2021 Skate America: Men's Free Skate

What the hell just happened?

 

[kmw227]

Well, it wasn't perfect, but it was still pretty darn good! Hopefully he won't dwell on it too much, it's still early Nathan!

 

[yelyoh]

Is this competition rust or being a bit spooked at the Olympic season? In other words, redux.

 

[readernick]

I have really started enjoying Nathan's StepSeqs. However, it isn't normal to see Nathan struggle with anything. It's almost like he is human.

That exorcist Lacrimosa segment is something.

 

[Supernovaimplosion]

4 quads is still very good for most mortals. I actually liked the techno lacrimosa more than I thought I would. I loved his facial expressions; he really commited to it lol

 

[Lamente Ariane]

I'm hoping he'll be able to perform it more next week (both in general and because I'll be there)

 

[Makkachin]

I hope Raf is giving him a nice pep talk

 

[moonvine]

Uh well.

 

[noeleyle]

I kinda like Nathan's music choice, not an usual one but suits him pretty well. I like it when he rocks.
What's with the men and rushy music tho?

 

[s_parks]

I don't love these music cuts tbh

 

[4everchan]

That exorcist Lacrimosa segment is something.

something i'd rather have never witnessed

[Ichatdelune]

That costume, the mini ponytail, and Attack on Titan??????????????????????/

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Wait, am I the only one who likes the Lacrimosa?

 

[anonymoose_au]

I know this piece from its use in the old Inspector Morse TV series. Amazing how these things come in handy

I thought I recognised it! There's also the Jonathan Creek music skaters use sometimes.

Go Jimmy!!!

Wait, am I the only one who likes the Lacrimosa?

I like it.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

OH MY GOSH I love this music! I've never seen AOT but this piece is absolutely fantastic!
