Duminica s-a terminat si Campionatul Mondial de Patinaj Artistic.Dupa parerea mea, anul acesta Campionatul Mondial de la Göteborg a fost destul de interesant si cu multe surprize.Dar cea mai interesanta lupta s-a dat in proba masculina .Aici prima surpriza de proportii a fost plasarea numai pe locul 15 a lui Tomas Verner dupa programul liber.Cu siguranta a fost una din zilele in care nu ia iesit nimica campionului european.El a ratat majoritatea sariturilor astfel acumuland un punctaj total de numai 191.94 puncte.
Un lucru la fel de surprinzator a fost si diferenta destul de mare dintre primele 3 locuri.Asfel locul Jeffrey Buttlea acumulat 245.17 puncte,Brian Joubert 231.22 puncte si Jonny Weir 221.84 puncte.Cea mai placuta surpriza, daca opot numi asa, a fost revenirea lui Brian Joubert de pe locul 6 , dupa SP ,pe locul 2 , astfel castigand medalia de argint si devenind vicecampion mondial pentru a treia oara.Programul sau liber a fost unul dintre cele mai bune sau poate chiar cel mai bun dar cum arbitri sunt cei care decid, de data aceasta ei au decis ca programul lui Buttle a fost cel mai bun desi nu a facut nicio quadrupla.Oricum ramane de admirat efortul si ambitia lui Brian de a ne demonstra tuturor ca poate mai mult,ca merita sa fie pe podium iar castigarea titlului mondial de anul trecut nu a fost o simpla greseala.
France’s Brian Joubert, who skated right before Buttle and saw the skaters before him falling apart, skated a clean, but somewhat conservative program. He nailed his opening quadruple toeloop, and then landed seven triples. Two of those jumps were flips in which he received a deduction each for use of the wrong take-off edge.
In contrast to Buttle, however, the 2008 European bronze medalist earned lower levels on his spins and other non-jumping elements, and his technical score was only the fourth highest in the field. However, Joubert’s powerful and confident performance appealed to the judges, and he was awarded the highest presentation score. He earned a new season best of 153.47 (74.11/79.36) for his routine, and with a total of 231.22 points, moved up from sixth to second overall to win the silver.
“I was so happy because I did a clean program,” said Joubert. “When I saw the components it was great. When I finished, I didn’t think that I’d win the gold… I was just happy with the way I skated.”
Joubert, wasn’t worried about his sixth place finish in the short. “With the new judging system, the placement doesn’t matter, it’s just the score. I knew I was close to Jeffrey and I knew I could win. I saw how people skated before me and I had to think about what I should do. I wanted to skate a clean program and I didn’t go for other quads.”
The Frenchman, however, was upset when he saw Buttle’s scores.
“He didn’t try a quad jump and I was disappointed about it because the new judging system is like that — it’s better to do simple and clean than to try something difficult,” Joubert said during the skaters’ news conference. “We saw Stephane try two quads, Daisuke also.
“Jeffrey didn’t make any mistakes, but he didn’t go for a quad,” continued Joubert. “I was disappointed [because] the new judging system is like that… it’s better to be simple and clean. You saw Stephane [go] for two quads, and Daisuke and I were just upset on behalf of the figure skating. We should get more points for the quad in the future.”
“I [didn't] bet on Jeffrey to win when I arrived here,” added Joubert, “but I’d like to congratulate him. He did a great job.”
