Pammi Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 1 hour ago, barbara said: It's not that I dislike NC personally, Pammi, it's just I am infuriated how he's pampered by judges, and Yuzu almost punished for having been the best ever for so long I agree totally....though I have to say today I even felt cross with Nathan himself, even though it isn't his doing and he seems to be a lovely young man. It feels like Yuzuru is treated unfairly even when he is not there! 111, for THAT, practically the same as the iconic Olympic Chopin and the PERFECT 4CC Chopin, I find it insulting on Yuzuru's behalf, the years he has worked on that to bring it to absolute perfection.... I'll have moved on a bit by tomorrow (hopefully) and will be back to only blaming judges and feds! EDIT: oh and I had to psych myself up to watch Nathan too - even then I had to watch with my eyes scrunched up, and even more scrunched up for the scores!!! Link to post Share on other sites

Still he can go to junior world's (if there will be one). Nice skate from him. Link to post Share on other sites

river Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Well, that started well... See that choreo sequence though? That's why I'm a Camden fan. That's why everyone should be a Camden fan. (Also. Camden, honey. Your spins.) Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if there will be a gap if it is the same competition. He was already on par from Saitama, especially in FS, so I don't have illusions about judging being it domestic comp or international.

Lunna Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Not bad skate from Ilia, but what was that white sleeve? Link to post Share on other sites
Pammi Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Nathan's free - landed 3 quads(Lutz and 2 toes), popped 4S and popped 3A and scored only 7 points less than Yuzu's 5 quad FS at GPF.... just what you'd expect I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites

Fulcher Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I wondered whether Nathan Chen lost some popularity points in China now that he was skating to the music of Philip Glass. Link to post Share on other sites

I couldn't see much pushing going on myself but then I am not an ameri... oops I mean an expert like Tara Link to post Share on other sites

Melodie Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I just watched the video of Nathan's FP with Tara and Johnny's commentary. I don't know if there were some glitches mid-way but I heard Tara said "so much speed and flow" before Nathan even jumped and I honestly thought "what a mood" Link to post Share on other sites
