Thanks for the links everyone. It looks like such a fun show :)

I don't know if it has been posted before, but this Absolute Skating FB page has some nice pictures.

Also this site has collected tweets and instagrams from people who were actually there. There are 7 pages as of now, but the pages will probably increase after tonight's show.
This site contains tweets and instagrams from the press conference and group pictures from the skaters themselves, but probably nothing you haven't seen yet.

Thanks to everyone for their updates on Kissing You and also to Pamina for the documentary. Daisuke is such a kind soul. His skating always takes my breath away and he certainly didn't disappoint with his latest efforts. No one can move like him nor can they reach out and touch the audience the way he does.

Wonderful! What struck me was how natural Kissing You looked. The choreography didn't seem as sophisticated as his competition programs (or some other exhibitions), but it looks like he was skating right from the heart. I love how it started slow, but really built.

Love his hair, too. :love: What a rockstar.

His jumps look lovely and effortless. But yeah, I hope he doesn't overdo it, if his knees are still giving him trouble.

I am fangirling Dai's hair and Mao so hard right now. Thank you all for the photos and clips. Sounds like the skaters have so much fun skating and enjoying in this show. I wanna travel to this country so much. :love:

Agreed. Definitely emotionally charged. It's not my favorite ex of his but I love watching him skate it nonetheless.

Thank you for the updates as well.

I just found a separate site for last night's show here. Goes up to page 3 as of now.

Dai's hair is getting so much love :)

Lovely indeed. Nice to see Daisuke and Stephane, men's skating's supreme artists, side-by-side and looking equally fab in black v-necked tees. Ditto with the two skating goddesses, Mao and Carolina, who look delightfully relaxed.


Edit: They have arrived in Astana.

The vibe is like college students off for the summer break. LoL at Daisuke flashing the peace sign as Yuzuru is wont to do (is this a male TJ thing?). Mao looks so fresh-faced like a schoolgirl, and Mirai and Dennis have exactly the same quizzical look and slight smile on their faces. Could I ship them? ;)

Thanks for the updates ionap, and I look forward to seeing posts on their performances in Astana.

It's more of a Japanese thing, Japanese people often do the peace sign (or V sign) when taking pics :biggrin:

He tried a 3S in practice today and fell. He should really stop doing this.

Very short video from the press conference in Astana.

I've just checked in here to say: "Thanks a lot everyone for all your updates on Daisuke :)", though I don't have much time to visit the forum. Life's got so hard for me these days, but the following photo in particular has made my day! :
Also, another pic from Stephane's instagram

Adding Johnny and Jeff, the final group of Men at 2007 Tokyo Worlds is still the very best 6 for me. :rock: These fabulous boys simply ROCKED the whole arena that night! :yes:

These people are having a blast :laugh: That dinner looks like a lot of fun.

I can't stop laughing at Dai dancing though :rofl: He's all over the place. Pretty sure that's Turkish music they're dancing to, I can recognize the actual song.
