Everyone look the same since CoP is there . I find myself as a skater that the sport is really boring compare to the old times.
In the past, every skater have the freedom of doing everything they want! They were better program in the 6.0 systems, no one care about the bullet GOE and the levels on spins/footwork etc. this was simply magical program with a lot of personnality and doing all the element they want to correspond with the music and doing a show with the audience.
I miss this kind of skating and it's times for a change because it's the real reason why figure skating is less popular every year!
I find myself that the freedom that give the old system give less pressure to the skater and that they were able to perform even better than today. For example, Brian Orser program : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSCr-A8T5qQ his jump look impressive, and we can see the freedom in his face and his personality in the landing of his jumps that we don't see in today skater. Today skater are like robots controlled by a system of points
Is there is any solution for return to a system who give more freedom and personnality for the skaters ?
