Any step sequence of Jeff Buttle's is butta in my books. So happy http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...axPgexA#t=135s

Abt - Artsakh... such a dancer http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...pCnbnxp4#t=66s
the second sequence is even better http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...Cnbnxp4#t=133s (please disregard the jackass Hamilton talking about Eldredge's quad)

I love that program. But there's no need to suffer Hamilton's commentary - just watch the Euros version! The step sequences are still lovely.

Abt was/is a wonderful skater who didn't get his due, but did you have to drag the comments about Todd into this discussion? That said, I like Scott Hamilton as a skater/person, not so much as a commentator.

Re; footwork - just about anything Kurt does!

Petr Barna's name in this thread made me think about this other step sequ. from 1992 Olympics.
A beautiful one : David Liu 1992 Olympics SP

Never heard of David Liu. That was most enjoyable!! Dude was all COP before COP--interesting and creative spin positions included.

Speaking of Alexander Abt and one-foot step sequences, this isn't a competitive program, but it is pretty incredible

Possibly my favorite Abt routine. I wish he had done a Blues program because his edges are perfect for it.

I love a good serpentine step sequence with a fun theme or effortless speed

Ah the gorgeous skating skills of Japanese men ...

One thing that emerges for me is how large the gap was among skaters in terms of step sequence choreography in the 6.0 era. The step sequences from skater to skater were very different in their technical content and difficulty/intricacy/variety (to borrow a phrase from components). I wonder if skaters and coaches back then felt they had little incentive to put a difficult step sequence in a program and practice really hard for it.

Abt's SP skated to the Russian sailors dance has wonderful footwork. I don't remember if he skated it in 2003 or another year.

Abt's SP skated to the Russian sailors dance has wonderful footwork. I don't remember if he skated it in 2003 or another year.

He had it for two seasons, 2002-3 (the year he won Russian Nats) and 2003-4.

Remember when he did Gasolina at the Red Square gala a few years back? That was fun.

I really enjoyed Abt back in the day, and thought he was underappreciated, but his posture annoys the heck out of me.

Sandhu's tango SP. Circular step, his gorgeous camel, followed by a most fierce straightline

I always enjoyed Bourne and Kraatz's straight line step sequence from their Waltz/Polka OD in 2003.
