Sasha Cohen 2004 Worlds SP HQ

[@hl4292]

I watch Sasha whenever I need to get my fierce back on. She is such a beast.

[@intldawn]

But for the wrong edge on the lutz, that was clinical. Not a fault to be found. Whoever gave that 5.6, 5.7 is insane. Her best performance of her career. The power, the speed of everything. Just brilliant. That spiral sequence and the way it was choreographed to the music was insane. The combination spin at the end and how that beautifully accentuated the peak of the music. Chef’s kiss.

[@snowballwannabe3161]

By far the most exciting and best short program in ladies' figure skating history. Each move besides being balletic and perfectly executed was precise and accurate to every beat of the music. Sasha proved that when she was good, was great; but when she was on fire, she was the greatest ever. So memorable after all these years.

[@MrBitchen]

***** I finally blocked that missthings freak. Way too obsessive. Have you had occasion to see the tribute video I made for Sasha years ago? It's here: www.xtremed63.com/Video/select/skate/sasha-yellow.wmv

[@emilyhall8492]

Sasha ATE that program and left no crumbs. Sheesh!

[@mindulnesscat3766]

My favorite SP ever! Perfection! Every single move respects the music and such sharpness! No one as this artistry and character! Argh flawless!

[@jjk4891]

The passion she carries and the extraordinary showman ship is certainly one of the best of time! Sad she didn't have the consistency at long programs...

[@bcbrooksaccnt]

Still to this day no one can come close to her artistry! She was so incredible!

[@karennoble4957]

I fully agree, Bryce Johnson, Very unique, born iceskater, both in artistry, and pioneering new stunning techniques which she introduced in 2000 usa nationals SP at 14-15, great clothes, music, class, a shining, unforgettable star.

[@singsongeric]

1:48 expressive down to her finger tips. 6.0 in the SP at Worlds was very rare and she got 4 of them, wow.

[@annefan1238]

she ate this up so bad holyyyy

[@sarizonana]

she is my favorite skater since the first time i saw her

[@karennoble4957]

Mine too, Sara

[@faeryquene]

One of the greatest short programs ever. :)

[@jessieh4691]

THE NUANCES IN THIS PROGRAM...will never get over this

[@12markito]

To this day still the most artistic skater

[@auntiechercher4266]

I so wish Sasha could have kept the same steadiness and artistry in her long programs. If she had she would have been unbeatable!

[@chooselove4all]

Fabulous as always from Sasha Cohen... but what was the cameraman thinking in a close up on the charlotte spiral (and one of the spins) so you could barely see it? Sasha's extension/flexibility on this move is arguably the best in the world but you can't see it when the camera is focused only on her ankle. The quality of the cameraman needs to be up to the quality of the skater!!!

[@judyi8671]

aaarrggg!!! The camera work @ 1:45 when she goes into her spiral!! You don't get the full effect.

[@amyvp97]

I love her spirals, they're always amazing!

[@snowballwannabe]

Arguably, the best short program ever in figure skating. Perfection.

[@iperpa]

That was amazing this and her romeo and juliet performances are my very very favorites!!!!!!

[@mca1218]

Glorious...and the finish and that final "take that!!" pose was phenomenal...

[@stpark22]

I totally agree. Hands down the best I've seen and I'm a figure skating fanatic

[@tifalockart7298]

Never fails to give me goosebump ! Amazing

[@arlenfillmore9492]

She is the queen of short programs. No one can do it Like her. Innovating choreography every time. Stunning movements. Her Presentations should be 6. Beautiful sasha. She has everything and no one is like her in the world.

[@GioMariatex97]

This was one rarely perfomance where she skated at her best and it was lovely: she just put FIRE into that choreography!

[@Buggerbeef]

The greatest skater of all time. Talent like nobody else ever had/has.

[@MrBitchen]

***** Someone's jealous... Time to put on your Big Girl Panties and admit that Sasha was the best Ladie's Figure Skater on any given night. She had more elements, more grace and more strength than anyone else, bar none. Even the analysts agree to that. I think the "unhealthy obsession" with Sasha resides in you. We understand.

[@MrBitchen]

***** There you go again... resorting to your very thinly-veiled jealousy and frustration. Okay, so Sasha is not only talented but beautiful, too. So what? That doesn't mean you should hate her the way you do. You even try and make the shallow argument that she was the... what did you call her? Oh yeah - the "...greatest choker in skating history". Your irrational hate for this person is transparent and obvious; you're fooling no one but yourself, perhaps. Maybe if you type more of your replies in all-caps, perhaps you'll convice more people out here to think the way you do. Delusional and in denial. I don't see anyone out here saying that Sasha won more events. All we're doing is saying that she was and still is (since no one has yet matched her artistry) the best figure skater ever. You're trying to convince us that we're wrong to be of that opinion. Well, it's the opinion of the professional analysts that Sasha was the best on any given night. Must be difficult for you to wrap your little head around, I'm sure. Oh yeah - I never saw her fall on a spiral. I think you made that one up. Then again, her possessing the best and most difficult spirals in the world, a fall might have been possible. And you saying of her elements that she "... choked so often she could never execute them without flaw." Really? Never? Seriously? Pretty much sums up what you know about her skating. You're deluded and wildly misinformed. You talk as if Sasha couldn't complete a single element. That's the hate and frustration showing itself. It's there for the world to see. We know what you're about. It's ugly. No one here has "distorted her record". You made that up, too. And one other thing - you like to pretend you're so condescending by addressing everyone as "dear"... again - you're not fooling anyone. You're not friendly or sympathetic. You're a mean-spirited, hating troll. There's no other reason for you to be out here, making hateful remarks to people who simply want to express their admiration for someone who performs her art better than anyone else on the planet. You can't seem to find any peace with that. I have nothing but pity for you. I know that's probably not what you want, but there it is. I dislike you for your ugliness and I pity you for your self-torment. I'll let you have the last word, since I'm pretty sure it's crucially important to you. So post away - show us all that hate and discontent you have for someone who doesn't even know you exist, yet someone you can't stop thinking about...

[@MrBitchen]

Hands-down, Sasha is the greatest figure skater ever. Ever. Let there be no mistaking.

[@MrBitchen]

Titles be damned... Sasha had more talent than any of them. Potential for titles, maybe, but talent? She had the best and most talent among all of them, including current competitors.

[@MrBitchen]

You're a total joke. You have no idea what Sasha thinks. No idea whatsoever. You're obsessed not only with Sasha but her fans as well. You can't wrap you're little head around the idea that I know that Sasha is the greatest figure skater on the planet. Micheal Jordan was and still is the greatest professional basketball player ever... yet Bill Russell won more rings. So Russell is the greatest? Nope. Go hug your kwan pillow and try to cope with the remainder of your lonely, obviously failed life. Sasha Cohen is and will most likely aways be the greatest figure skater to ever live.

[@fbueller]

Great performance!

[@EP7745]

This performance is what got me into Figure skating... PERFECTION

[@Annie.ballet]

I think this was one of her best short program I've ever watch! I love her routine and her costume!

[@sailordad1]

one of her best routines ~ brilliant :)

[@jasonrocb]

she is just amazing. she really has wow factor.

[@amberbecker282]

Sasha is one of the best I've ever seen. :')

[@mrparke007]

I always find different things to love about this performance. My favorite is the section at 1:27 b/c it's pure art. And her rhythm is impeccable.

[@pierrewitz]

Just great!

[@angelspscs]

Deus deve ter orgulho da raça humana de vez em quando e por certo essa foi uma das vezes! Maravilhosa a performance! Obrigada Cohen por nos maravilhar! Uhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! ;D

[@fadstar14]

Best footwork i've seen out of all her other programs

[@iceskatinggirl11]

This is her best short program in my opinion. This is the one I like to watch the most. She is one of my inspirations for skating. Hope to be as good as her one day! :)

[@anfaneygladwin6759]

My favorite short program ever!

[@karennoble4957]

I also love!! the 2000 usa nationals, at 14-15 where she stunned the world pioneering new techniques!! She was the best of the best in every way, a born iceskater, a shining star.

[@ferency98]

Sasha always looks elated after winning the short program, but her bubble always bursts in the LP when she falters.

[@EP7745]

THis is the most amazig program ever performed... I miss figure skating in these days with such wonderful skaters-im still getting over no spiral sequences now :(

[@MrBitchen]

Greatest female skater of all-time. I am so glad I was witness to her career and all of her performances. On any given day or night, Sasha was the most accomplished, graceful and artistic skater in the world. No exceptions.

[@MrBitchen]

Sasha is the best figure skater of all-time. No exceptions. I love it! Sasha owns figure skating! Woot!

[@zeuszeus00]

MrBitchen Yes, I agree ... Sasha was unique ... I don't think anyone will ever come near her ... she was that good!

[@MrBitchen]

***** Greatest female skater of all-time. I am so glad I was witness to her career and all of her performances. On any given day or night, Sasha was the most accomplished, graceful and artistic skater in the world. No exceptions.

Justjacks Holden The greatest. No exceptions.

[@Buggerbeef]

So athletic and artistic...a very rare combination these days. No one like her since.

[@figuresk8er123]

She was soooo amazing! I love her skating. :P

[@figureskatingcompilationvi4881]

shes so intense omg i love her

[@nubu222]

this presentation gives me chills and all... amaaazinngg

[@jarenmorris4621]

Greatest skater of all time? No. A star? Yes. Did she change skating? Yes. They all have their place in the sun! She and Michelle, in my mind, are the best of skating. They are what every lady skater today attempts to emulate. Forget Tara and Sarah...Michelle and Sasha are two that were always hotly contended. Not flashes in the pan. Great skaters in different ways; to be highly appreciated on the same accord! However, I am and always be Team Michelle! Love you, Sasha!

[@Janiula]

fantastic program!!!!:):) she is great !!!

[@ashleyd922]

I absolutely love her interpretation and FIRE , in this program !

[@pecsabana]

wonderful art and technique, we love you sasha

[@rosey410]

Gives me chills every time.

[@missbeatlegirl42]

sos la mejor sasha...vos me inspiras a seguir patinando!

[@anileht1451]

0:42 best part of the whole program

[@MrBitchen]

Thank you, Leotjoe for posting this performance. Sasha changed figure skating more than anyone else in history. Ladies are still trying to do what Sasha did, but it's just not happening. You would need the top skills from 5 different championship skaters to even approach the artistry of Sasha Cohen. It really is remarkable. Since Sasha left, it's just been a parade of ladies skaters hurrying from jump to jump, spin to spin, and none of them look as good as Sasha does. Right down to the last ladies figure skater - Sasha is the greatest of all time. She is the single most talented figure skater in history. She just is.

[@MrBitchen]

***** Sasha is the best figure skater of all-time. No exceptions. I love it! Sasha owns figure skating! Woot!

[@kevinstokes2791]

MrBitchen

[@karennoble4957]

I fully agree with these comments!

[@calphurnia2007]

This program is incredible. She is the best female skater ever. Nothing she does is out of form. It's just perfect.

[@88droid]

beautiful performance!

[@MrBitchen]

Sasha Cohen is the greatest figure skater in history. Hands-down, no exceptions.

[@Janiula]

[@renatatoth89]

I love this program and these commentators, they're so correct and the best!

[@skuzinsk]

This is really the best short program by a woman ever. Ever.

[@trovatoreua]

Amaizing!!! I love Sasha!

[@figureskatingDIY]

Just Amazing

[@skaterrater94]

Talk about fire on ice! Sasha plays the role perfectly.

[@TheRockinfish]

Her spirals r amazing! She makes it look so easy @ 2:14!

[@valmacclinchy]

No one can come close to her spiral sequences!!

[@mariana333444]

sasha cohen is perfect! I love you sasha cohen! ♥

[@atijela23]

totally agree with u she is the best at it!! no one better

[@Janiula]

amazing!woow

[@2DoubleEdge]

I absolutely love this performance. Sasha set the standard with this one.

[@TheGoldWatch]

Do they put all the spins in the beginning because that's when they have the most energy? The camera work was bad it was hard to see what she was doing in some parts.

[@eafadda5001]

She is the best ever!

[@rickram1961]

Absolute Perfection!

[@anniecy]

Sasha's best performance EVER!

[@ThomaS-lg4rj]

I do wish camera operators would refrain from zooming in on spiral sequences. They seem totally unaware of body line.

[@enigma1987domenico]

Perfect!!!

[@xXSailorMarsXx]

a phenomenal SP! i loved it

[@XJenniferLeighX]

she was at her best in 2004 and this is my favorite short program of hers :-)

[@88droid]

I love this performance of her so much but my fav Is her 2010 short

[@Janiula]

najlepsza łyżwiarka naświecie nie wiem dlaczego ale uwielbiam po prostu ten program

[@xxtuxxx]

thankyou skating gods for making sasha cohen decide to come back to skating

[@tube26love]

timeless performances ....

[@123amandal]

LOOOOVE THIS PROGRAM!!!!!!!!!!!! and of course the dress :)

[@DelusionalDarcy]

@waveglider1 It's truly said that she was so inconsistent. Her Romeo and Juliet program was perfection, especially when she skated it clean.

[@MrTravelingman45]

love the way she kept center on her spining

[@icarrus4u]

THE BEST.

[@NewDawnFades608]

chills down my spine...

[@EVILKITTYCATMUSICTPF]

Thank you so much!

[@fromthesoo]

[@Knight1255]

Gotta love Sasha!! In fact, I'm such a fan, I've even printed out pictures of her- at work- using my company's color printer!! Haha!!!!!!! Sasha is the best!!

[@ImmaculateRecovery]

really spectacular

[@RomiBooni]

love her

[@magnoliabranca5149]

Legend!!!

[@icarrus4u]

Ballerina on Ice!

[@MiniDress360]

I don't know anything about ice-skating except that she is really really lovely to watch!

[@lowdaisy1]

THIS IS PERFECT!

[@jessicalovescakes9544]

Her face and eyes... She is naturally beautiful

[@vistaprime]

best short program ever.

[@lilibethshin8962]

wow amazing..

[@EdmundoMD]

Damn, I've never seen her skate this way before. She looked totally confident and spot on!!!!

[@MrTravelingman45]

her foot landing amazing omg ......

[@nathanielharper8701]

It's amazing if skating had just a short program how different some of the ladies results would be. If we take some of the top names in sport from the golden years (1992-2006) and gave them the titles based on the short program...just imagine this.

[@indysk8r32]

She reminds me of a plane as well when she's got her arms out in her spirals. They're exquisite!

[@curiousgurl1982]

Very nice!
