oops, i forgot you have tickets. well i'll cross my fingers that won't be the case then...

hm, well that's smart, just let her do it, because while they both brought it at Nationals, internationally Mirai and Karen haven't been *that* successful. shibs doing both segments is a little weird, since they didn't even win Nationals.

Yeah twizzles are exactly just consecutive 3turns in fact i've heard them called consecutive 3turns more than uncentered spins, which are different bc you dont have weight shift...

I watched Starr live. She was a nice skater and clearly very emotional/excited after her skate leading to the crowd being very emotional and excited for her. But in terms of pure performance value Ashley was clearly better than Starr, who still skates like a junior and has noticeably bad posture...I don't know why people say that Ashley didn't charm the audience because she did get at least a partial standing ovation, and she was the most polished and mature skater that day when it comes to performance. (I think Karen was the best in terms of skating skills. Mariah was good too.) Her tech wasn't there though and while she's entertaining, her skating skills are weak and her noticeably spent a LOT of time doing crossovers.

Johnny's just jealous that Yuzu's falls are more fabulous than him

I'm sure there will be someone to take up where my physical ability to carry poohs leaves off..

Right, usually the athlete is not focused on how much they're getting paid. They usually have a management company that does it for them. But Yuzu doesn't have a management company, so *shrug* He probably cares less about money than the average athlete, too. Either way, I hope he never doesn't have enough money to achieve what he wants

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2018/01/lyrics-figure-skating-music-yuzuru-hanyu did anyone post this USA Today article? they mention Yuzu of course the once-a-quad interest in FS is picking up now.

Sometimes I wonder if Patrick thinks he's Yuzu? Kidding... I've been looking forward to the Canadians in the team event for a while! I'm glad he realizes he can get a gold medal. And while it's not an individual gold medal, gold is gold...

the program trashing continues...

Reposting from the Olympics Tickets thread So I just had a thought (and @robin mentioned that the Chinese fans might have done something similar at CoR), that if you aren't going to the Olympics but want to send a pooh, if you mail it to me I could carry it + throw it for you. you can ship one to me along with a letter which i can attach to the pooh. (if you send it to me electronically, i can print it, put it in an envelope, and attach it to a pooh.) so if anyone is interested, just let me know.......... It doesn't have to be me, you could also send a pooh/letter to anyone else going to the event as well.

This is pretty low, I feel. Are they just estimating? I feel like he does maybe 4-5 CMs/endorsements a year. I'd imagine they'd pay him more than $500k each even if just to use his image (i.e. stickers). I guess JSF takes a cut. I feel like his FaOI contract should be quite a lot, because he was clearly the headliner, and he sold out their tickets like several times over. Oh well. I am really happy he limits his contracts. I admire him a lot for that.

I like it a lot. It's one of the things I respect most about him. He's an athlete first and foremost. He doesn't get distracted by the attention...he doesn't lose his head in his idol status. He doesn't get arrogant like that. He stays perfectly grounded and puts training above all else. Why should he give his competitors an edge with a new video of his skating when everyone is still speculating on his condition? I'd gladly be kept in the dark if it meant his competitors are, too.

so cute

sorry but not as beautiful as yuzu's skating

Sorry, I could've told her. Every San Francisco person knows that every single car will get their windows broken into if you leave a bag inside. Won't even take 5 minutes. Sorry to Marissa though, that sucks.
