Yuzuru takes the ice, the camera pans to the, almost Russian in stateliness, Oligarch of figure skating, Brian Orser, then his prize pupil puts on a raw powerful dominant performance with ease to an iconic piece from Russian skating.
I am proud of Liza, and I am glad to see figure skating behave like a sport at NHK.
Chill multiple times over from Hanyu's Otonal. I never thought I would feel that from skating again as unknowing admiration evolved to examining protocols and watching slow motion video to check rotations.
Maria was the first. Then there was Johnny. I wanted to hate it, but now Hanyu skated great to Otonal too :)
icky = POTO, yucky = Carmen
Gosh! The podium hug between Liza and Evgenia was so warm :)
I am glad Evgenia came back, and I am glad Liza won :D
Evegnia picked the 3F with a twisted right foot rather than straight. If was fluke error Brian diagnosed in the K&C. It is the type of error Uncle Dick talked about in the 90s.
Y'all are crazy if you don't recognize how special Liza's final SP spin is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hte6_5kZPm8&feature=youtu.be&t=170
I love having my Liza back!
At the end of SA 2018, I am adding Samodurova to the skater I follow.
I liked watching Starr do a camel spin catchfoot then bring it down into a sit position during her combo spin. It is one of the few noteworthy spins I have seen in years.
I was just reminded that Tuktamysheva used overused music in the SP on the way to winning worlds.
I hope the Russian Ladies World Team is Zagitova, Medvedeva, and Tuktamysheva, and I would not mind a Russian sweep :D
I am thinking Zagitova, even with the dreadful music choices will probably rightfully win Worlds. I still hope Tuktamysheva out jumps her :D
Darn! I guess I am going to have to watch Zagitova on mute the whole season, if at all. Team Eteri's obvious tactics are creepy.
I want to see Tuktamysheva and Nagasu battle it out at Worlds, both with ratified 3A.
I just tried to get my free leg in a good layback position. I think it involves my hip internally stabbing my spleen when on one leg or my liver when on the other.
Meh ... The World Figure Skating Consolation Event.
I am going for Gulag Chic.
Goodbye, Neverland!
Guilty Pleasure, don't you know work starts this week!
Goodbye, Neverland!
Say something, I'm giving up on you ... And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you ... And anywhere, I would have followed you
"I, Tonya" + Ross Miner + Mark Mitchell = USFSA F*(&#)
Competitive Audition. The "body of work" was to save a superior skater like Nathan. The "body of work" wasn't to save the best of mediocre.

Watching Torville and Dean on the 2017 Royal Variety Performance demonstrating how to take a bow like figure skaters :D -
