I was in Torino last night for the Gran Gala Lancia Ice. The show was really great and Stephane was the highlight for me along with Caro (of course ) and Plushenko following very close. Palavela was packed and the crowd really amazing. They were cheering loud for all skaters with Stephane being one of the very favourites. There was such a roar in the stadium when he was announced you'd think it was an italian skater about to take the ice! He skated 'Beautiful' beautifully 3flip-3toe and some more triples landed with ease, amazing spins as usual, he was singing all along during the program ;D I've got to meet him afterwards in the backstage. I was there with Caro and he was standing there speaking with someone else. After he was done with that person, I told him I was Caro's site webmaster and congratulated him with his gold medal at worlds and his performance at the gala. He was very sweet, he signed a little flag I had with me and spoke Italian a bit. It was great to meet him As you may know, the gala was shown live on Italian channel. If my computer doesn't act too weird you might get a surprise later on

Glad you liked the vids Stephane was amazing last night (did you hear the crowd?!? ), I enjoyed his program immensily. Caro... she's grown up so much. Maybe it's just me but I see so much improvement there! She's blossomed in a beautiful lady.

OK, just watched it for few times and it is more than beautiful! He looks really happy on the ice, in sooo good mood, it makes me feel great to see him like this! And the crowd was so nice to support him so much! Thanks again!

Thanks for the report and for the video! I'm looking forward to the Cup of Russia to see Stephane on ice.
I cross my fingers for Stephane - so that the season would be even better for him than the previous was!
