2018 Olympic Figure Skating Team Event Day 1

[Seruleane]

I suspect Raf's strategy of constantly switching Nathan's jump isn't going to fare well for Nathan, but we'll see. You want the program to just feel *familiar* under pressure and Nathan never got a chance to get a familiar program. In September, it should've been decided, we're doing 4Lz+3T, 4F, 3A and just stuck with it.

yeah, I agree that a familiar layout would have been beneficial esp under pressure when you are not going to perform at 100%. I feel like any seasoned coach would understand this, so I have to question Raf's judgment. Oh well, I sure hope Nathan performs a lot better in the individual event, b/c the US is sure hyping him up over here.

 

[Mista Ekko]

Is there gonna be an ice resurface between groups two and three?

 

[FunsizedFlier]

Aw, I really enjoyed that and thought it was fun! I'm just glad the hometown reps have had good showings so far, because that must be a special kind of pressure, especially in such a small country.

 

[BabblingBrook]

Are the single events going to be held in the morning too?

 

[Anyasnake]

Did we at least get a reason why? :sarcasm:

I don't know :/

 

[3dsushi]

Why the IOC Not using the ISU detailed scores on the screen with all the GOE and skating elements with levels? It's such a downgrade.:disapp:

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Great

 

[Chemistry66]

Oooo right. Thank you; it was going to bug me until I knew!

Also Radionova is using some of it in her FS

 

[Yatagarasu]

OH MY GOD! Two of them? With a ten year age gap in between!?!? AHHHHHHHH!!!!

Does anyone want to adopt ME?

Just switch over to the dark side and we'll all have fun together

[Mrs. P]

Immediately after that conversation, she went into the washroom and came out ten minutes later, announcing that she clogged the toilet. Water, water, everywhere. How dare she, Kurt didn’t say it was time for a bathroom break!

So I had to watch the South Korean pair on my iPad while plunging the toilet and mopping the bathroom floor...

Your life is like a sitcom. Punchy little kid, new baby on the way, overflowing toilets.

 

[NoNameFace]

Seeing Korean pair doing Perez Prado, I thought:
- about divine EX from Daisuke
- how perfect would it be to see Wenjing and Cong skating to it
-about WeaPo and their fab SD in 2012 at Nice Worlds
- and about Shibutanis' twizzles

 

[MaiKatze]

His Zamboni made magic ice. Just noticed the name on there! :luv17:

It was that or SNU. Mukmuk drives a smooth one!

Go Israel, this is your chance!

 

[cheerknithanson]

All of them.

That was a super nice twist.
