Go Kevin, and get to where you want to be

Good luck to Kevin on his forthcoming Worlds. You can do it, Kev.

Check out the video of Kevin being interviewed by two Japanese lads who think he is an ordinary tourist, but google him half way through - it's from CBC sports, retweeted by PJ Kwong. I'd copy to this post for you, but I don't know how. It is hilarious and charming! the Japanese lads seem to be participating in a TV contest or Game show and lucked out. The title of the article tweeted and retweeted is Super Skating and the video is half way down the page.

Thanks Sylvia!

LOL for those who can't read, when they asked where Kevin and Rudi are going, they said "Pokemon Center".

I know Kevin is a video game fan but that's so awesome!!

This was absolutely hilarious! The reaction of the people on the show was screamingly funny. They just couldn't believe it!

If there is anyone here who understands Japanese, could you give us an idea of what they were saying? Still laughing about this!

[PeterG]

Japanese fan sitting next to me was practically orgasmic after Kevin's skate .. apparently he's a big deal with Japanese teenage girls He was practically perfect Kevin today .. just a turn out on his 2nd quad

[clarie]

so impressed with Kevin tonight....and the crowd was totally behind him. It's a wonder he could hear his music. Good luck to him in the long. I hope he nails everything

Kevin did good can't believe he's in third. It's great. Hope he has a great LP but I feel sorry for you if he does and you are sitting by the same person

If you look at mangas catered to Japanese teenage girls, Kevin's styling with the hair is pretty much their idealistic dreamy prince image.

I hope Kevin rocks it on Friday!!!!

WTG Kevin. Really pleased with his skate -- and unlike some, I actually like his music for the short. Swinging with Kevin!

I love his music too. I think it's the best thing he's done.

Geez, I hope not. She's in her 40s and it was downright embarrassing and somewhat icky. OTOH, it would be a great story to tell!

I'm proud of him that he fought for it. 5th place ain't too shabby.

[geoskate]

No kidding that it isn't too shabby, considering he was 12th at worlds last time. That's a huge leap upward, and he wasn't even at his absolute best. Congratulations to him!
