:dance2: Dude, you are accusing people of getting annoyed by a pretentious comment while your comment is nevertheless the same. No one is comparing their technique, their skating skill here. I don't even utter a word about the so-called "artistry" some certain posters keep pestering people about it. My main issue is, whenever they see something somewhat soft, lyrical, piano style they use exactly these kind of words: "channeling great skater X" or "trying to become second great skater Y" or even "emoting the same way as skater C"... or "tribute to skater Z".Children stop your bickering or go back to your sandboxes. but seriously each skater is very talented it seems like to be fair Hanyu is the far better technician and Chan the far better skater/pcs.
I mean... come on, see skaters as WHO THEY ARE, not who you want to see. The way they talk about skater "channeling others" is So pretentious. They don't know the background, they don't understand the context, they don't feel it, they don't like it, they don't enjoy it... PERFECTLY OK. But to hint that "this performance is like copying this or that", it's obnoxious and disrespectful.
once again, what are you thinking? No one says who is more dimensional than who. LMAO I am saying you can't compare their styles because they are so much different, period.I really can't say Patrick is one dimensional compared to Hanyu. Chan skates well to many types of music and Hanyu likewise - like most skaters they kind of look similar in whatever they do.
