Thank you soo much Siberia82!
He has also been on lokal tv and he had tears in his eyes.He was very moved by the reception at the airport and that many people were there to congratulate him.
Thanks,siberia , for Majorov's FP video. That was quite a search...
The men's competition level was (unexpectedly) high, despite the absence of Hanyu, Gachinski, Dornbush. Even making the final flight required a 3A and a 3-3. Only three years ago, a man without a 3A could win. Indeed, it's a huge progress. When most of the top junior men can do 3 3A's, the next step is obvious. I hope more junior men attempt the quad.
I wonder why Japan didn't send Hanyu to this competition since he will not be gong to the Senior Worlds.
Hanyu did not enter any junior competitions this season, because he had decided not to return to junior.
Would you be offended if he did feel that way? He won the Silver at 4 Continents and scored way higher than anyone at Junior Worlds. His decision to move up to Seniors at 16 was a good one.
Does he believe he is too good to be at Junior Worlds already at 16?
Do you feel Dornbush's decision was similarly good?
Canada's Nam Nguyen wants to skate Senior next year after winning Canada's Juniors this year at age 12 and no more than 4 1/2 ft tall. His goal is to be in the top 5. I bet he's shooting for the Senior's podium 2013. He will be battling it out with Nathan Chen of the US, culminating at the showdown at 2018 Olympics.
It will be Chan and Nguyen in just a couple of years. You've got to give it to Canada that despite the lack of depth, there is always the next one to carry the torch and shine on the world stage.
I read somewhere he wanted to go to the Junior Worlds but was persuaded otherwise by his federation. Is that right?
Do you feel Dornbush's decision was similarly good?
Doesn't Nam have to skate Senior in Canada because he won Junior? The funny part is that he doesn't even qualify for Junior international events yet. He is very exciting, incredibly talented, and a very bright light. I agree that in a few years, it will very likely be Chan and Nguyen. Just crazy, crazy talent in both of those young men.
