    U.S. Men 2021-22 season news & updates

    Right now, I’d prefer Tatiana Malinina on the women’s Olympic team than Ilia Malinin on the Mens.

    Zhou's placements at Worlds were 14th and 25th not 18th. When he placed 14th, he wasn't that far off from your celebrated Max Aaron's 11th place finish, about 6.26 points away.

    The team is set. Throw tomatoes at me, but the choice is not controversial. Vincent blew it in the LP here but Jason did not skate that well either and Jason often underperforms. Skate Canada, for example. At these championships, Vincent deserved TES that was about 25 points lower but Jason...

    The Dance Hall 9: Bring the Bling or No Beijing 2021-2022

    Dai/Kana had the best hip hop RD of the season with the Whackin’ P/C next. Shame they didn’t bring it at Japanese Nationals. It was set up for them to take it.

    Right, if Nathan and Vincent don’t make group 1 by Nationals, most likely nobody else did either.

    That’s probably why they keep her on.

    Skate America 2021 Returns to Las Vegas

    I think you’re totally right. The thing was just an excuse to start more cost saving and price gouging measures. It’s like the airport now.

    Skate America 2021 Returns to Las Vegas

    Yep! There’s a sort of authentic real smokey Vegas to feel to it. More Golden Nugget than “adult” corporate Disney World style night clubs disguising themselves as entertainment centers that exists on the Strip. Both are garish and tacky but in different ways.

    Skate America 2021 Returns to Las Vegas

    I didn’t think the Orleans was so bad. It is what it is, and a lot of hotels have adopted the cleaning room upon request only since the Demic. Granted I’ve only spent most of my time at the Orleans sleeping and going elsewhere for fun in-between the skating. The ticket stuff at the box office...

    That’s the sense I got too. Vincent may be considered a “low quality” skater to many and I know he’s not a natural performer, an innate artist, or has the body movements to be considered a dancer but you don’t have any doubt he deeply cares about his programs and music. He’s completely committed...

    Pairs Discussion Thread 2021-22

    The Americans were great in the arena, Tarasova/Morosov out-classed everyone, while Miura/Kihara had a performance that won over the audience and resulted in a spontaneous standing ovation.

    Miura/Kihara we’re electric and incredibly smooth in person. There’s a reason they received an impromptu standing ovation.

    U.S. Men 2021-22 season news & updates

    I don’t after watching them live. I do think Nathan Chen needs to rethink that short program and he doesn’t really have the command over the ice I’d expect for a multi-time world champion. His skating has a very rushed quality like he’s chasing something all of the time and he does the same “hip...

    Skate America 2021 Returns to Las Vegas

    I wonder what would happen if I don’t have a wristband. I have the tickets I paid for to watch the competition today and tomorrow.

    Skate America 2021 Returns to Las Vegas

    Were we supposed to keep our plastic wristband on from the practices too? Nobody told me we had to keep it for the entire competition so I took it off yesterday.
