Next weekend it will be more interesting for us here Wink

. Brian will be starting at NHK next week. Lets hope that the latest training with Albena and Maxim last week shows some results, and that he now really did what they told him: To train the complete/whole SP and LP in one part, and not to train the jumps and small parts of the programs only isolated...
:angel2:

Can you watch Grand Prix series 2009 LIVE?
In Italy NOTHING this year.. Evil or Very Mad

No RAI, no Sky, no Eurosport.. nooo

Only a summary at Tuesday ( to morrow Cup of China..)

Pia, I haven´t found it in German TV either... scratch

...
We have good old Youtube cheers

(At least as long as youtube does not close all the accounts of the Grand Prix posters as it did last year... shocked

)

It seems he really did Razz

. At least Brian told so to the press... Razz

Translation of the important passage is here (second post from the top):

Thank you Petra!

..So Brian, in accord with Albena and Max, removed a bit of choreografy...... Rolling Eyes

Let's hope! poklon

After the CD in NHK Trophy, leaders are Davis/White and the Kerrs are 3 point behind them. Unfortunately, there's some problem now with the loading of the page with the results...

And here are the results after men's SP cheers

Brian is leading:

Good news, Vania Very Happy

!
The SP was his weak program during the two competitions he did this season. The LP that is to come tomorrow always was has strong program.
Now let´s hope he´ll keep his nerves, and will do again what Max and Albie told him!!!

This really looks much better cheers

! Not perfect (the lutz), but much better!!!

P.S.: Brians new costume Laughing

reminds me of a costume of Maxim some years ago lol!

(only Maxim´s was a little more open...).

The influence of Albena and Maxim is everywhere... :smile:

Now the costumes for LP and SP are similar to Max´s former ones... :mdr:

And it really seems to me there are some changes in the SP too: the opening passage somehow looks a bit different... scratch

Thank you Viki zvet

for this interesting inside "behind the scenes" Smile

...

And to Brian and the Ex of NHK I just want to add:
His jumps in the exhibition were clean Exclamation

(This is something that gives hope for the coming competitions.), his steps fantastic (little Yagudin Laughing

).

Brian Joubert, EX, NHK 2009:

And to the SP/LP:
As I said before: muuuuch better, but he still will have to work on the technique of his jumps! He did not fall at NHK, but again he unnecessarily gave away a lot of points with his jumps (rotation after landing, wrong edges...). :angel2:
