I do like Adam's attitude, I think he found the perfect response.

And also point out facets of his excellence the rest of us weren't aware of yet. It's like getting to know Yuzu all over again!

Roman again, this time with spins. amazing that his spins look so good after so long off the ice, but man, did he ever get dizzy: @SitTwizzle Skate Ontario is a seperate entity from Skate Canada altogether. Different people running the show.

So I used an auto-translation on this interview (since I don't speak Russian), and this is my favorite paragraph from the whole thing: " But now at Plushenko’s school there is a top adult skater with a coach who has done a lot for her technical progress. In the new season, they need to perform two difficult tasks - to collect five clean (or not very dirty) quadruples and add to the artistry and the second assessment. If this succeeds at least 80 percent, Trusova will close the gap of 30 points from Alena Kostornaya and Anna Shcherbakova, which she had last season. In any case, she is at least a contender for the Russian Championship medal. " i love the way the Russian sports writers phrase things.

They're not social distancing so probably not a recent photo.

It must be that Bathclin endorsement. Obviously that's good stuff. Or it could be the P&G one.

Physics are definitely optional for him.

No kidding. If you or I kissed the ice the way he's been doing during hydroblades, we'd have chapped lips and a cold sore afterwards, at the very least! Normal beauty rules do not apply to that man!

I can only dream! I never got past bunny hops.

New Romsky video. He's busy getting his jumps back. note what he says about the effort it takes to hold his arms in against the rotational force in a 3A:

Dig Florent's DBZ hat...

This would be more impressive if Plush himself was among the jumpropers...

I just know there'll be people asking them multiple times about Yuzu.

Same.

No, no, he's already sacrificed 2A for this purpose

So Gabby is back for another season. That's good. About Asher Hill....I had no idea of the story until CBC Olympics covered it this week, and his point is correct: making a statement of support means nothing if the actions don't match. As for the Brampton club assigning it's own internal investigator who sided with the perpetrator and didn't do a proper investigation of the racism directed against Asher...I hate to say it, but that kind of cronyism is very common in amateur sports clubs, in my experience. Most of them have a clique or three that try to run everything and crush anyone who gets in their way/doesn't "fit in"/isn't their idea of the 'right' kind of athlete. I've seen similar behaviour in swim teams and soccer clubs and sometimes it takes athletes leaving the club en masse to effect change...anyway, that kind of thing is all the more reason for sports governing bodies like Skate Canada to take complaints seriously and investigate them correctly. So there's multiple failures at different levels here, the racism is only the beginning. Another example: https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/hockey-is-not-for-everyone-akim-aliu-nhl

Interesting, Tuktik. https://www.rt.com/sport/490765-elizaveta-tuktamysheva-evgenia-medvedeva-canada-reasons/

But don't you think the Chinese would rather see Boyang win? He's also very popular

I know! I'm dying for Kose to get off their behinds and re-launch our global muse already!

Interesting that the top two franchises originated in Japan (and I'm cheering Hello Kitty on, she's my favorite!) and also that Pooh is bigger than Mickey.

and here I was hoping for fresh Yuzu....

Given the trouble it took me just to find a few things, now I understand why they get upset!

Any indication when these were taken?

We're getting way off topic here, but in my opinion the most important thing for a mother giving birth is that she feel comfortable, happy, and secure...I personally wouldn't need my husband (if i had one) around for that, but I would need to be physically in a location that felt right to me. But as I said, it's an individual choice.
