My impressions of top ten
Patrick Chan. Wow! That was cool. I saw his nationals but downloaded from youtube. When you watch it live during competition and on the world champ it empresses hundred times more. And I'm very proud of that three records was made on the special Moscow ice
Takahiko KOZUKA. So happy for him. He was just brilliant in the free skate. And you know what? He was as much brilliant in the preliminary round too. On this champ he had to skate his long program twice. Our tv got interview from Artur Gachinski just after his skating and he said that he will be watching and rooting for Kozuka because this champ is harder for him then for anyone else.
Artur Gachinski. Oh, yes! That was Mishin's answer to everyone who sighed with relief when Plushy was disqualified. Next year they will come together.

Michal BREZINA. I love his skating but now I see that he has to do something with his jumping technique. He can beautifully land quads but he spends too much energy. This prevented him from winning the bronze medal. Artur was not tired at all after his program and Michal was half dead.
Daisuke TAKAHASHI. It's live. And I really admire his strong spirit. His routine was piece of art. May be he didn't won medal this time but he won love and respect from everyone.
Nobunari ODA. Well... What can I say... This is not only the counting problem. He is already in the history of figure skating as the only medal favorite who managed to be not qualified for the long program. Before he had problems with bootlaces. You never know what will happen to him next time.
Florent AMODIO. Sometimes I think Morozov should be a little tougher to his students. He goes too far trying to discover their individuality. He is the exact opposite of Mishin in this matter. But all the same, it was great!
Brian JOUBERT. He is still the most charismatic person no matter how he skates. Even our commentators abandoned their position and ran to throw him toys.
Richard DORNBUSH. He was really good. I hope for big future for him. Unfortunately his routine was a bit unsuitable for this audience. Russians used to another interpretation of Sherlok Holmse and they were just on a different wave.
Javier FERNANDEZ. And this is the skater whom I love. His wolf from “Nu pogodi!” in the short program was so funny! And then he did two quads in the FS. His brightness and originality will be well appreciated one day.
