I am saving money for next competition
Thanks for the report, let`s talk!
Looking forward for the update on Dai.
I wonder why do they forbid taking vids/pics of a show which ain't even broadcasted? Like, people won't go to the next shows if they see pics online?
Bolshoi on Ice show in Seoul
This May guest skaters:
5/1-5/6 Tuktamisheva & Gachinski
5/10-5/12 and 5/17-5/19 Voronov
5/24-5/26 Yagudin
It's some video from Stars on Ice (not Japan tour). Have no idea when the show took place: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mLh4y_cuRM
:think: Agree it doesn't make much sense but that is how it works here. On PIW the broadcast rights belong to Tokai TV, which is a local TV of Chubu. They might broadcast (and only locally, i.e. not in all Japan) the PIW show in Nagoya(Chubu) that will be held later in May with a completely different cast (no Dai, no Mao, no Tatsuki). For now- only news clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uu6TaviQ0FUI wonder why do they forbid taking vids/pics of a show which ain't even broadcasted?
Hehe. No, they are PIW staffers who mostly keep the railing securied. They are not real security, i.e. no guns and stuff. I called them "knights" because they do act very protective to Mao and can't hide their warm smiles when they look at her. Cute! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8_j1oB55g4&t=1m00sWho are the "Security Knights?" A boy band? Or are these the security people who try to keep the fans from jumping over the railing to mob their favorite skater?

Next time I will go to PIW shows in May 3th and 4th, with Dai and Mura (no Mao). Then updates will follow.

We are patiently waiting for some review from you, Let's talk! ^^)/
let's talk said:Tatsuki again went practically clean in both shows. In the morning all jump passes were perfect: 3F, 3A, 3S, 3L from a spiral. In the afternoon he had a little deep sit on 3A but not that much. The prog is so beautiful that I was almost sure that Steph somehow was involved. Guess what. When I asked Tatsuki who choreographed this new EX, he said him (!), himself. Alone with no one's help. I was like and had to re-ask. And he said yes, that's all him. Maybe Daisuke should ask Tatsuki to choreo his new progs?
thank you
How great to hear there is a new, young Japanese choreographer
I hope videos will be on youtube!
PIW are too good to skate locally. Have no idea why they don't tour internationally.
Daisuke showed up in the dark in the costume that I immediately identified as Moonlight Sonata. But when the music started, the audience, who (myself including) probably didn't expect him skating that SP, exploded into ovation. He didn't fail us and skated awfully well. Did a 3F, a gorgeous 3A and 3L, steps and spins were die for, especially the final footwork, the one that I fell in love with the moment I saw it for the first time. In a finale Dai did a really good combo 3F-3Loop (!), the one that I haven't seen from him for a while. I told him that his MS is a masterpiece and pointed out that so many people love him, and he smiled. So did the happy I. In the afternoon show he skated Tango, spins and steps were as great as usual, as well as 3F and 3L. But he singled his 3A, so did 1A instead. You know how upset he feels when he fails smth., especially in shows. In a finale he went for trixel again but did 2A only, then tried another one almost immediately, rotated 3A but fell terribly painfully. I hope he is okay and wasn't hurt. Dai still looks a little skinny but healthier than in London or even WTT. Still I think that that mistake on axel in the afternoon show might be the result of general tiredness. I ranted again to him that his tango is so passionate and how he can do that I wonder. He made a trickily enigmatical smile but didn't tell his brand secret.
Anyway, tomorrow I am going to both shows too! Then the updates will follow.
