what a difference. I am very impressed

Congratulations to Boyang for his silver medal at 4CC!

 

[Emerald66]

Yes congrats to him! It was my personal favorite performance of the night. This surely has to give him a confidence boost leading to world's.

 

[Vash01]

I hope he skates well at worlds. When I saw him in 2016, he has no artistry and his quads were flawed, except for the 4Lz. The very next year he was a different skater, with much improved artistry. I really liked his skate in the 2018 Olympics. I have missed seeing him this season.

Congratulations to Boyang Jin for his 4CC medal!!! I really love both of this programs this year and hoping for a terrific outing at World Championships!! He has come so far artistically - love him!

 

[livetoskate]

Yeah, Boyang did great! His technique is excellent and even though he didn't land his quad lutz cleanly, the height and distance is amazing even while watching on a computer! I was a little worried after reading the sort of sad article about how he didn't go to Canada to train with Brian Orser, but his competitive fire is still going strong.

I wish he had come as well, but it is such a huge change and leaving family so I totally understand. That have such a good setup there for every facet..Maybe he will at some point.

He is always much stronger in the 2nd half of the season. I think he is the biggest threat to the podium favorites - Hanyu, Chen, Uno, and he is the strongest of the dark horses.

And well-positioned to hit his peak in 2022 at home. Same with S/H IMO, providing they stay injury-free. S/H have yet to create a signature program, and I hope they are saving that for 2022.

Is that a quad Axel?? He rotates so fast I seriously can't tell.

No. It's a triple.

No. It's a triple.

Okay, thanks. Still, a 2 3axel sequence is pretty cool!

Boyang is working hard in the gym! (This made me chuckle.)

Boyang is growing artistically, IMO. His movements are still a bit hyper or staccato, for lack of a better word.

But I'm sure he's going to continue to grow in anticipation of the 2022 Olympics.

Not.a.fan

I want him to bring back his cool hair

 

[firstflight]

I teared up a bit watching his short, which is not something I would have ever expected to happen. Wow.

Jin is now on my 2019 list for most improved skater; he makes me smile esp., when he is healthy and confident...

 

[skateboy]

In case anyone is wondering if Boyang's works on dance training...

I've always had a soft spot for Boing-boing. And as I suggested above, he is certainly growing artistically. The dance training is showing aleady. IMO.

 

[Vash01]

I just want to see him get all his jumps back and skate clean. He skated great in the 2018 Olympics but just missed the podium. He has the artistry now. He just needs to land his jumps.

Congratulations to Boyang on his first GP gold medal! Here's his winning FS from Cup of China:

And, maybe I'm in the minority, but I like his somewhat crazy hairstyle!

Wonderful. I feel like watching it over and over again, and it's not being performed in competition. Boyang will stop at nothing in order to contend for Gold at upcoming worlds and Beijing 2020. Good for him, and I sure do wish him the best of luck.

Again, wonderful. And Boyang can wear his hair however he likes, IMO. A few years ago, he was primarily a skater with jumping talent and a quirky personality. He's growing up. And this program is further evidence that he will stop at nothing in aspiring to be a contender for Gold in Beijing.

 

[Vash01]

Very happy for Boyang for winning COC.

 

[DreamSkates]

I like the shirt he wears for his long program.
