Ok, We have two groups left to go. Who will win??? I am so excited. I can't wait.
Doggygirl said:The final placements were definitely a "mix up" from the SP results. I always like that sort of competition - keeps me on the edge of my seat.
My BIGGEST wonder is about Joubert's LP. I was multi-tasking while Eurosport audio was on in the background, so I was not fully listening to the music. Did he change some of the cuts on the back half of the program? I got that impression from some of the comments on FSU. I so WANT to be impressed by Joubert, and was last season even though he's not totally my style. But that 1492 program has just sucked so far this season IMO. It sounds like he's already made some positive changes and I can't wait to hear more about that. Would LOVE to have a full field of great Men skaters for World's, and it sounds like BJ has turned a big corner.
Plush's style isn't necessarily my favorite either, but man o man you have to admire him as an athlete and competitor. When I heard the WOW's from the commentators when he did the 4-3-2 opener, there was no doubt in my mind he would pull off the win.
Coming off of injuries, Lambiel put in a good performance it sounds. Just needs to get the back "9" of his LP as good as the front "9" of the LP and his SP. Contender for podium at world's for sure.
So many people speculated about Stephane L possibly being a "one hit wonder" with World's in his home country last year. Hmmm. I'm not so sure about that.
If nothing else, following the European Men's Comp has given me some new opinions related to the "Does Johnny Need A Quad" discussion. Seems there are a number of Men who have quads, and also have skating skills and presentation to boot. Johnny Go Get Your Quad.
yes,the guy does not need anyone to left a door open (something you can't do against him) to win lol! Plush is a masterful skate. he knows what he has to do to win,I just hope he doesn't push himself too hard there's still worlds.
He has improved it indeed. Didn't like it that much at Nationals, but I find it very enjoyable now. The music has been rearranged and the program in its integrity looked very strong.diver chick said:Okay, really really like Brians 1492 program, haven't seen it before now but based on what I have read he must have improved it drastically from earlier in the season.
Shaky landing on the quad combo and a couple of over rotated jumps so has definitely left the door open for Plushenko.
