I like a quote from one of the ice dancers, that if our dreams don't scare us, then they aren't big enough. What a reminder to dream big!
But, without skaters like those in the past such as Michelle Kwan and Davis & White, I don't really have any "favorites". There also aren't any who would be considered established champions these days. Even though there are several with potential and have stood on the podium, none have been consistently on the top.
So, far, I've been most impressed with Karen Chen, and I liked her choice of music "Requiem for a Dream". Good for her that she made it on the podium her first time at seniors just as she set her goal to do. I also really enjoyed hearing the Piano Guys music being used in a figure skating program.
25-Jan: I've always like Adam Rippon, but up until now, he really hasn't fully lived up to his potential. It was so great that he was able combine all his great abilities together to throw down an excellent program for these championships! I'm glad he made it back on the podium. I also really like Jason Brown's personality, contagious excitement, and his performance ability. I do hope that he'll be able to add a quad soon. They were both great to watch.
