It's so hard to watch skaters in the K&C after a rough skate with falls :no: Idk how they can stay out there and keep going, but I admire them. I'd be too embarrassed.

Nam time!

Weiss just said Nam trains with Yuzuru..and YUNA KIM. Ok then...

 

[Doggygirl]

Nam is adoreable. If his first spin went any slower it would be going in reverse. What a showman!!

 

[Meoima]

Nam did really well, the program is good choice for him. BUT why do I feel it's something copy paste from some of Javi's fun program??? :think:

Nam was enjoyable.

 

[charmblade]

Great Senior Grand Prix debut for Nam!

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

Yay Nam! That was really fun to watch.

 

[TMC]

NAM

 

[Scovies]

Way to go, Nam! I loved that program (and Nina Simone :thumbsup, and it seemed the crowd did, too.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Maybe it's because I don't have sound but Nam looks noticeably slower than everyone else.

I agree. Think that's why I didn't care for it...

 

[Maria Victoria]

Great GP debut by Nam

Even with no sound, I'm incredibly bored by Nam. I want to like him, but I can't yet. He has that look that I see lately in juniors, they crouch into their jumps, spins, etc. I can't.

I love when they show Brian in the replay

ITA. That's it too, lack of between moves speed.

 

[Skategmt]

Love Nam! What a great debut! I liked him more than Artur!

 

[TMC]

I love when they show Brian in the replay

Me too! Especially if they catch him jumping when his skater jumps

 

[Meoima]

Yes, he is. At least his jumps look better than before.

But... I am sorry to say this, but Nam's jumps are so small. His 3-3 barely left the ice. Now it's Adian!!

I think Nam should have been slightly ahead of Artur... he performed the heck out of that performance and was clean. Artur was much faster though, and Nam's speed/jump height is something that will come with time. Although he's great at projecting and engaging with the audience.
