Joubert and Amodio finished with the same placement at junior worlds, didn't they? So maybe that's a good sign .France has a history of strong Men's single skaters. Right now Brian Joubert is undoubtedly the number one with five World medals on his record, but who will be Joubert's successor in France once he retires from competition? After last season, Florent Amodio has become the heir apparent.
Post no. 1500...
It's called back-bone. Perhaps another Frenchman should take a look...Although some officials within the French Skating Federation put pressure on Amodio last season to leave his long time coach Bernard Glesser in order to move to a "more famous coach," the skater stayed with him.
