All That Skate Spring 2012 (May 4-6)

[Bluebonnet]

I haven't had a chance to watch all the performances yet. So what was the verdict? Who has YuNa skated with?

[lowtherlore]

^^
Nobody. In case you haven't watched it thru, it was Caro who got lifted in honor of her first appearance in Yu-Na's shows and her well earned WC title.

...
Musically.. I don't believe it is about the music choices but what you do with it when it counts. There are values if someone can fully realise a really well done / interesting '3 blind mice' masterfully vs basturdising a so called 'worthy' classical music some skaters regularly get away with.
...

I agree. I don't quite get these complaints about over-used music. It's not what you skate to, as much as HOW you do it. Using an analogy, there are zillions of the Renaissance or the late Renaissance paintings on the sufferings of Jesus, but I can still find my favorite in Piero della Francesca's rendition of the flagellation, for its unique and profound view on both the theme and the form.

Speaking of my favorite skater, I'd love to see her and DW collaborate on, over-used or not, a Rachmaninoff, or a Ravel. I think she would rock it.

Very odd....Norton told me there was a virus imbedded in that pic and it caught it...."Malicious attack"

[skateluvr]

oh geez...anyway, yuna is so young and beautiful...will she take up movies in Korea? It seems inevitable she becomes a Sonja Henie in Asia!

Very strange indeed. The url that appears in quotes in post 81 (lower case letters) is not identical to the one originally posted in post 80 (capital letters). I don't know how this is possible using the quote feature, but anyway, if you click on the original it seems to be OK, whereas the second one is now returning a 403 error.

Great picture! Here are some other amazing flyers.

I think we need a new thread, "The 'too good to be kept in the Patrick's fan thread' thread."

[cristina]

That should be also here (and why not in Patrick's fan thread LOL)
