The real question in this competition is.... how did the Russians make a second Plushenko, do they make them in some kind of factory? If so.. this is scary!!!!!!!
And if there is such a factory....try the alexei model instead
Any Russian skater is automatically "new Plushenko". I believe it is the matter of taste preference and cultural difference. Russians find Plushenko's style appealing, some people abroad do not get the appeal.

Why can it not be "new Yagudin", "new Kulik", "new Abt", etc?
Well I read the same comments about Kovalevsky, Uspensky, and any other "sky" coming out of Russia these days.I don't think any Russian skater is automatically the new plush. Artur has the same build, long and thin, same hair style, same kind of flare/attitude, same costume style, same coach, same jumps as far as air position, aproach, everything is the same but the nose.

Comparisons are natural in sport. But notice no one has been calling Gachinksy the "new Yagudin."
Thanks for posting. That's a great skate.

Well, you just wait till he switches to TAT and I am sure if Yagudin was still competing. We would hear same hatred towards his style as well. Some fans need hate.
First time poster here. Great competition so far at Worlds.
So happy for Kozuka!!!!
But I was also impressed with Gachinsky. Medal at his first Worlds? Who is the last one to achieve that?
His programs are a lot to be desired for, they seem to be very juniorish but technically he could be a force to reckon now. He just needs better choreographer. Howevber, did anybody else notice how dramatically he improved in presentation department since Euros?
Also does it mean that Russia will have 3 spots next year?
