Joubert shoud work with Yagudin, they have many similarities but how Yagudin sells his program is supergreat.

Didn't they already do that?

Joubert doesn't have Yagudin's flexibility on the ice.

Yes, in 2003-4 or so, but IIRC Yagudin and Morozov didn't get along, so that was the end of it.

I don't get the sense that Joubert is trying to emulate Yagudin as much in recent years as he used to, and his Inception LP doesn't look particularly Yagudin-like to me. And whatever Joubert's weaknesses are, I don't think inability to sell a program is really among them.

I really hope that we will see more pro competitions following the MWO, it was wonderful seeing so many great skaters competing again. I finally got around to seeing Slutskaya and it's incredible how good she looked, especially considering she was the oldest lady entered and has given birth twice since retiring.

Yes they did work together but Joubert's coach at the time made Brian stop working with Yags. Why? I do not know. But they did work well together.
