https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJzTJHFg8Ik Another very unique program from Shae-Lynn. Between Nathan and Shoma this year, Shae-lynn has already demonstrated her range!

Alysa' FS is a pain to get through, and i'm not just talking about the botched jumps. I'm so not a fan of where her development is headed. Kudos to her for trying these jumps, but they really come across overly ambitious for the level where the rest of her skating is at. The music is also a...

Oh, I guess it was just a total coincidence that the USFS hyped Chen but not Aaron. And I’m sure that Max was the one great inspiration for Nathan to start going for multiple quads. Only Nathan saw what none in the USFS could see in Max, and decided to follow in his footsteps.

Perhaps not completely equal per se, but definitely also at fault as opposed to the innocent, unknowing position that many here are quickly and willing to assign her? And what do you consider a “professional” versus a non-professional? Can an Olympic and world champion who gives shows around...

Legally no. But she agreed to use the choreography. So unless Daniil lied to her about this being his original work, she’s responsible for the blame (whatever it is) to the same extent that her choreographer is.

I honestly don’t really understand this whole argument that it’s all the choreographer’s fault and it has nothing to do with poor innocent Alina. Why? Is it because she’s only 17? But she’s 17 not 7. I’m pretty sure I was well aware of the concept of plagiarism by 17.

I bet Daniil must have just watched the music video on his own and mimicked the entire opening to show the moves to his muse. :saint:

I don’t know how skatable Brahms’s music in general is, but it’s so unexplored in figure skating that I would LOVE to see someone skate to his music just to see what they are able do with it. Perhaps try some of his pieces that have more of a obvious melody line, like Violin Sonanata No 3 (2nd...

Honestly, Satoko looked like a second-tier skater who just join Eteri’s team in that performance. What even is she trying to do? The program is a mess and looks very mailed in by Richaud.

Everyone’s taste different, but SOI in the US (which is the only real show/tour there is) seems to cater to just that one taste. It’s not like we have any variety to choose from. I wish there was a show like Ice Legends 2016 (one can only dream), or at least shows with a more international...

Oh yeah, blame that warm ice, and poor edge jumper. Chen is just so lucky that he is good at lutzes. Classic fanyu comment, just like the thousands we see all over twitter. :D

I'm still in the perpetual state of being pissed that there's no further demand for ATS to supply proof in support of their accusations. Why isn't the USFS doing anything? Why isn't Mariah/Mariah's representative doing anything? If truly nothing happened as ATS claimed, why is no one even...

Thank you! TBH, they are not making a whole lot of sense, but I love it nonetheless. :rofl:

I never doubted that his artistic expression could surpass....a lot of people. One only has to watch some of his junior programs. I firmly believe that if he didn't have to focus so much on the quads, he would be one of the most artistic skaters skating today. His Chopin program from 2015 is...

So is ATS ever going to back up their accusations that Mariah bullied and was being racist toward Eunsoo? Those are very substantial claims. Are we expected to just let this one quietly slip and eventually forget??
