- Ryan Bradley - USA
- Music is Polka by G. Kramer - Ryan could
give showman lessons to Chris Bowman, heck he could give showman lessons
to Scott Hamilton. He plays a character and keeps it throughout the
program, all in keeping with the music and skating to the music. He
landed the nicest triple axel better than I have ever seen him do. He
landed a triple/triple combo and another triple. He did that great
stretched flying camel that I have loved since he was a novice. A great
program.

- Emanuel Sandhu - Canada
- Music is Pantera en Liberto Mambo - He
landed a triple/double combo and singled the axel. Then something went
wrong with his skate and he had to stop. A hook popped on his skate and
he had to re-tie the skate. He re-started the program where he left off.
He landed a triple lutz and typically good spins and footwork. This was
a fun and flirty program, very different from the usual brooding Sandhu.
Nice to see his cute stuff.

- Tristan Thode - New Zealand

- Evan Lysacek - USA
- Music The Felling Begins - He started
out with an excellent, high triple axel. But he had trouble with the
first part of his combo and doubled the toe loop. Then he doubled his
jump out of steps. That left him with needing high pcs to beat Ryan and
Jeremy and this program wasn't going to do it for him. I am sorry, I try
to write a positive web site here, but I really hate this program. There
is an excessive amount of sticking hands up in the air for no reason and
none of the movements go with the music and the footwork is pedestrian.
Really Kurt Browning needs to stick to skating he is not a
choreographer.

- Jeffrey Buttle - Canada
- Music is Adios Nonince - I think I might
have misspelled that. Jefferely landed a triple/triple but fell out of
his triple axel. He did a terrific triple lutz great flow coming out of
it. Like Evan he needed help from the PCS, but unlike Evan this program
and his skated delivered. He has great spin positions and very fast
spins. His edges are very deep and his basic skating and stroking is
great. The ending combo spin was spectacular.

musical.
