[2022] US Nationals (03.01-09.01)

Featured Replies

Despite all the conspiracy theories I really want to mention that attempting and landing a stepped out 4A< requires hard work and deserves the respect. I also wish Yuzu will benefit from seeing someone else's attempted 4A.

My heart hurt so much after saw nathan score at us national. Im just a newbie as figure skating fan but im feel very insulted.wtf is that? Are they making fun of nathan or did they think we are blind? Why no one do anything!! Yes i support yuzu with all my heart but the ISU literally making clown of nathan. For what?? So that people think that US has the best skater in the world? Other skater work hard to improve their skate(yes nathan too) and yet they easily give +goe like that to skater who they want to win. Bruhh. When i watch yuzu at national i feel like ISU already make plan to give nathan higher score than yuzuru at US national and that exactly what happen.

I just watched Artur's 4A in slow motion, and he's definitely still in the air after 4 rotations, I would say it's almost 4 1/4 rotations?

 

BTW: New here ( though been lurking for quite some time), nice to meet y'all (: 

 

Hello and welcome to the Planet, @Tash and @YuDai! :welcome:

On a side note :/

 

This was apparently from a year ago, but I hope someone has told the kid how problematic that was :/

 

Surely he doesn't want to be roasted like his seniors?

 

 

 


Hi, i’m not sure if this is the right place to share but here i go.

:/ But I'm glad to read that she feels well. All the best for Tracy.:11135030:


Yes:yes2:Jason goes to Beijing.  I'm so happy for him.:happy0065:



Here a few statements

 

 


Nathan about Yuzu

 

 

I didn't watch the competition live. To be honest it frustrates me every time I see the score.

:devil3:

well said Nathan. I keep saying this but it def seems like Yuzu brings out the best in Nathan. The two falls in the free were unfortunate but we could def see how much more motivated he was here than at the gp. Everytime Yuzu skated well Nathan also did in his next competition. Too bad we havent had a chance to see them both skate clean at the same competition and most of the time its Yuzu who didnt perform well :(. Man I hope to see it at the olympic. obv they gonna give Nathan the gold but I want Yuzu to have the skate of his life!

My problem with Vincent's FS (GOE and PCS aside):

1. 4Lz-->4Lz<

2. 4F-->4Feq

3. 4S-->4S<

4. 4Tq-->4T<

5. 4Lz+Rep-->4Lz<+Rep

6. 3A+eu+3S-->3A<+eu+3S<

7. CSSp4-->CSSp3 (SS <2 revs.)

8. 3Aq-->3A<

9. StSq4-->StSq3 (both twizzles invalid, first loop invalid)

10. Deduction -1-->-2

 

I rescored the FS and his technical score dropped 32.74, plus 1 more point deduction. If US Nationals mean ANYTHING he should not be sent to the Olympics.

 

My problem with Nathan's FS (GOE and PCS aside):

1. 4Lz-->4Lzq

2. FCCoSp4-->FCCoSp3 (SF < 8 revs)

 

I also rescored this FS and his technical score dropped 20.09. Hope I'm not too harsh.

if the sport is ever fair the olympic should just be an email bc Yuzu would be miles ahead of the rest in both technique and artistry

The whole US Nationals event was a mess. With COVID wrecking the women's event (with Mariah placing above Karen, Alysa withdrawal, and Amber meltdown) and then the men's Olympic selection "controversy". 

 

Now I don't personally mind the team they selected, it's what everybody wanted/predicted four years ago. But seeing FS Twitter I can't believe how many people are outraged at Jason being selected over Ilia. Ilia certainly had the best performance in Nationals, but apart from this competition he hasn't shown us much (it was probably a mistake to keep him in Juniors this year if he wanted to make the Olympic team). I don't agree with everyone saying is should have been Ilia over Jason, if anything, I believe they should argue it was a Vincent vs Ilia thing. Vincent melts down often and I can't believe the US wasn't looking at Vincent's bombing at worlds (twice) more closely. I also don't agree with Raf arguing the reason Ilia wasn't selected is because his parents are Russian, I hardly think that has anything to do with it. 

 

As much as I don't agree with Nationals scoring, Jason and Nathan deserved their spots. Vincent is more questionable.

Maybe not an email but absolutely not these fake rivalries we are seeing now.

Oh yes, that I wish him so much:smiley-angelic001:

Jason's new Ex program.  It seems as if he had tears in his eyes at the beginning.:tumblr_inline_n18qr8XewT1qid2nw:
