He will be remembered for having landed a perfect, magnificent, celestial, light, fluffy, smooshy 4A... oh God I want it now... We're so excited we haven't come up with a proper song yet. Last year was "One Day More" -what should we do this year? Link to comment
xeyra Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Good news is I'm enjoying a lot of what I'm seeing from the FS choreography! Bad news is his jumps axis needs work. Link to comment

This is all feels so special, like those first Olympic practices (before we knew about the ankle pain.) It’s like we can all go back to just enjoying his skating, too. I feel so relieved and happy and calm. Welp, I’m still crying. Bring on day 2! Link to comment

Can anyone link to them again? Thanks! Here: Link to comment

I like the footwork. Think he's improved his twizzles. XD Remember how I said he had a side of twizzles that was visibly slower? It's improved....it's slower than his strongest, but way way faster than last season's. And his jumps look okay from what I'm seeing? He's a bit forward on landing, but not so tilted that he can't control it. It looks more like where I'd expect them to be, if he's only gone back to full jump training for 2 weeks (which given his recovery period makes sense). Link to comment

I'm totally blubbing because he's doing what makes him happy and honestly that just makes me so much happier than his OGM. Link to comment

But that's it. His 3Lo looks easy. Edit: in case it hasn't been hammered in enough, I love all the little leaps and jumps that have similiarities to ballet jumps, just woven into the choreography. It really does feel like a tribute to ballet's contribution to FS. It's just little little stuff liek this, so frequently seen in his programs, that make his programs stand out. Link to comment

Yeah, my assumption on Media Day is that he invents a layout especially for Media day, that is loosely connected to his actual competition layout, and it's more connected to his current abilities, his current rehabilitation step, and the fact that he wants to show a complete program, so he will not insert elements that are still unstable - but only elements that he can jump pretty easily and not in top form. So 4T, 4S3T, also I saw two 4L, one was landed so-so, but the other one was good! So I really believe his 4L is almost completely back. Link to comment

I've been 0.0 since last night about that one. His jumps are fine. Link to comment

I hope he enjoy skating like he did in pre-sochi, sometime I feel he skates with so much pressure and expectation to be perfect after he became Olympic champion. I missed yuzu who enjoy skating like when he did PW at Olympic (when I saw it, I feel like he's having fun doing it) Link to comment
