Did you all see it last night? I didn't know it was on but I was flicking the remote before turning down the lights and there I was in Beijing watching Chengjian LI do a superb job of a FS. He is soooooo underscored.
Joubert started out like a house on fire and then suddenly turned to ashes. What was it that whole season for him? He looked very good for the first minute and a half.
I'm so used to looking for a clean skate by Emmanuel that I never really watched his program as a whole. I did this time and it was a remarkably well laid out routine worthy of high scores for choreography. He's in consant flow at all times. He will medal at Torino if he stands up.
Buttle - well, we know how good the whole package was.
I watched with amazement at how cool Evgeni skates. He knows very well how to pace himself better than any other skater. I did notice last night how he maybe footworking the ice like crazy to get applause BUT he pauses before each jump ever so lightly, and carefully executes it, then he resumes his fast paced MTFs. Check me out.
I fell asleep for the Ladies but managed to tape it which I haven't seen yet.
