2021 Skate America: Men's Free Skate

[Makkachin]

Nathan let's do this thing!

 

[Makkachin]

Also, Makkachin, Shun's program is choreod by Kenji Miyamoto, who provided all the choreo and blade/skating sounds for YOI
Oh goodness Nathan

No way, that's awesome haha I love that!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Nathan... wants... popcorn? What? When did this happen?

 

[moonvine]

Oh my god Nathan.

 

[anonymoose_au]

I wonder if Sasha T is the audience... You know she'd want to be.

These music choices are rather grim...

 

[chasingneverland]

*gasps in Spanish*

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

This central section is my favorite part of his program, I adore the vocals and melody

 

[Skatingcat]

I'm watching this program from behind my fingers. C'mon Nathan!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Nathan's opened the door for Shoma or Vincent, they could beat him with just one mistake and 5 quads

 

[anonymoose_au]

Damn how many quads was this? 4?!

Oooo I do like a good choreo sequence! Go Nathan!

 

[anonymoose_au]

He doesn't even look puffed?!!!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Aagh, the ending switch between the two different pieces of music is cut poorly
Nate looks so frustrated, that's not good

 

[Kathy1]

My heart goes out to NBC for the money they will need to spend changing the marketing for Nashville 2022 from Nathanals to Vincenationals.

 

[Beckaboomer]

Nathan out here in his pajamas as usual..

Whoops! Don’t hand the gold to Vincent, Nate! What’s with all the pops? Quite uncharacteristic my good sir!

That 3A was nicely timed to the music.

As for the program itself…. I’m not feeling it yet. Probably because he understandably seemed pretty nervous during most of it. I’d like to see how it grows.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Well the good news is, I think I like the program!

 

[Seven Sisters]

Not to offend 4everchan or other classical music fans here but—I know this piece from its use in the old Inspector Morse TV series, where it was always used to great effect. Amazing how these things come in handy

Nathan as he leaves the ice: Well, this is like the worst day ever

 

[Ichatdelune]

I like the program until the second music cut with the dubstep, but hmm interesting (sorting hat voice)

 

[Makkachin]

Nathan has seemed stressed this whole time but could be just me projecting lol. Somewhat uncharacteristically popping jumps and didn't look super into it

 

[YuBluByMe]

Chen attempted six quads and popped two of them. It was still a good performance. Only he could have pulled off that last bit.

 

[4everchan]

ok... i love nathan... i love mozart... i am not okay with 3 things

1) putting together the A major concerto + the Requiem
2) skating to a Requiem during olympics... especially lacrimosa....
3) that weirdo techno bit at the end...

now about the skating : so many different doubles
