In doing so, they are going up against more than 100 years of tradition because ice dance is different from any Olympic sport. At heart, it’s a performance as theatrical as it is athletic, each routine a fairy tale heavy on romance and chivalry. A male skater almost always leads, and his female partner follows, all while gazing at each other with loving eyes.

Many women in skating, including Hubbell and Papadakis, find this dynamic uncomfortable and outdated.

“The new generation just doesn’t relate to it anymore,” Papadakis says.

She and Hubbell see one gender ice dance as a chance to create more opportunities for female skaters because the pool of males is small, leaving many women without partners. But skating is a judged sport, and judges tend to be old-fashioned. They like the love stories and can favor couples who seem more passionate than others.

Nearly three years ago, Skate Canada, the Canadian figure skating federation, revised its rules to change the definition of a team from “one man and one woman” to “two skaters.” But no other country’s federation has followed, and the International Skating Union, which oversees the sport globally and at the Olympics, does not allow single-gender teams. Even Hubbell and Papadakis, who became good friends while training at the same Montreal rink and used to skate together for fun, aren’t likely to perform as a team outside of occasional exhibitions.

“I think when [people] see two women skating together, they are like, ‘Oh God, this is gay,’” Papadakis said.

Or as Kaitlyn Weaver, an American-born ice dancer who went to two Olympics with Canadian skating partner Andrew Poje and led Skate Canada’s gender definition change, said, “The conservative people don’t want to see two men skating together … it’s their homophobia.”

For all the sport’s emphasis on love and courtship, few ice dance teams are real life couples. The American husband-and-wife team of Madison Chock and Evan Bates, winners of the past three world championships, is a rare exception. Most teams are put together for their ability to fit together on the ice. For instance, Hubbell, an American, is married to Spanish ice dancer Adrian Diaz, while Zachary Donohue, Hubbell’s longtime partner with whom she won team gold and ice dance bronze at the 2022 Beijing Olympics, is married to Australian skater Chantelle Kerry.

Sexuality is a complicated topic in figure skating. Over the years, several male stars have come out as gay, and top Americans such as Jason Brown, who is gay, and Amber Glenn, who identifies as pansexual, are immensely popular with fans. But many inside skating are wary that the sequined costumes and elegant routines can overshadow the fact that figure skaters are among the best-conditioned athletes in the world.

Last fall, Ryan Dunk, a skater from Baltimore and former U.S. junior national champion, came out as queer in an Instagram post that included a long list of what he called “micro aggressions” from others in the skating community. One coach, he wrote, suggested he “skate like a man.” Others told him they didn’t want to see his “sexuality on the ice.” A fellow skater said Dunk shouldn’t “be allowed in the same-sex locker room.”

Papadakis identifies as bisexual and queer, something she never hid during her career, and Cizeron announced years ago that he is gay. As they won Olympic gold and silver medals as well as five world championships together for France, Papadakis struggled to comprehend the charade. She knew of ice dance couples posing as real couples away from the sport, desperate to make people believe their bond was genuine.

“Although it is understood that skating is an artsy place, the idea of openness in your identity is not there at all,” said Weaver, who identifies as queer. “Everyone’s like. ‘It’s figure skating, everyone is gay right?’ But the queer men are scrutinized. They go through a ton of s--- because at the end of the day, we’re a judged sport. At the Olympics, those nine judges come from places in the world where it is illegal to be gay or even look gay.”

Like Papadakis, Weaver waited until after she retired in 2021 to publicly reveal her sexuality. She had too much to lose. The next year, she was named to a Skate Canada task force to study diversity in the country’s skating community.

“This is a white, cisgender, hetero sport,” she said.

The task force didn’t take long to identify the gender complexities in ice dance as a place to start. To Weaver, getting Skate Canada to remove the gender requirements for an ice dance team was a huge first step, but overhauling ideas more than a century old has been harder.

“With women, we are so scrutinized in sports,” she said. “You are one of two things: the ingenue or the sex symbol. Those are our only two identities. You can’t go outside of those identities.”

She believes these ideas are holding back skating, leading to a decline in television ratings and fan interest.

“Part of my mission is to keep this sport from going down to grandma and grandpa’s VCR in the basement,” she said.

Another by-product of such stereotypes discourages many boys from becoming ice dancers, Weaver adds, because they want to avoid being labeled or teased. The shallow pool gives incredible power to the males who stay with the sport. They can be picky about who they select as a partner, often auditioning several at a time, a process that can leave unchosen female skaters discouraged. The one who is selected must adjust to her partner’s style of skating. Almost always, she has to move to the city where he trains, even if it’s in another country.

“Boys most often hold all the cards,” Weaver said.

She remembers mass auditions in the U.S. where a handful of boys needing partners would be able to choose from more than 100 girls lined up on the ice with numbers pinned to their backs.

“Like ‘The Bachelor,’” Papadakis said with a laugh when she heard the story.

“If you are a good-looking dude in figure skating it absolutely is like ‘The Bachelor,’” Weaver said.

Weaver’s 13-year pairing with Poje is rare. Few women in ice dance have partners for that long. Papadakis, too, is unusual in that she skated with Cizeron since she was around 10. Hubbell was with Donohue for 11 years. Most female skaters are doing what Hubbell calls “musical chairs,” frantically searching for a partner with whom she can stick.

“It creates a pervasive power imbalance,” Papadakis says. “Even [inside] the couple, the woman knows that if she breaks up, she might not find a partner. He won’t have a problem finding another partner; she might not have that opportunity. And so you can imagine, for example, an occasion where the man is abusive and the woman might not be able to leave the relationship or the partnership.”

Hubbell, who now coaches in Ontario, Canada, has seen three of the 10 female ice dancers at her rink give up the sport for at least a year because they can’t find male partners. She begs them to try pairing with each other, to see if two of them might make a team, which would allow them to compete at least at Skate Canada events. They skate together at practice the way she once did with Papadakis, why not in competitions? Still, they refuse.

Part of the reason, Hubbell said, is they know they can’t take part in international events, but she also suspects the girls are apprehensive about breaking away from what she calls the “romantic endeavor” and the “Les Miz” aspect of ice dance.

She understands their fear, but she can’t get past the fact they are missing a year of skating because they don’t want to be stigmatized. She wonders why they won’t at least try. “Keep looking for your Prince Charming,” she wants to tell them, yet at the same time, she has wondered if she too is complicit.

She asked, “If I’m asking them to give it a shot, why not try myself?”

Not long after the Beijing Olympics, Papadakis spent a week in Ontario skating with Hubbell. They didn’t have a formal plan; instead it was a chance to try something they had talked about doing. A video of them dancing spread through the skating community. Then last year, Art on Ice asked Papadakis if she would skate with another woman on the production’s eight-show tour through Switzerland this winter. She said yes but only if she could do it with Hubbell.

She again went to Ontario. By this time, Hubbell had a 1-year-old daughter and a full coaching schedule. Still the two skaters were able to design and practice a routine in three weeks. As they worked, Hubbell was amazed by how quickly she adapted to Papadakis’s style.

She had loved skating with Donohue during her career, but he was so much bigger and stronger that at times he had to slow down so she could catch up. At particularly tense moments in events when one of them felt tired or stressed, Donohue — as the man — instinctively pulled them through. Papadakis “softened” those instances, she realized. Each woman was taking care of the other; no one seized control.

It reminded her of when she was little and partnered with her brother Keiffer back when there was no pressure to feign romance. She used to lift Keiffer off his skates. Now, two decades later, she was doing the same to Papadakis. She felt an amazing peace as they practiced.

Papadakis, though, was not relaxed. After years of rebelling against the male-led culture of ice dancing, she finally was skating with another woman, one of her closest friends, someone with whom she could share the power. Yet the first time she grabbed Hubbell’s hand, she froze.

“Oooh, I’m touching a woman,” she thought.

As they skated, she began questioning some of the moves she made on the ice. Were they too strong? Was she leading too much? Did she look too masculine?

“I had all these thoughts stuck in my brain, and it was quite a vulnerable moment,” she said. “I [had] to go like, ‘What do I believe in?’ I just was not conditioned to do it. I’m conditioned to think with any masculine movement I’m weirdly afraid of hurting her, which is stupid because it’s not the case.”

The memory still troubles her.

“I still have a hard time if I really think about it,” she continued. “When I’m in the performance I go back, I retreat into the default mode. And default mode is me being led and me following somebody else rather than taking initiatives.”

Eventually, she got past the shock. When she did, she realized that she and Hubbell fit well together on the ice. They had barely practiced, yet it looked as if they had been a team for years. She thought that if they really wanted to form a team and fight hard to rewrite the rules that maybe they could become Olympic medalists together.

That would mean changing more than a century of tradition, though, in a sport where change doesn’t happen fast.

“It’s definitely a bit of a rollercoaster. It’s a tour definitely mixed with some reflection of previous tours and how I remember it,” the 33-year-old Chan says on a day off from Toronto, before the SOI cast headed off to Regina for a show on Thursday night. “I saw Scott (Moir) in London, he came to the show … just hugging him and talking with him, I got really emotional for some reason. It brought back a flood of memories of what it was like touring with Scott and what that meant to me. And the memories we made and the things I learned, the stupid things we did … just everything came rushing back. “We went through the juniors together and all the way to the top. I have moments like that where I just reflect and reminisce a lot on how things used to be. But at the same time, I miss my family, I miss my wife (former pairs skater Elizabeth Putnam), I miss (his son) Oliver a lot … I think I’m stepping away at the right time, considering where I am in my life and how hard being away from my son for four weeks has been already. I knew it was never going to be easy; these types of decisions are always tough.” [...] “You know, this cast has changed a lot. It’s been a changing of the guard. I’m the only one left from back when Scott and Tessa were doing tours, and Eric (Redford) and Meagan (Duhamel) … I’m really the only one left. I do feel that. It is a pretty stark reminder every show,” he said. “It’s not such the case now, because everyone is still competing and everyone is younger. I connect the best with Deanna (Stellato-Dudek, the ageless 40-year-old who just won a World pairs title with Maxime Deschamps), actually, because I can just relate to her — we’re in similar places in our lives, and share a similar perspective.” [...] “It taught me the hard work, the dedication, putting your mind to something and finishing it and all that. Most importantly, it taught me how to be a professional, how to carry myself and hold myself to a certain standard. Being around other champions from multiple generations —you’re talking Elvis (Stojko), Kurt, also Scott and Tessa —they were all such successful individuals, but also different,” he said. “But at the end of the day, when it comes to being professional and showing up and doing your job correctly, we held ourselves to that standard. And then being a good person. Knowing when to have fun, when to be serious. And also, how to get through the struggles, how to figure things out when things aren’t clicking at 100 per cent. [...] “I didn’t get to go to university, I didn’t have that key development time (in my life). Scott was my guy, and all these other cast members. Andrew Poje and Eric Radford … all these skaters were more than just my teammates, they were my life and my social circle. It does feel like it’s all coming to an end and it’s weird that Stars is kind of marking that last chapter.” [...] “For me, Halifax always stands out. I always have really fond memories of Halifax, because it would be the end of the season, the weather was changing, and I’d sit by the harbour in Halifax and reflect on the season. And then I’d get really excited about seeing my friends and developing a show together,” he said. “Spending hours together on the ice, but also goofing around and finding that good balance of work and fun. Halifax was just such a great city to start in. And there were the bus rides and traditions that I try to keep going and pass onto the next generation, but I’m finding it harder to (do that). I’m not Scott. I realized that pretty quick.”
