Who do you think will win the title in Men's?

Also name your favorite skater in the thread and give us three words (adjectives) that defines him for you.

Sorry, I can't choose between Daniel, Dmitri, or Deniss :love: They're all my favorites! So I'll give each of them one adjective.

Daniel - charismatic
Dmitri - precocious
Deniss - charming

I had to pick Deniss because he is my personal runaway favourite, but realistically Samohin would be hard to beat if he skated like he did in the Euros...

3 words for Deniss
Adorable
Radiant
Dazzling :agree: :love::cheer:

Who I think will win: probably Dmitri Aliev.

Who I like the most: Daniel Samohin, but I can't exactly pinpoint what it is I like about his skating so I can't do the adjectives...:slink:

This is definitely Dmitri's to lose, now that Sota and Nathan are out.

My favorite, though is Deniss:
- spinning
- joyful
- charismatic

Sure here he is, there is even several Romans skating here like Savosin and Galay.

Oh okay. Next time, I suggest you put the last name if there are more than one skater with the same first name.

I apologize if it sounds rude. I tried very hard to not make it sound rude.

Nah, that wasn't me your quoted originally but MasterB. I am sure MasterB ment Sadovsky, I was just trying be a bit funny and point out he/she could have ment one of the other Romans who will actually skate here.

I was on practice today. I voted to Samohin. He is in great shape. He landed in 3 perfect 4Ts , two perfect 4Ss, one 4T+3T. Dmitri didn't. I didn't see him to land in quad. But I didn't watch him all the time, of course. I didn't see Dennis, because I had no time more, he was in last group. I liked Samarin, and Zhou, too. But they had no quads.

Great that Daniel is looking good...too bad about Dmitri.

I hope Daniel didn't use up all his good quad attempts in practice. :laugh: I'll be so upset if he falls 5 times like at the JGPF. And I don't think the other guys are necessarily in trouble if they didn't do quads in practice; I guess everyone has their own strategy. They are all so unpredictable, but I suppose that makes it exciting.

Jackie Wong predicts Deniss for the win. :eek:

My favorites are by far Samohin and Vassilievs and both have a good chance in the absence of Sota and Nathan. Given his technical prowess, Samohin should take it, but all junior men are so inconsistent that the gold is really a toss up between Samohin, Vassilievs and Aliev.

Can I change my vote? :biggrin: Daniel did mistakes... Dima, Deniss were great, but Samarin amazed me. He has huuuge jumps and he is an elegant skater. But I' ashamed of myself, because I dinn't know the french skater, Kevin Aymoz name. He was awesome, too. He is one of my favorites now. He is very promising!
