I may be a little bit in love with the dramatic pause in front of the audience.
I wonder if that's going to stay in the program though, there are a lot of empty parts in between, the step sequence obviously needs work. WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY FINE. We don't even know how often he skated to this. It's the risk of showing the new stuff at the end of MAY. The season has just ended.
I feel like there's a very good base there to work on for the rest of the off-season. And he has about two weeks now to work on it before Kobe.
The base is there. He's going to the US now, and will probably focus working on his jumps, specifically the quads. Maybe he will skate to something else in Kobe/Niigata. Who knows.
I trust your expertise demarinis! One great thing is how his programs grow so much during a year and no program is the same. There is always something new to see when Shoma skates. What was the old saying? You cannot win a competition with the SP, but you sure can lose it, or something? I can already hear the cheers to the last spin. That's my favourite part already, hehe.
Well usually I do not make predictions because in this sport anything can happen but from what I just viewed the program really has a lot of potential and it will
grow throughout the season.
If I was a betting woman my "speculation" prediction would be that the gold medal at the Olympics will be a fight between Shoma and Yuzu. It is obvious that
Shoma's team is not looking for a place on the podium for Shoma they are looking at Gold! Of course this is only my opinion.
There are so many talented Men skating this upcoming Season and even though I have my favorites, I do wish them all well! It is going to be
one heck of a ride for us figure skating fans!
I obviously want that Gold for Shoma but I think I would be happy for him if he gets on the podium. Daisuke 'only' has a bronze, but still that bronze meant so much. My gut tells me not to underestimate Nathan Chen first of all. Who knows....I will celebrate Shoma's Gold, Silver or Bronze as long as he's happy with his performance and doesn't cry (only happy tears, please)
Shobae's interview translated!
I just knew he was concentrating on the choreography. It's nerve wracking doing a new program.
Ok Is "Shobae" a new name for Shoma (I like it) or was it a typo!
I love Winter already! :hap93: I know it’s far from finished but still. There is a lot of potential in this program. I was a little surprised that the music during the final spin wasn’t used in step sequence because it usually is that way. But when I think about it this is better. It’s more unique way of using the music. And like everyone’s being saying, Shoma will work on it. I think we are going to see a much better version in the first competition in the fall.
I love the parts in the step sequence where he slows down his movements and then in the latter half the tempo goes up. And of course there’s uncle Dai head roll which I love. The final spin is already very good, nice speed! And his smile at the end. He was probably just relieved though that he made it through! :yes2: But will the cantilever pop up during the season?
This season… Fingers crossed for Shoma on the podium again. I have faith in him.
