Sombreuil Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I am very irritable. A Nathan Chen fan has done a vid comparing him to John Curry - carefully curated bits that pick out 'balletic' arm movements and some of those transitions that got ditched as the season wore on, and conveniently leaves out the stiff legged landings and heavily telegraphed jumps. Nathan can jump but he doesn't skate fluidly enough to be compared to Curry, and superimposing the comments about Curry from the likes of Anthony Dowell over footage of both skaters sits badly with me - the implication that he is a modern day version when he cares nothing for the artistic side and has said so makes me very angry.

I think I know what you're talking about, and where it came from. Don't worry, there are more credible sources that compare Yuzuru to Curry.

Ouch, that's pretty insulting to Curry, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xen Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Not sure if anyone else here is an Uncle Kurt fan. Came across this video of him doing amazing bladework on pond ice-which is less smooth and more taxing. (seriously though, it's just because I'm in awe of Kurt's footwork and SS): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've skated on outdoor rinks in the middle of the winter, not even pond ice, and it's so exhausting. Respect. Seriously, though, that footwork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katonice Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It feels so weird posting photos of Han Yan here. Still not used to the idea of him being retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
