    Wish list for 2012

    Here's your chance while Santa and the Cosmos are picking up your wishes, hopes and dreams for skaters, skating, anything at all you wish to see happen , unhappen, change, or be born.

    Just some wishes-for starters

    Patrick skates two perfect programs-no falls
    Gracie Gold rockets to the top of Ladies with wowzer skating
    Stars on Ice convinces the kwans to do a 25 city tour with MK as headliner fall/winter 2012
    Hope that MK is not changed a lot by the culture in Washinton, DC (the negative side of politics)
    Ashley Wagner goes to Worlds
    Plush has two great skates at Euros and Worlds!

    GS Forum begins the "Change CoP for the better project"
    Falling gets you no points
    Ksenia Makarova skates well and people remember her amongst the Russian babies
    Mishin smiles at a competition
    Sale and Pelletier re-marry and do a new version of "Love Story" for CSOI (ok so I like sappy endings)

    there are so many wishes---what did you ask Secret Santa for in 2012 for the world of skating?

    Check your facts before making this kind of post as if it has never happened - watch 2011 Canadian National and World even if it pains you.

    My wants are simple and few.

    Takahashi skates clean programs with quads--and again in 2014.
    Czisny skates clean programs and makes the podium at Worlds.
    Asada makes the top of the Worlds podium.

    I do believe the podium will be Mao, Carolina and Akiko in that order. It is possible Caro may take first. This has been her year, but I hope for Mao to win, as she has had a hard year thus far.

    My wishes:

    --Mao skates beautifully at Worlds, wins third World title
    --Akiko finally medals at Worlds
    --Carolina does not wear unitard at Euros/Worlds :-) . . . er, continues to skate well at Euros/Worlds
    --Mirai pulls herself together, regains her spark, skates well at Nationals
    --Alissa skates decently at Nationals, avoids falling apart again
    --Rachael retires
    --Yu-Na continues to skate in shows in North America (or even decides to compete again--unlikely, I know)
    --Shizuka performs in more shows in North America

    --Daisuke lands quad, skates brilliantly at Worlds, wins World title
    --Plushenko comes back with same jumps and improved transitions/choreography
    --Fernandez continues great season, solidifies contender status, medals at Euros/Worlds
    --Johnny Weir decides to come back, starts training seriously
    --Top 10 men at Worlds skate the way we know they can
    --Jeremy Abbott stops falling/making mistakes in every program
    --Patrick Chan stops falling/making mistakes in every program
    --Ross Miner continues to improve, makes World team, finishes top 8 at Worlds
    --Armin Mahbanoozadeh gets back on track, skates well at Nationals/4CCs, possibly makes World team

    --Savchenko/Szolkowy win Worlds with their best performance yet of Pina
    --Volosozhar/Trankov get better programs next season
    --Pang/Tong train with different coach this summer to get new perspective, address weak spots in their skating (lift positions, spins)
    --Narumi Takahashi trains with jump specialist/sports psychologist this summer; learns how to land jumps
    --Caitlin Yankowskas finds great new partner, comes back next season
    --Castelli/Shnapir finally skate a clean program at Nationals

    --Davis/White and Virtue/Moir continue to skate great and take their rivalry to new heights
    --Davis/White choose a romantic or intimate program for next season to address criticism that they don't relate to each other on ice (which I don't agree with anyhow, but still would like to see them address the issue head-on)
    --Virtue/Moir continue to choose challenging programs outside their "romantic" comfort zone
    --Shibutanis grow/improve in maturity and musical expression
    --Hubbell/Donohue win bronze at Nationals, make World team

    Love this idea!! What's the next step? Start a new thread to get ideas, then perhaps send letter with proposal to ISU?
