On the phone, Didier Gailhaguet unhesitatingly confirms the rumor. "Yes, Lawrence Depouilly is no longer Brian Joubert’s coach.” The president of the FFSG cites personal reasons as the motivation for the Bordelais’s decision. "Lawrence wanted to end their cooperation. It's his choice. Brian respects him even if he thought they would be working together for the next two years."
Intercepted at the exit of a meeting with the DTN, Lawrence Depouilly admitted he was surprised by the explanation delivered by Didier Gailhaguet. "It was agreed that my mission would end after the world championships. It was extended by one month so I could give myself a brief period of reflection. Brian has decided to continue his career until 2012, I’m returning to Villenave d'Ornon. But I do not want polemics. We remain friends. We had a fabulous year. With the highs of Turin and the lows, the extreme lows of Vancouver.If Depouilly goes, Brian Joubert puts him, harder. "After a difficult season, I did not expect to see Brian so enthusiastic and enterprising," says Didier Gailhaguet. He's already well on way in choosing his music for next season, which is for him quite a feat! It is very encouraging. We may have some nice surprises with innovative interpretations. "
In the immediate future, it is the director of the French team, Jean-Roland Racle who will guide Brian through the interim period whilst he looks for a new coach. "We're a bit taken aback”, admits Gailhaguet. “We have several priorities which we will address. The first is to tackle the music and choreography of the two new programmes. This summer, Brian will change his routine. Instead of training in the Alps he will cross the Atlantic. We want a disciplined person for his new coach. We will take our time to make the choice, there are two or three tracks in North America that we could follow. "
The next coach will be American or Canadian
This time, after years of procrastination, Brian Joubert ready to emigrate. "But he will keep his base of Poitiers. We know he needs it. This does not prevent him from seeing what others are doing by going to work abroad and from time to time in Paris."
Beginning next week, the Poitevin will fly to Toronto to settle the details of its new programs. The chapter of his career with Depouilly quickly comes to an end. It is true that Joubert is a great frequenter of coaching changes. This is the sixth since his debut with Veronique Guyon.Hell yeah
