I just wish Feds will discuss the situation beforehand with officials so it wouldn't be last minute drop out (maybe I'm naive though cuz ISU = big Feds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might negatively affect programs or skaters that feed off the crowd. Expand In Yuzu's case I wouldn't be too worried about him skating in front of empty rinks. I think, the aura would be similar to Parisienne Walkways in Jordan's On Ice Perspectives. It's unusual, but Yuzu totally sold that program to me in the video. In a way it would be very interesting to see a performance like Notte Stellata in complete silence with no audience. Imagine the gala with dimmed lights and little Swanyu skating on the ice with one spotlight following him... However. Competition without Pooh-rain wouldn't be the same. Also, the flower kids would have nothing to do, if no one threw gifts on the ice... That would be really sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If they put a camera man on the ice with a live feed to follow the skater around, they could have a competition without anyone having to travel at all. each skater could perform from their home rink, the judges could score via videoconference, and because the camera would be right on the ice following the skater around, any funny business in the scoring would be immediately apparent.

Expand For some reasons I have my doubts that the ISU is capable of arranging online judging. That means, every dinosaur of a judge and technical specialist needs a computer at home, fast internet and a judging software that sends the scores to the ISU in realtime. Ewn... Not to mention that US and Rus fed can't wait to fight out, who has the better software hackers to manipulate the online scoring. Poor Yuzu might end up with a negative total score in that virtual fed war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
