Miho's favorites

Evgeni Plushenko He is my second favorite skater. I'm not crazy about his skate and I think Johnny Weir is more talented as a skater except quads jumps. But I like his cool personality. He never boast his high scores after the competition.  He is always very calm as if he is not the winner, nothing was happened. It reminds me legend of Nadia Comaneci who got perfect 10 scores 7 times in 1976 Olympic gymnastic. It was very interesting to watch Plushenko's interview after finished his short program in Olympic 2006. Plushenko got score more than 90 in SP and the interviewer was asking about his short program performance , and Plushenko said  " I don't want to talk about it right now because it's just finished short program and the competition has not finished yet. " But the interviewer continued asking about " what messages do you want to give to Russian people now ?" and he looked really annoying for the interviewer and sa

It was very pain to watch this year's men's Championship figure skating for me.   My favorite skater Johnny Weir had injury with his back and he was not good condition for this competition because of the pain. We are wondering why they held the Championship this time so close to the Olympics , it's only 3 weeks from Olympic game and most of the skaters looked exhausted, and some had problem with their body.  It should be held much later so that skaters can get a time for the rest and training. Johnny skates very good in the Short Program with music " Swan " .  Only in the combination spin part , he little bit lost balance. In the free program, he skates with music "Otonal" by Raul DiBlasio, he did great quad , and his performance was very artistic and beautiful as usual even though he had back pain!  It's incredible ! but in the triple turn jump, he fell down and hit his body hardly on the ice and could not get up soon because of his

I've never watched men's figure skate before.  But this year , I was impressed by two men's skaters " Johnny Weir " and " Evgeny Plushenko "in preview on TV. So I was curious to see them. Johnny Weir He was the biggest impact person for me and my husband in this Olympic. When I first saw him on TV, I thought he is a Russian skater because of his classical artistic image and I couldn't believe he is from U.S.A. Later we found out he loves Russian style and his coach is a Russian lady. The music was Otonal. I like this music and that was really fit with his beautiful skate and his image.  Every detail of his performance was artistic , smooth and beautiful that brought me his romantic world.  I watched his skate over and over and never bored. I don't know why but his performance was like magic.  Normally, it's enough to see once or twice for most of the performers. My husband and I are usually easy to be bored .
