2018 US Championships Sr Men SP

Shoma's music. I see the skater for the first time but really get impressed by his showmanship. Alexander Johnson reminds me of Christopher Bowman.



I said those exact words to myself....I had a Skate America 1991 flashback...
 
My only complaint is that Alexander’s costume is all wrong for this music: we need to see more arms! No turtleneck! Take us to the club and show us a good time with those moves!

Adam Rippon is somewhere backstage watching and thinking “Oh honey, nice try...” :laugh2:

LOL Backstage Beeyutchfest!
 
Look...I don't think you have any idea how hard it is to be an elite athlete at that young age. If he doesn't believe in himself, who will. He needs that self confidence to get through the lonely times he spends away from his friends training and traveling.

I think your remark should be directed to Procrastinator who offered the criticism. I was defending Alexei and compared him to a young Yagudin full of youthful confidence.

But it's more tribal music than club. :slink:

I brought my mom to nationals and she knows literally nothing about figure skating, but she kept leaning over to say the exact same thing about his outfit [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

That's who it was meant for, not you. I'm sorry, I think I replied to the wrong person.
