Agreed, it only makes me more worried for Beijing. It feels like more of a mental issue because his practice quad lutzes are gorgeous. But tonight, he was really tentative when he stepped out and didn't skate with speed. It was a similar issue in his Nationals FS.That doesn’t sound very confident.....
It would make me sad if he never skated his FS to its full potential. I really enjoyed the 1st virtual competition FS because it was fast and flowy (I know I'm in the minority). But when he has skated it in live competitions he has been slower and tentative.
