Not since Kurt Browning have we seen a Figure Skater who can perform as a stage dancer, and with music that is basically syncopated. Watch out Stephane!
I must agree with you both. Abbott and Rippon are both musical skaters, but as the humble opinions go, I go with Brezina, and after this Oly, he will be among the most talked about skater. :thumbsup:
Brezina and Abbott are great skaters in their own right, but not special in the way John was or Adam could be one day.
Oh now I know who you mean. Yes, I quite liked this skater today and his program, one of the few who I did really like. Actually Kurt Browning compared Michal to Jeff Buttle - who happens to be this kids skating hero and who he wants to meet when he comes to Skate Canada. Very talented skater.

I don't see the comparison there.
Browning makes a better comparison.
Brezina definitely has the makings of a special skater, but there is much improvement to go still in his presentation abilities before I would consider him "the new Johny Curry".
Abbott fits that bill much better and has proven himself to be a true artist.
BTW, Brezina's 3Flip is amazing. I thought it was a Quad when he did it one time.
