We are delighted to have a peaceful lurker joining us, Fenena. We not only share our adoration for Patrick here, we also get to know each other. You never know, despite the vast seas and distance, we Patrick fans may meet each other some day.Fenena said:Thank you so much for the words of warm welcome.
Yes, I love Patrick. He has been the apple of my eye!
I was literally afraid of coming to this whole forum because of the whole bitching and complaining of haters. Now I'm so happy to find this thread. Thank you all
Gee what sort of party is that, Emdee? Chasing Canada geese?Emdee said:However had to chase the Canada geese a few times and raccoons have marked their territory on my deck!
Aww Emdee, do it do it do it! Your procrastination is slowly killing me.Thinking of going to Thornhill next month will see a few people but no PC.
^^^ Is this a distraction tactic, SF?Skatefiguring said:So the first thing you do is press me? Say hello to Fenena! And lakeside. Not sure about l'etoile - she looks like an old friend - say hello to her too. We've got new company.
Now show and tell us about your party.
Ohmmmm Emdee. All skaters will do their best be they Hanyu, Dai, Han Yan, Jeremy, Weir, Gashinki, Plushenko etc. Patrick just need to concentrate on stretching himself and not think about what others will do. And that's what he has been doing all these years - do what he had done in practice. We already know quads and 3A are a must for the world stage and there are more than a handful getting these two jumps.I was never worried about Hanyu but now with all these quads plus 3A he is beginning to frighten me. Of course he will need nerves of steel and I dont go for all those bursting into tears.
Is this what you saw on the other board? I get that some people don’t like Patrick’s artistry etc., but rewriting history and twisting records… Ohmmmmmm.Hey I can be as good at starting rumour as anybody. If the haterz can insist on rewriting history and twisting records I certainly am entitled to tell future history and records.
You know you would only get 80% of points if you do jumps ending with 3a. Some people think this rule is stupid, but in this case it means Hanyu can’t do those jumps at competitions. Even though 4t-3a and 4s-3a are phenomenal jumps, he can’t do them at competions because he would only get 80% of the points for doing them. That kid loves to do hard jumps, but he can only do them at shows.Yes Quads and 3As are a must but Hanyu is doing a Quad followed by a 3A - Cannot recall the point values but it will be phenomenal.
Patty will have to do 2 Quads plus 2 3As to add up.
I gotta ask, does Patrick have any ice shows to skate any sooner?
Yes, he does, he will attend Yuna Kim's All that skate summer ice show in Korea at Aug 24-26.

That's still a month away!
Thanks SF for the explanation.
Glad I dont have to hold my breath any more shall go back to saying ohmmmmmmmmmmm
On another note - do I buy RIM now that PW owns so much? Lost my shirt on it already but if he is averaging....
Then the two of us (Prem and me) can say ohmmmmmm together!
It seems a long wait isn't it, l'etoile. But Korean fans are great. They upload vids almost immediately so I am patiently waiting for the ice show in August too.l'etoile said:That's still a month away!
Absolutely! :thumbsup:Breathe deeply and don't hold your breath! Patrick is King because there ain't nobody to beat him in three scoring criteria: TES, PCS, and Competitiveness. He never gives up any part of his program no matter what happens. He never loses more than a fraction of a second for any mistake. He skates the highest level program with no room for error but he won't back down from such standard. No one else in the World is doing that.
So risk assessment is your hobby? Good news for Patrick. A fan with an analytical mind is always useful.Market volatility is my friend but your enemy. Step back for a few weeks if you don't have nerves like Patrick's.
You’re welcome.Thanks lakeside I thought I was reading wrong. But if the rule changes....
:yes:Lakeside is a true blue fan standing up for PC against the haterz!
Yes, I’m new here, but I’m glad to join the Patrick Chan Fan Fest.You are obviously so new here and missed all the times I compiled and showed data to quiet the myth spreaders, only temporarily at best.
