Ladies and gentlemen, because it's off-season, we are bored here. And we have run out of ideas to start a new key-board war. We are too tired of YunaMao's fan war, and Yulia-Polina thread is going nowhere with a series of limitless definitions about musicality.
Then suddenly icenetwork provided us with an amazing theme for a new discussion. Here is the article: http://web.icenetwork.com/news/2014/08/25/87431632/
According to the article Joshua Farris and Maxim Kovtun are both poised to be the breakout stars next season, with Joshua Farris in the lead (4.5 points) and Maxim Kovtun second (4 points). It's kinda sad that they seem to write Jason Brown and Max Aaron. I don't get it! Jason is by far the most exciting to watch, and Max Aaron are no less wonderful. I have no dislike toward Joshua Farris, I like him pretty well. It's just I think it's unfair to write Jason and Max off.
So I dare to include all of their name on the title. I hope we will have a friendly and objective discuss. And the point of this thread is to compare the strength and weakness of these young talents who are relatively in the same generation.
PS before hand: We do not discuss Yuzuru Hanyu and Javier Fernández here, because of too much pinkness in the previous thread (you know, we almost planed a wedding and honeymoon). And it's not fair to bring up these 2 because in term of achievement, they have a long line of medals already and I am tired of reading about Yuzuru's posture and Javi's Zayzak mistakes.
So there is this little comparision made by me, in my humble opinion:
Presentation: Jason > Max > Joshua > Kovtun
Jumping ability: Kovtun > Max > Joshua > Jason
Spin: Jason > Joshua > Kovtun > Max
Footwork: Jason > Joshua > Kovtun > Max
Speed: Kovtun > Max > Joshua > Jason
Package: Jason > Kovtun > Joshua > Max
Attitude: Jason = Joshua = Max >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kovtun
Achievement: Anyone check their list of medals for me, please? Karne? Help!
Please share me your ideas about which great skaters in the paste that you think these youngsters remind you of?
And last but not least, who do you think is the most complete skater among these boys? I hate to say this, but I think it's Kovtun. Because he is Tat's favourite.
Feel free to discuss!
