  1. the medalists were going to perform, they kept repeating it over and over when they were doing damage control
  2. instead of ie. medalists only then a bunch of retired skaters represented by Ari so he can collect their appearance fees.
  3. not sure if there's a link to the whole thing but ISU seriously needs to enforce health and safety standards, especially in regards to children.
  4. Given how easy it is to manipulate GOE and PCS, I'd say they would have looked more or less the same.
  5. The hardest but apparently Yuzu has an advantage because of his body shape so it still doesn't deserve the most points.
  6. the full article https://www.isu.org/figure-skating/news/news-fsk/13176-isu-updates-scale-of-values-and-judging-guidelines
  7. On the topic of cancellations, USA Gymnastics has postponed everything until 2021 including nationals and Olympic trials.
  8. Australia's borders are closed until "at least December" and after that probably will only open to New Zealand.
  9. GP series is impossible with travel restrictions, 14 day quarantine rules, and severely reduced flights, 4CC Sydney is 99.99% not happening unless another country puts its hand up to take it, so that leaves only Euros and WC (unless another country wants to deal with 4CC) but would that be fair to non European skaters? Idk. I think Nationals are the only likely competitions to happen.
  10. Anyway 2020-21 season is highly unlikely at this point so everyone get ready for ISU to implement these new rules during Olympic season (and crown the winners before the tickets are even sold.)
  11. I'm not sure any skaters from Sambo could ever truly be all-rounders with the cheated jump technique they teach there. Then again, ISU can just keep changing the rules to accommodate it so who knows. My sodium levels are through the roof today.
  12. Every time that man opens his mouth my forehead gets flatter. I expect it will be concave before the next Olympics.
  13. The difference being that the USA kicked up a HUGE public stink over this but Japan is completely silent. Biles can go out wearing "GOAT" written in crystals but any suggestion that Yuzu is the GOAT gets shot down by "you can't compare eras," and "Dick Button tho" (puh-lease, guys, your flag is showing.) JSF and J media do nothing for their national treasure and just let ISU trample all over him. It's infuriating. I'm going to need to chug a bottle per q just to deal with this nonsense.
  14. It's true but how are they going to tell with out low quality camera angle and no slowmo? May as well have left it out.
