As usual, I am in search of videos. So  any BESP/ESP videos for the free? Or what else do we have besides the CBC/NBC ones? I have TAT too and few others but more, more :biggrin:

I've been gushing over Boyang for ages so join the club. He's such a sweetie and honestly, I have mad respect for him. He's worked so hard to try and improve himself as an overall skater. He could have gone down the road of just piling on the jumps but he's trying to raise the level of his overall skating and mad, mad respect. I suppose this is why Ashley's bs annoyed me more this time around. Anyway I know it's a long shot but I wish he'd change choreographers so that he could get the programs that truly showcase what he's achieved.

Hah, I'm also going to join that club. His SP this season truly won me over. I like that he's voicing his opinion and finding his own music knack. With Shen and Zhao at the fore of the Chinese Skating Fed, there might be some changes, especially since Shen/Zhao respect Tracy Wilson a lot (I recall somewhere they had received warm up exercises from her and used it, it probably has made it through the entire fed now). So while they probably will not allow a full-time foreign coach, they may allow him to train overseas during the off season to work on skating skills. He's at a point that he may need foreign assistance-with Beijing looming, now's a time to start. Plus, he's made a strong case for himself with his 4th place finish. And even in some other places, he's won over new fans who are defending him against the negativity on Social Media. 

 

Also, Chinese men have never had such an outstanding placement at the Olys before. He should feel proud that he managed to do so well in such a competitive field, at his first Olys no less. I'm kind of happy that the media in China is still heralding him as the hero leading a new generation. 

 

@Murieleirum: him and Zu together at TCC? Have some mercy on Brian's hair. But you know, when asked after the FS by the chinese media, Boyang said that he didn't so much work on jumps as he just did more run-throughs of his entire programs to get the nuances. I know Boyang comes off as cute and cuddly, but the boy is competitive AF too, just not exactly in the overt way of McSwanface. Chinese media never told him he had to get a podium finish, Boyang gave that goal and burden to himself.

I think I heard Yuzu said "I can't do without you" at one point, they looked so emotional. aww...

Waking up to this and I cry again in my bed :tumblr_inline_n18qr5lPWB1qid2nw: Yuzu and Javi might not go to dinner as friends but they clearly have such an impact to each other on ice and off ice.. I became sad thinking this might be javi's last olympics (and one of his last competitions, hopefully not yet :tumblr_inline_ncmif7esGm1rpglid:)

Re: Boyang, I know he placed fourth, but what's the chance that he will be invited to the gala? :sadPooh:

 

For some reason, he's not as popular as Nathan internationally, but he's so stan worthy, yet I get the feeling that either Nathan or Adam will be invited over him. It'd be a shame for me.

Did anyone get the BESP commentary of Seimei?

I found an LQ recording from this WEIBO account. In case you can't access it, uploaded it here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1P9mSevY9Cyb-HYJ2j4jKdZaLI0vvxgJb.
