You're right, he did complain loudly about a quadless win after his loss of the 2008 world title.
Nevertheless, I don't see how it's such a big whoop, he consistently kept saying I wanna be beaten by a guy daring to do quads. Of course it's a shame that the quad is virtually disappeared because of its still unfairly low base value and I feel it should be addressed more often.
:agree: Many skaters now use other elements to compensate the jumps and make up the scores. It has made figure skating less sport and more performance. I agree with Brian Joubert 100% that it is not good for men's skating.
Some of these skaters have to realize that Cop is about scoring the most points and not only about one jump.
Doing a quad doesn't mean you automatically win anything. You have to score the most points to win. What part of that is so hard for Joubert to understand :scratch:
If there is NO quad jumps, there is no point to talk about the "one jump". There is none. It doesn't automatically win anything but you have to at least do it in order to match the number one title, instead of making up points from other places. Are we compete for the best athlete or the best dancer?! What part of that is so hard for you to understand?:scratch:
