Dream Podium/Wishes - Europeans 2015

Sandpiper · Jan 18, 2015

We've got the predictions game for what we think will happen. This is the thread for what we hope would happen. :cheer2:

Which skaters do you want on the podium, and which ones to win it all?

My wishes:

Men: 1. Javier Fernandez 2. Sergei Voronov 3. Michal Brezina (Also rooting for Adian Pitkeev to have a good skate)

Ladies: 1. Elizaveta Tuktamysheva 2. Elena Radionova 3. Anna Pogorilaya

Pairs: Kavaguti/Smirnov to win it all. :drama:

Ice Dance: Three wishes- One, Ilinykh/Zhiganshin and Papadakis/Cizeron to place Top 2. Two, Stepanova/Bukin to skate well and get the levels on their twizzles. Three, Cappellini/Lanotte to not have a meltdown, even though this could conflict with Wish #1. :laugh:

I would be fine with your selections, though I'd also be thrilled for Pitkeev to medal, although he is a dark horse. I like Brezina, but I'm not a huge fan.

Actually my dream top 5 would be Fernandez, Voronov, Pitkeev, Amodio, and Brezina. Highly unlikely, but we are dreaming here...

Ladies - Russian sweep, for sure. I'd like to see Mae-Berenice and Elene G. in the top 5, too.

Pairs - K/S, S/K, and Cipres/James (I like Tarasova/Morozov too, but they are young & I think it would be depressing to have Russian sweeps in multiple disciplines...depressing for the non-Russians, anyway!)

Dance - I guess P/C, I/Z and...I dunno, I like most of the others about equally, but I know nothing about the technical side of ice dance, so I'll probably be ok with whoever makes the podium here.

Interspectator · Jan 18, 2015

1. Fernandez (if you don't get gold it will make me sad.)
2. Brezina (it's a dream podium right? I love both his programs)
3. Vornov (keep going at it Uncle Sergei!)

Ladies
1. Elizaveta/Radionova (I caaaan't Chooooose!) May the best lady win.
3. Kiira Korpi (sentiment and love of her skating)

Sam-Skwantch · Jan 19, 2015

The obscure hipster that lives within me would really love to see Eveline Brunner make the podium but realistically a top ten finish would be pretty great. I really loved her Choreography this season on the JGP. Speaking of which....I'm assuming this is her senior international debut right? :cheer:

Men: Sergei and Adian make the podium with Kovtun and Javi fighting for the third spot. Hey... I can dream.

Elena and Ruslan need to win it all!!!

AnnaTheMusician · Jan 19, 2015

Ladies:

1. Korpi
2. Tuktamysheva
3. V. Helgesson

I just realized I've been Kiira's fan for 10 years! :shocked:

Men:

1. Fernandez
2. Amodio
3. Voronov

The hottest three :biggrin:

FSGMT · Jan 19, 2015

I would love to see Kavaguti/Smirnov performing well in a big competition both their splendid programs (it doesn't matter if they don't win, I just don't want disasters) and I'd like Kiira to skate her FS well, too, because she really deserves some satisfaction after all that she's been through :cheer2:

StylishDreaming · Jan 19, 2015

Ladies:
1.) Elizaveta Tuktamysheva
2.) Elena Radionova
3.) Kiira Korpi

I would LOVE to see Kiira on the podium because she's such an elegant and effortless skater, but I'm afraid she can't keep up with the younger girls technically, and she's only done one competition this season so who knows...

Men:
1.) Javier Fernandez
2.) Sergei Voronov (defend that silver!:dance

3.) Michal Brezina

Crossover · Jan 19, 2015

Men
1. Sergei VORONOV (his highest placement at Euro was 2nd last year, so if his momentum stays as he's shown us this season, he could reach the champion title. However I'd like to blame his low PCS much on the awful programs, especially the free, unsuitable music choice, edit and choreography for top skaters.)
2. Michal BREZINA (his highest placement was 3rd at Euro, but I think his lack of stamina has been a big obstacle for him to archive more)
3. Javier FERNANDEZ (I love his programs, but don't get his PCS scores, especially at GPF. He has no silver and bronze medals at Euro yet)
4. Chafik BESSEGHIER (if they had a pewter medal like U.S. nationals)

Ladies
1. Elizaveta TUKTAMYSHEVA (she deserves this)
2. Kiirai KORPI (I prefer more diversity in the podium)
3. Mae-Berenice MEITE (she is highly underrated)
4. Anna POGORILAYA (her appearance is stunning, but her skating is unpolished yet)

MsLiinaLii · Jan 19, 2015

My only dream would be for I/Z to win this! (yes, this year probably just a dream... but they will be EC sometime in their career for sure)

MK's Winter · Jan 19, 2015

My Dreams:

Ladies: I want Tuk to win this

Dance: Ruslena and P/C in this order

CutieP · Jan 20, 2015

Just Ladies:

1) :cheer:

2) Kiira

3) Liza Tuktik

Totentanz · Jan 20, 2015

Ladies
1. Tuktamysheva (Wishing her to finally win Euros title)
2. Pogorilaya :love:

(I wish she could strengthen her place in Russian team)
3. Radionova or Korpi (I would be happy if she is happy for her skate, no matter what the result is)
Dance
1. Ilinykh/Zhiganshin :love:

(This will be tough, just dreaming)
2. P/C (They are beautiful but second for me after I/Z)
3. Stepanova/Bukin (Go Eleanor Rigby!! I have no interest on C/L this season)
Pairs
1. Kavaguti/Smirnov (I'd love to see them on top again)
Men
No dreams here.

Bufo viridis · Jan 20, 2015

Ladies:
1. Elena - I want herto continue her streak
2. Liza - same as elena. Don't care which one gets the gold actually.
3. Anna - I just like her, lol

Men:
1. Fernandez
2. Voronov
3. Kovtun - what he needs is motivation and confidence to improve. A medal in an international event will give him that.
