Start orders. Is it based on the short program or is there a draw.
59th ISU Congress: Watch and Discuss
- Thread starter gsk8
- Start date
Philippe never failed to make me smile and at times, laugh out loud. Such a showman.
It's based on the short program, it's going back to when it was reverse order.
I was so excited about Boyang's quad lutz just a few years ago... and I couldn't care less about quad lutzes anymore... What a demanding fan have I turned into
However, give me a great program with interesting choreo, and then, I go back and rewatch it... I have never gone back to rewatch Boyang's quad lutzes.
Lol, it's nice that you can rewatch!! At some point, no one in the US is going to be able to rewatch anything post-2022 at all on YouTube. D:

That's good, it was so awkward during Euros with Lukas skating after Adam in FS.

Nah. Everybody thought Malinin's performance was great. None of these changes will compromise the big jumpers looking to maximize their tech potential. Conversely, the changes will not, by themselves, produce programs that are more artistic.Plus, if every jumping pass is even more critical than before, this means the skater needs to focus even more on delivering each jumping pass cleanly and with flawless technique. Which Malinin appropriately did to ensure a clean skate during the Worlds under insane stress. But that immediately carried the tidal wave of criticisms and nose-holding that this is (duh!) not artistic and people wailed for lower PCS.
Right before the screen went off the guy who wanted to have his say earlier in the day came back for one minute and got up on his metaphorical soapbox and addressed the whole room as if they were idiots. "Do you realize we're going from 7 to 6? Do you?" Then, if you can believe it, he tried to force a raising of cards again just for his own benefit. Seriously, what the heck? The vote already happened, pal. I realize you don't like the outcome but when do people realize procedure exists for a reason. When I see this type of rubbish, it pisses me off.

It was armenian delegate, funny coincidence, Ilia's manager.
Are you serious? Why does this not surprise me.
I thought the stream ended and turned it off before he spoke, I should've kept watching
. I thought he'd speak after lunch.

Some other good news: the ISU mentioned in a press conference that for this season, streaming will largely stay the same, but in future seasons they may move all events (including Challengers, GPs, Championships, etc.) onto their website with what I presume will be a single subscription to watch all skating (they say it's too early to discuss cost). It depends a lot on broadcast renewal rights, but this would prevent videos from being removed due to copyright and prevent us from having to pay for 75 million different services to watch the Challenger series. We would also get professional streaming services on all events with this (I love you IceChallenge man but the Post-It notes don't cut it). They are also upgrading the judging technology this season (I presume this means they will no longer be using CD players and 2005 Dell computers)

Ouch, come on. Unnecessary. Yuma and Adam and all your other favorite skaters would be sad. But I do always wonder if people in the US will wonder what happened to skating in non-Olympic years since the Olympic Channel will post things from the Olympics. Like there's not even an opportunity to get into it for ANY skater. I see so many other Olympic sports getting more YouTube and online coverage, and skating has gone backward in that respect. OK, getting off-topic though.
And ugh, Ari Zakarian is actually there?! Jesus...

when you say Armenian delegate, does that mean that Ari Z. is a delegate? Sheesh.
And he wanted to re-argue the vote? This cements my high opinion of him (not)
