WOW! What a toughy. Sasha sometimes has soft landings but sometimes she has to fight for the landing and it gets rough. For that I voted for Michelle. WOW! We like to compare Michelle and Sasha alto. :evil:

I picked Michelle. I've always thought that Michelle lands the lightest for the most part. Sasha isn't bad but once and a while she has some really rough landings.

I must say the almighty Michelle Kwan.

Both skaters are good at different skating elements, but I think Michelle has a lighter and more elegant jump landing. When Sasha lands, she looks like she's trying too hard, and then that gets her nervous and she falls.

Michelle falls too - I mean, come on - all skaters fall, but with Michelle it's different. Even if she falls, you still feel good... like it's okay. You know she'll pull it through. You don't get feelings of doubt and that she won't fight back.

Michelle's landings seem better, IMO. Sasha sometimes looks frail and like she lands only because she was lucky.

I don't know... that's just me.

I like Michelle's better. She lands easily most of the time while Sasha falls, steps out of, two-foots, or puts a hand down. When Sasha does land her landings are beautiful. When Michelle lands she makes her jumps look so easy and light.
