Skate Canada 2024 Mens FS PBP - I'm Knit a Vampire

[skateboy]

Oh dear, this music may have to get the mute treatment

It is absolutely the WORST music for a skating program and I'll bet the composer would agree.

(And I say this as a fan of the work. Just not for skating.)

How dare he?

Ilia goes to George Mason University. His parents do a good job letting him live a normal life apart from the skating.

well shoot. I wish I'd known that while my mom was still working there.

I'm ready for Jason to switch to solo dance and become the first big star of that discipline.

Oh, so we get to go through all the over that again? Goody.

Perhaps people could simply attempt to get over it in advance

 

[Wyliefan]

If only.

Excerpt:

Re his state in the season and reconciling what fans are accustomed to seeing from him later in the season: On average, this is what I do on a training day and where I'm at. So that was, you know, similar to last year and the year before, but no one saw it. It wasn't something that I was putting out in competition. And so by the time I was competing, I was very much more polished, which made me a lot more confident. And so this is an experience where I'm a little bit more vulnerable. I'm putting myself out there, you know, and obviously I always want to go out there and skate my best. So it's hard having these moments. But I think the biggest thing that Tracy and I are going to have to go back and discuss is what is the takeaway, the learning and kind of putting that, in a lot of ways, that ego aside, and being like, Okay, I'm going to go through the muckiness, and you guys aren't going to see the muckiness as it goes.
