Any word on how Skate Detroit went? His tweet was not encouraging.
He has skated amazingly well at nationals several times and been rewarded. However, when he makes mistakes, his still amazing skating skills and musical interpretation are often underscored, in my opinion.Didn't he win by a big margin at least at Nationals, more than once? Seems the judges greatly appreciated him in the past, but not so much this year, for whatever reason.

I love your giraffe smilie. Does it have any particular meaning? Is it sort of a virtual hug?
True story, wrong threadJeremy turns 30 next month and if it hasn't happened for him now on the World stage it never will. Time to move on.
Yes, and I also hope his choreography for Ashley Cain kicks a**. She is so good when she's on, and the instagram that one of them posted recently looked great.I hope he meets his goals and slays at Nationals.
I hope he gets many show opportunities.

Yeah. That is a bit of a concern for me because he will need more than one style to succeed as a choreographer. However, it really seems to suit Ashley. Can't wait to see it.It's amazing choreography and "very Jeremy-like".

That s$&t was horrible...
Source thread & article link in GSD: IN series: Skaters share first-time on-ice success storiesJeremy Abbott: Quad
I vividly remember landing the quad salchow the first time. It was my first year senior. It was at the Broadmoor Open, and there was a jumping competition. The rules were a little different then than they are now; we had three jumping passes with six total jumps. First, I did a triple-triple. Then you could do a double or triple axel, and then a triple or a quad. I went out and did a big double sal (on his first quad attempt). I had just started landing quads at the time. You only had two minutes to do all of this, and the whistle blew before I could try the quad again. Tom [Zakrajsek] talked the ref into letting me try another one, and I skated around the rink and nailed the quad salchow, and everyone in the stands was going crazy. I was really excited. I think they actually counted it, even though it was after the whistle.
It's exhilarating, the feeling you get when you land something like that. You want to produce. You can feel it in the air and before you even land, and it's just a great feeling.

Last time I checked, this was an uber forum and for positive feedback on said skater. If you don't like it, don't post here.
Last time I checked you weren't an admin and none of us who are admins have the time to police fan threads. And we're certainly not starting now.
Last time I checked it was known that fan threads are for just that, FANS of said skater. It is a safe place to talk with like minded fans.
there is no board rule about only fans of a skater being able to post in a certain thread.
Check again. You cannot decide who does and does not post in any thread on FSU. It's nice when the ubers keep to themselves and saves us admins a lot of headaches, but there is no board rule about only fans of a skater being able to post in a certain thread. If you don't like that, I suggest you find another skating message board to frequent.

Well, that's fine and all, but you need to share this fact with the other uber threads as well.
Sorry, I don't take orders from you.
I wasn't ordering you to do anything. I was just mentioning that the other uber fans get really nasty if someone says the slightest thing about their favorite. I really wish you would stop taking me out of context.
