Omg Naumov!!!!!!😍😍😍😍
I love this guy! The spins, steps and passion is crazy good. He’s cute as hell. His axel technique is :scream:. I see all kinds of heartbreak coming up. Actually he was breaking my heart in this very free skate. When will he be boarding? He’s for sure at the station already!

(I must also say, though it’s kinda heartbreaking too, that Danny Salmon should maybe be left behind at the platform. He’s stopped attempting quads, and is doing 3z2t combos. When did he laat have a decent skate? Poor guy. Being kicked off #ttw for being too trainwrecky can’t be easy to handle.

Apparently he dislocated the shoulder again a couple of weeks ago so he toned down the content (not that I think he'd otherwise be rocking)

Edit: I missed #blackchihuahua until I saw Boss's comment. Amazing.

Watching late as usual.. Just finished SA ladies and men SP .. Some random thoughts:

Ladies:
Where did Audrey come from?? That smile at the end of the last jump was priceless...
Amber Glenn has my fave program
Gold... Uhmm I do admire her will to continue but this was like watching Suguri in her last 3 seasons.
Bell and Tennell: a let down compared to last year but deserving both at the top.

Men:
I dunno if it is because I havent watched skating in such long time but most of them felt like Do-Hard, Really Hard worthy today. Even Keegan.

Naumov & Malinin - Probably one of the worst parts of this botched season. Juniors movint to seniors too early but both delivered. Great potential
Samohin - Damn he keeps getting hotter and messier.
Bychenko - Nice to see a veteran still battling out there.
Zhou - Starry Night is becoming a warhorse and I like it.
Chen - Meehh

It makes no sense including them now, as unfortunately they are close to be done, but:
Kayne/O'Shea.
Oh boy. They have it all. The 'Carmen' FS is stunning. Her dress. Such good choreo. But so many elements are such a huge turnoff.
All power gone with the hair :drama:

They are definetly heartbreaking but honestly never saw that much potential. They tried too hard but you knew they were aiming too high which made them more heartbreaking in the end.

Trivia: Schaller has beaten all folks aside from Zandron by 20+ points :gallopin1

I can't find footage of that one nationals Swan Lake FS where he didn't get her up in the final lift. That was pure drama and :gallopin1 at its best :drama:

Yap. Just dancing in green velvet instead of burgundy.
Good to have you back.

The one when she covers her head in his chest and starts losing it as all hopes of medals and championship assignmets slip through their fingers after leading the SP? :(:(:(

That still haunts my dreams, so yeah heartbreaking indeed, but in the end still a middle of the road US pair team.

Exactly this one.
This was a tough cookie to swallow.
(gave me flashbacks of Aliona crying in Robin's chest on olympic (arena) podium 2014. No footage of that either :drama: )

Another stupid "havent catched up with skating" question. Is the Folflkore RD scratched and we're doomed to another year with awful Broadway/Hollywood Musical music? :(

I may have to skip Dance this season.
