Xen Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Um, has there been a reason released by Pchiddy's team yet? o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liv Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I feel pretty certain this is a mental thing rather than a physical one... or rather, maybe he's physically drained and feeling not ready because he's mentally exhausted. I hope he can overcome whatever ails him because he came back and put in all that effort to compete and try for another Olympics. I want him to achieve that goal and be proud of the skates that he will do there... and so I wish him the best of luck in getting to where he needs to be to do that. C'mon, Patrick, win the battle. I want to see those beautiful skating skills that no one else in the world can match, and I mean no one, despite the marks the judges are giving you. Every skater is envious of his mastery of the blade and when he retires so do those skills in competitive skating. Insert other media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreatLakesGal Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 This is turning into quite a year for Marina. First Gracie, now Patrick. I've happy for Keegan. I'm sure he'll give it his all and appreciate the experience of skating another GP event in a country where figure skating is so popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yatagarasu Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 This could really muck this up for Canada for the Team Event, they are relying on him there. He doesn't have a viable replacement. So overall, probably a good thing to skip NHK and try and recharge and rest, going forward. Not like he has to skate in a GP, there are plenty of minor events so he can use one of those for some practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axelsandwich Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I wonder if he'll go to 4CC then...will he need the ranking points so he's not skating super early? I hope he can rest and be revitalised for the Olympics. This was a rough time emotionally and mentally to put out what he did at Skate Canada given it seems like he's struggled with readjusting his headspace in this new quadster environment and it must be demoralising to see his PCS not holding up either. No doubt that's playing on his mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liv Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Not a surprise. He's been through a lot the last few years and he's not young anymore either. I hope he enjoys his last year and makes some good memories for when he moves on to the next stage in his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
