Any Tomas updates?

His official website has links to some interviews, but the only language available is Czech. I might try to find an online translator to see if I can make out what he says. http://www.tomasverner.com/Media/13W.folder.aspx

Verner and Bøezina: Our names already have weight

For the first time in career together will build Russia-French block. Krasobruslaři Tomáš Verner and Michal Bøezina to me dopřejí luxury feeling that not themselves. Its kamarádstvím they intend to make the final clearance before Olympics much deptat opponents. On the ice but kolegialita party. "Certainly it still do these before themselves,' should jasno Verner. "SLAUGHTERED Tomé? This I would be happy strašně, "culil is the four years younger Bøezina.

Do you consider as an advantage that you in startovním field two quality Czech krasobruslaři? It has to be an impact on the arbitration or opponents, that the tell you in general: The Bohemia caution?

Verner: "It is a healthy and positive case for team spirit and between klukama certainly will leave impression. They know who are we, know us and respect. Our names already have weight. "
Bøezina: "In accordance with me this will be seen. The first served only Tomáš single greatest threat and the second at up to somewhere at the rear, now already budíme greater respect. That we are two, which many countries have not, means the larger chance sends competition, which it may znervóznět. And as well as well as we know that we are two and we can run more at rest. But it is only presumption. "

Verner: "When now I will speak with the outside mistrovství Europe, it is difficult to see when you itself, be teams America or with, as of the product together such healthy nadšený. It is therefore power well that the US this effect. For Czech ice is certainly step forward.

So that the presence of second helps in particular mentally?

Bøezina: "On the stadium themselves nevšímáme. This is each focus on their own performance. When we are but the hotel, we can to promote psychologically, because we are good friends. The Rusů with Pljuščenkem no one general and the French, even if they engage as a team and the Joubert takes everything to themselves and power with any does not want to talk, what I am so he saw in the last mistrovství Europe. This could also nalomit, when us with Tomé will see together. "

Whom you consider to be its largest opponents to me?

Bøezina: "Pljuščenko, Lambiel, Joubert. These are borci, what vision already long and have a much greater name than I. Even though I always thought sends it can each and the GP in Japan to me this effect, for me will be the main opponents two Russians and both the French. "

Verner: "I will be repeated, because I am to several times things, but I am to me. I have correctly set up under Title and stop thinking that I am not just an ideal preparation. Then zajedu good plant.'

And Tomáš Verner versus Michal Bøezina?

Verner: "Michal is excellent bruslař and power well known him not only from competitions, but also from training. I would does not wish to consider it as the opponents, but prohnal me to mistrovství Czech Republic and I him I intend to return. Yet it do these before him. " (Laughter)

Bøezina: "If able Tomé slaughtered, certainly I would be happy strašně, he is but also name elsewhere. Anyone nepřeju nothing špatnýho, but each/, which shall be placed in me, me do it joy. "

Your starts to me and OH divided sedmadvacet days, it is for that period of time something natrénovat, or can be improved? Whether the physical, or in psychological preparation?

Verner: "As psychological preparation will be good location on mistrovství Europe, the physical further illustrates the tréninkovém volume. It will be important doing no eskapády and retain the performance. "

Bøezina: "In the Vancouver odlítám already 4 February to aklimatizaci. The travel lasts nine hours and even if I am with this in the GP in Canada or Japan not problem, always everything prospím, with Mr Divínem and trainer we agreed that security so will be better. No, and it is then there is nothing cannot on. It is up, what will form, as man picks environment and how I will feel directly in the time. "

Verner: "I shall be for a European championship for a few days I in Prague and then already, I will prepare in turn in Oberstdorf. Time shifts zvládám well, so that neplánuju arrive in Vancouver undergone separately soon. In one of the plants in Canada to me by the majority pays come few days before them.

Tomé ye are the entire December that with the consequences after viroses and loss fitness. How are you on the physical one week before me?

Verner: "The GP America I am he brought the influenza and long I laboroval to health. The weight I have lost three kilograms, which from kondičního point of view it has not been good. Still the training deficit I am, but I am an all for me to odjížděl championship with a net Title and he its maximum. "

Of what are you in training most work?

Verner: "My call for assistance,. Francesco Sinelli and baletka Italian theatres Laura Costa, with which I am he has cooperated already in past years. Although their profession in the full time, přikývli on my request and came to me. We Ladili details in the programme and Francesco helped me to health. As massages, as well as in cuisine, me nabral muscles. It was that I am not need to itself take care of was ".

Bøezina: "We have this week much pilovali created the choreography and the new step passage in the short programme, as they old the arbitration power nelíbily. We also have worked for the combined entry flipa, entry toeloopa and entry rittbergera, which power krasobruslařů tried so far. But this is still the future, this to me only managed párkrát. "

Setkáváte in the ice in Oberstdorf often? How to look like? The Radíte, svěřujete or only after očku you development of second?

Bøezina: "The end of December we in the ice potkávali every day. But we have other will, so that the neradíme. Rather we, as the second is doing and we try to be even better. The presence of second us hecuje. "

Verner: "I think that will not endanger anyone look, as a matter do others. With Michal we have no need for themselves from its. Koukáme, when the second skáče as difficult as him. We have the same training hours so that we ice together, but jezdíme only themselves to themselves and power the nepovídáme. This rather in šatně or when broaching. "

MICHALE ye are still in the establishment not čtverný leap, schováváte have him to Tallinn?

Bøezina: "We him each training, but with trainer I have agreed to see on the spot. Will depend, what extent will the main competitors. "

When you at the beginning season went to its first GP between senior citizens, your objective was overcome 200 points. Finally it was bronze and almost 218 points. Before the European šampionátem already you could be sebevědomější, no?

Bøezina: "Again I was happy, if repeated results in the Grand Prix. Objective is therefore has two net running and reach over 200 points. Still it is a cross the border, which do not each achieved. But if zajedu what is věnuju in training, it should be povést. "

Verner: "The aim is has good plant.'

:laugh: I know it makes no sense, but this is what I came up with on freetranslation.com . . . somebody save me.

Latest news from his official site:

Michal Brezina wins the Czech national title

Tomas skated at Czech nationals last weekend and unfortunately finished in 2nd place. Winner of the event was Michal Brezina who skated clean in both the short and the long program. Read more...

In the short program Tomas fell on both the quad and the triple axel. "I'm really sorry about this, but this is not the most important part of the season, that comes mid-january. I'm very unsatisfied about my SP. Especially on the axel, that was my mistake on the run-out of the jump. With the quad I was just on the ice all of a sudden, I wasn't even really aware of what I did wrong." Tomas commented about his performance which earned him only 62.39 points.

In the long program Tomas did a lot better and scored 140.82 points. He fell on the opening quad again and the second toeloop was only a double, but he did manage to land all the other triple jumps. "I'm satisfied about the LP. I jumped everything which I could, eventhough I fell on the opening quad and only doubled the second one." Tomas commented.

Tomas hopes to be in top-form again soon. At Nationals he was still slightly affected by the flu he had during and after skate America; "I was in bed for a week, that's not ideal and I am slowly recovering. Not that something is still bothering me healthwise, but I don't have the stamina right now which I had at the beginning of the season. Now it's up to me to get that back. I want to gain my power and my self confidence back, which I don't have right now. There will be time to work out the mistakes in training and with that the mistakes in competition. I believe I will get back to the same form as I had at the beginning of the season." Tomas commented to CTK.

Full result details and protocols from Czech nationals can be found here.

In the next few days Tomas will fly to France to skate a show in Courchevel and afterwards he will concentrate on training to be ready for the European Championships. You can do it, Tomas!
