They're picking out gifts for him for when he's in Japan.

That Japanese fan send Nathan the Macaroon it seems.

She made a keychain replica of the macarons he received.

I’m sure Nathan will get so, so many amazing gifts when he’s in Japan this summer!

Wondering when we will know his GP assignments? Was looking at Skate America schedule

May be June? Last year ISU annouced at May, but it was Sooner than usual.
But Nathan definitely attend Skate America.

Thanks Hollymolly for the info

Looks like Zach/Madison and Vincent were featured in 4CC promos so far - I don’t know if there are others as well that weren’t shown. Seems that these three will be at 4CC for sure.

Went to Anaheim SOI tonight, Nathan was outstanding! Saw him last year but I feel like he grew so much as a skater in a year... He now has a commanding presence on the ice and has become a great performer. I love it.

They had little cards promoting 4CCs with Nathan's pic on it (only skater pictured). I hope he can go, I'd love to see him there

 

[hhh]

I just got home a lil after 1:00am and need to drive up north in the morning for Mother’s Day, so will share my SOI night tomorrow.

All in all, he brought down the house tonight, home court advantage haha Per skaters the audience was the loudest of the tour with Nathan earning the special honor, the few elders next to us were enjoying the screaming and energy, as he came out for his two solo, they commented ah there we go, of course it’s just Nathan.
He along with the rest of the SOI cast were sooooo friendly and down to earth, and he looks way handsome in person. Ok I need to finish packing and get some zzz. Hope this hasn’t bore most of you since I’m no writer...

ps. you can really run into just about anyone, I saw Alice, team Raf, Arden Cho to Cheryl Burke in different hallways

Off the top of my head only Boyang and maybe Vincent?

Doesn't he get first pick by virtue of top ranking? Which means he'll be able to choose SkAm and France so as not to miss classes?

He can say where he prefer to go (becsue he is top rnking) , but it only means he has chance to appeal, not necessarily adopted.
However, he can’t go NHK,RC this season, so there is high possibility to go IDF.

Nathan's BFTE from last night, watching Nathan grow as an artist this Summer, all those improvs at every leg, I am in tears:sad21: So Good:luv17:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dK8bOANUQ3c

the timing of Fangirl screaming is also on point (at my fav camel spin) Nathan fans are the best

here is Nemesis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS_CimOXaIE

and the camel spin again "stole my heart", and Nathan Boi seems about to loose balance again at that same running 3 into final spin like in Detroit. but he saved it nicely. I chuckled a bit when I saw this

this YT account also has many other performances from last night SOI.
here is Vincent's Take on Me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzNzXZGKzCA have to say compare to Nathan, Vincent still got a long way to go in terms of body movement etc.

Nathan and Ash Shape of You (focus is not 100% on Nathan)

Seems Nathan became a little natural at those bar scenes and taking shots

 

[oatmella]

purplecat and hhh - thanks for sharing and glad you enjoyed the show last night! hhh - happy for you that you got to meet Nathan and everyone else

And if Nathan’s photo is being used to promote 4CC - that means he has to be there, right ... ha.

aww Nathan is looking more natural in our favorite Shape of You and hope I will be able to see him well in this ice dance! I thought Vince’s Take On Me was cute - he looks taller now - and cantilever !!

The show will be starting in a little over 8 hrs here

This might have been their best performance yet. It would have been cool if they had thrown in a sbs jump to make the choreo a little more interesting.

yyyskate - idk if you have seen this already - but Eunsoo looking super cute in pink going to the show yesterday:

Was this a fan gift ! - or some kind of Apple sponsorship as I noticed he was wearing airpods recently as well ... or just from Nike?

And just for fun, the final bows. For some reason Vincent was moved away from Karen to between Bradie and Charlie. :sad4:
