Actually his record is 5.

Yes, but he did have a record of 3 at some point and now that is broken.

he was referring to Pete's record of three consecutive wins, I believe.. not his 5-time-world-championness

Yeah, 3 in a row!
Kenny says it on TT2 (quote:"Pete didn't just win that year...he won 3 titles in a row. Which has never been done before.")!

I wasn't at Worlds but heard from someone who was that Vasek is planning on getting five in a row. Is he planning on competing AFTER that? apparently he didn't seem that motivated.

Too bad Vasek shouldn't have won in 2002.

Oops!

I miss Ryan.

Props to everyone involved in Worlds 2005, this has been the best Worlds to follow so far!

I`ve started writing about my experiences at Worlds. Its all in my blog. Kinda wordy, but theres a smattering of combos and funny stories.

I also miss Ryan very very much. And I believe that today he would beat Honza and Felix.

But in my opinion Vasek deserved to win in 2002. Forget the drop (Pincher!), he would be able to perform Ryan's routine...but do you think Ryan could perform Vasek's routine?
Messa don'ta thinka so.

1) He still dropped.
2) At that point in time, I don't know if Vasek could've performed Ryan's routine, or vice versa.
3) Ryan's routine was way better, in my opinion.

Today Vasek is better than Ryan. Heck, if you watch the 2003 routines you can clearly see that Vasek had a stronger routine.

HOWEVER

In 2002 Ryan's routine was way better than Vasek's routine. It was more exciting, it had a great amount of technicality, and he didn't drop.

2002 is over, of course, and I should just get over this. Vasek's a great player, I'm not saying that he's not. But I still think Ryan should've won in 2002.

And Felix's routine was better at Euro's this year, which I guess is a different topic, but I'm just saying that I think that Vasek shouldn't have won 2002 Worlds and 2005 Euro's. But that's my opinion. And I'm entitled to believe what I want to, even if it's different from most of the people on here. Just like you're entitled to believe what you want to believe. There are a lot of reasons that Vasek could've won in 2002, and so obviously those reasons are the reasons that he did. And that's all cool too.

Actually I don't think that Vaska would have been able to excecute Ryans rutine in 2002. He could propperly hit all the tricks but definatly not excecute it the same way.

Still I find i hard to see whom could replace Ryan and his special skills. Today Ryan don't compeete and we just have to respect the fact that we will not see him in action again. He was definatly one of the finest rutineplayers the world have seen so far.

I miss him too!

a routine is more than tricks .

In my opinion Ryan had better style than Vasek and Vasek won't reach the same style .

I like the flow of Ryans routines more .

It is strange the whole world are training to get the skills of the best players and those got their reasons not to compete-sad
