突然发现上面贴的那张04全美Novice领奖台上,Charlie旁边那个第四名就是Stephen Carriere,今天刚在这站NHK拿铜牌的那位是也~现在MS是很有前途的一位男单了~呵呵,不禁想如果Charlie继续练男单会如何呢?说起来那次Charlie短节目结束以后排第一,但是自由滑摔了几个大马趴……那次拿冠军的小孩是个华裔,而且名字非常有个性,叫Princeton……我把USfigureskating网站上04全美的报道,讲Charlie的部分截下了:短节目领先:Charlie White (Detroit SC) has an unusual combination. He will also compete in junior dance this week with Meryl Davis, but he's also avery competitive novice men's competitor. He leads the short programportion of the novice men's competition after a good performance. He had eight first-place ordinals with his routine to "13th Warrior." A tall, confident 16-year old, he was pleased about skating in front of the enthusiastic Atlanta crowd at the Gwinnett Center. Even wearing glasses on the ice doesn't faze him, although others see it differently."A lot of the dance judges have been hounding me to get contacts," White said. "But I try not to squint too much. I just try to present out there like I see perfectly." While some skaters might have concerns about only having one practice session per day in Atlanta, he doesn't mind with double duty."I have an advantage," he said — he gets twice as much ice time with singles and dance. 倒霉的自由滑:Charlie White (Detroit SC), who led after the short program, had arough time. He barely held his jumps and fell three times. However, his ice dancing background was evident as he had tremendous flow and speed.He held on to third although he was just sixth in free skating. "There was a lot of pressure being in first, and I think I let it getto me too much," White said. "I think that is what happened." He said he felt uncomfortable as the last skater in the second group of six. "But I can't use that as a excuse," he said. "You have to do what you have to do. It didn't happen today." However, unlike others, he has a chance to rebound at the championships. He begins junior dance with partner Meryl Davis onTuesday. He is ready to make the switch. "I have been doing it for so long it is just natural. It is just as easy as changing skates,"he said. |
