I’m guessing this is Nathan’s actual costume—what do you think, folks?

It's just so bland. He doesn't stand out at all. I get that he wants something more subdued with no sparkles, but this just isn't it.

It’s probably something I would never notice. I expect Danny’s lovely smile blinds me to anything else.

And how crummy of TSL to point that out. Really?

I know. I'm still mad about it.

But I've gotten used to Danny's bare head, and I'm like you, I just love his smile so much that that's what I see.

What? (My stream died)

What stream are you using?

 

[TontoK]

So Nathan fell on 3A in run-thru. Corrected with a clean one later in same run-thru.

Looks like his jump layout will be 4Z, 3A, 4F-3T (bonus).

The first couple wakes me up. But that was an unfortunate music cut.

 

[moonvine]

What? (My stream died)

He fell that’s all. I’m just unused to seeing it. I had to reboot my Roku to get Peacock to behave.

He’s Nathan. He could skate in a pair of sweats and a raggedy t-shirt with holes and he’d stand out.

I think they make him stand out because they are different. And also there's that detail of, you know, his skating I think it's great how they tend to look like something he could leave the house in.

I adore it. My fave was the psychedelic shirt his mom made, although he did change it later in the season.

Don’t give him any ideas!

I actually liked both of his Rocketman shirts. Not my cup of tea, but they stood out

Anyone else looking forward to seeing Morozov/Bagin go head to head against Davis/Smolkin in front of international judges at some point?

LOVED that shirt. It looked like 1980 era airline upholstery. Coach, nor first class.

It was like he said, "Hey, you want color? Here's your color. You happy now?"

I think the more interesting question is, how will these teams do against international competitors of roughly equal talent Will we see “bonus” scoring out of deference to their famous, well-connected parents?

I'm pretty sure one of these teams is going to the Olympics and I wonder if the Federation's choice will be consistent with their international results (should they ever meet in competition).

As far as Nathan loose shirts go, I kinda like this one. I did not like the yellow cloud one for Rocketman (I called it Charlie Brown myself) Like moonvine I did like his mom's psychedelic top better!

 

[moonvine]

I actually love Madison’s purple dress.

To all those who may be reading here without access to video, and who were concerned about this—it looks like Olivia Smart has managed to secure an appointment with her colorist. I consider it my responsibility to all skating fans to report on this

Now it looks like she needs an appointment with her dress designer. Some mishap.

Oh yeah. A strap broke off during the rotational lift. So power. Wow.
