That should be the understatement of the year! To be honest, I could not enjoy at all Yuna's Adios, as soon as Adelina's score of 149.95 flashed on the screen. It was made clear that they were going to give Gold to Adelina no matter what. From that point on, I just had to watch powerlessly Yuna becoming a pawn in a game of politiking, putting up a brave face and perform in front of a hostile crowds, alone in the face of a massive setup. It was just watching a person alone against the world. Heartbreaking really. Maybe I will be able to enjoy her program one day when I finally manage to 'de-traumatize' myself from the nightmare that unfolded over these two days.
I was able to enjoy her programs very soon afterwards. I guess I steeled myself against the results and was expecting them, so as I disappointed as I was I could still watch her magnificent performances and appreciate them. It helps that she actually went clean in both programs. The only other LP's I recorded were Carolina's and Mao's. Just beautiful skates from these three ladies, all a moment of personal triumph in their own way.
