honorable mention - Cha Jun Hwan both programs, Roman Savosin both programs, Kevin Aymoz's SP, & I was really impressed w/Aleksandr Selevko (EST) esp. in the FS. Very interesting boy - I hope he'll be able to reach his potential.

1. The whole men's FP. Totally bizarre. And the whole outcome
2. Deniss' SP
3. Daniel's FP
4. McNamara/Carpenter and the Parsons getting gold and silver respectively.
5. Discussing if the French team was actually married or not (Mea Culpa. I was the one who brought it up in the first place).

I didn't watch the pairs and ice dance competition, so my impression is only about the singles

My top 5
Marin Honda (JPN) SP/FS
Wakaba Higuchi (JPN) FS
Deniss Vasiljevs (LAT) SP/FS
Kevin Aymonz (FRA) SP
Daniel Samohin (ISR) FS; three quad landings in a high quality and quite an entertaining performance!

Honorable mention:
Shocking withdrawals from the Team Russia due to injuries: Tsurskaya, the heavy favorite for the title before the SP and Fedichkina, the leader of SP before the FS
Unforgettable and unexpected ups and downs in the men's event

Nicolas Nadeau (CAN) SP/FS - buttery bladework and huge 3A
Tomoki Hiwatashi (USA) FS
Maisy Hiu Ching Ma (HKG) SP
Amy Lin (TPE) FS

That's a difficult question as I love everyone equally...

Betina & Yuri FS was great, it has so much fire and sex appeal.
Alisa SP, she just does so lovely there, so much heart in that program.
Mark & Renata SP, their race is so amazing, so much speed and power.
Anna & Martin, so happy for them to win gold. Such a talented and charming couple.
Lorraine & Quinn FS, it was just perfect ice dancing on a super high level.


I also want to say that I really like the music choice of the OC. It´s been a while that I heard Tiesto, ATB, Groove Coverage or C-Block. It instantly made me 10 years younger.

My top 5:
- Parsons/Parsons SD - Exquisite! (and record-breaking score)
- McNamara/Carpenter SD - masterful
- Parsons/Parsons FD - smokin' tango out of this world
- McNamara/Carpenter FD - out of this world good
- USA winning two top medals in ice dance!

Some of the pairs, mens and ladies was good too, but ice dance was an outrageously good competition this year. Could have gone either way right to the end.

I watched all competitions live

Kevin Aymoz- SP

Alisa Fedichkina-SP

Daniel Samohin-LP

Deniss Vasilyevs -LP

Anastasia SHPILEVAYA / Grigory SMIRNOV FD-they were the best dancers for me. And they stole the audience's heart, too. This was the only one time in the whole championships when the crowd booed the judges because of the scores.

But 5 opportunities to name my favorites is not enough for me. Samarin, Aliev, Jun Hwan Cha's SP, Jun Hwan Cha's LP. I liked Nicolas Nadeau's FS , I really liked the choreography, but sometimes I thought too much cuteness for this manly guy.
