Patrick Chan

I would love to see Patrick skate to a completely different piece of music (but nothing like MTK) for his SP. He has reused so many programs that at least in his final season I want to see a new, never before skated program. He'll likely keep the FS anyways.

oh he said at wtt that he is done with journey....
 
EH? I missed that, whoops. :o:

But then, what's he thinking of doing for his FS? Oh no, don't tell me he'll keep Blackbird for his SP?!

i think it's two new programs... but i keep pushing for esqualo and ACI ;) just because i m selfish but i guess we all want esqualo :)

he seems to have lost so much weight though since the first esqualo... will his costume still fit? :laugh2:
 
all in good humour my friends ;) all in good humour.... Nothing to spark debate here :)

To the point : it is a huge trend with skaters. I saw many of them at ACI with their own boxes.

Then Patrick should buy one for sure! :agree:


This is adorable! I want to pet it. :luv17:

Haha, I noticed that the "moose" looks more like a teddy bear with moose antlers. :laugh:


ok... so let's assume (we have no information but wishes though) that esqualo is becoming a competitive program

do you see it as a SP or a LP?

WHY?

I always thought that it would make a good SP because it's such a spirited program. An LP would draw it out too long.



as long as he keeps the same costume for esqualo :)

Yes, it's such a beautiful costume! And if he's too thin I'm sure there's a tailor somewhere who can custom fit it to his present measurements. ;)
 
Awwwww.......from Yan Han

There is the English version on Han's page.

My version: He is the one who makes me hold on to my understanding of figure skating. Figure skating is not just a technical sport. There are things that are not perceptible through the scores. Even though the way of the world is now different, figure skating is figure skating. My idol, let's go forth together.

He picked pictures of Patrick's deep edges and beautiful body expressions. Gorgeous showcases of his and our idol.

baby hanee has been one of my favourites for a long time.... last year, at 4CC he did his "i love patrick chan" outing. he was truly exciting about taking pictures with his idol and hugging him and so on. Patrick played along with it...I thought it was super cute and then it hit me that it was way more than that: Han modeled his skating on Patrick's... If you look at how he glides so smoothly on the ice, it's clear he was inspired by PChiddy.... So the idol thing here is so cook because if the younger skaters start recognizing how great Patrick is, and train to aspire to such quality, we will be in for a treat for years to come. We all love Patrick for his unique skating skills. I'd love to be able to see 4-5 Patrick-like skaters in the top ten at worlds... it would be so beautiful to watch.

Han has admired Patrick and considered him his idol for years. I think it's courageous of him to hold on to his ideal of figure skating and thank Patrick for the inspiration in this age of quad mania and skating skills and performance being put aside as secondary or dispensable. Yes, Han has modeled after Patrick and became the first Chinese Man noted for his skating skills since his Junior years. I do enjoy and appreciate Han's skating very much because of his skills. He, too, skates and jumps big.
