I don't think there was anybody technically better than John. Jumps are more about timing than anything. John had supreme control over every move, and in both directions! Technically, he's the champ.
There may have been technically better skaters than John but there has never been anyone to match his grace and artistry. With John, skating became an art form. What a pity that everyone nowadays concentrates on strength and power. The audiences are the losers. Thank yuou so much for posting this clip.
