The best male program this year

[Michelle7Kwan]

<FONT FACE="Verdana,Arial" SIZE=2>Just vote for the program that had the best music interperation. The one that was the best chrographed. This does not have anythingto do with the skaters talent. Plus which do you think has the most talented program and you think could very well suceed next season for male skaters. Sorry about not adding Todd Eldregde. I had no idea what his program was called. I think the best were Alexei's, Timothy's and Elvis's. Probaly my choice would go to either Tim or Alexei. Who do you think it is and why? </FONT><FONT FACE="Verdana,Arial" SIZE=2>Results (total votes = 23):</FONT><table bgcolor=#FFFFFF border=0 cellpadding=3 cellspacing=0 width="75%">

I think Todd Eldredge's program was called Lord of the Rings. If you can add it to the poll then please do because it was also one of the top programs out there this year.

I thought An American in Paris is well choreographed but Timothy wasn't so convincing in selling it well. If it was a young Kurt Browning doing this program it would have been great.

Sorry williamfu01 I don't think I'll be able to add it. That was a wonderful program without a quad, but then the quad is'nt everything. I love his spins, when he spins it's like a tornado on ice.

When Tim was INto it it was on FIRE!!!! but... every now and then he'd kinda just be like "concentrate" and it wouldn't turn out as ripe and great....

While I love "The Man in the Iron Mask," I have to go with Todd's "Lord of the Rings." I don't care about the quad, and everything else he did in the program was done beautifully and passionately (particularly at the Olympics). "An American in Paris" was a wonderful program for Timmy, but he still has a ways to go with the artistry, which I hope he will continue to develop over the next few years.

Sentimentally speaking, I love "Dragon." It's definitely my favorite Elvis program, even though he had some difficulties with it this season. I loved Plushy's "Carmen" when he performed it on our stop (Phila.) of the COI tour. He was very impressive (even though the music has been overused).
