JIN BOYANG! So nice to see him skating so well on home ice!

 

[Weathergal]

Two great skates from Grassl and Jin - keep it up guys!

 

[museksk8r]

I miss Han Yan.

 

[Jeanie19]

Boyang. Really good skate for the home crowd.

 

[kayley]

might not have been 100% clean, but he just skated the best I've seen in ages from him

 

[el henry]

Oh Boyang and in front of your home crowd too.

so happy for you.

Now Boyang is a premier example of someone who did not start out as a natural performer, so it has been a real pleasure to watch him grown into one. But that's the Chinese way isn't it: start with the tech and the artistry develops over the course of each skater's career.

Nicely done, Mr Jin. Nicely done.

JIN Boyang (CHN)

Nice, MUCH better than he did in the team event! And on noticeably tired legs too! Strong 4Lz to start, then a 4T+2T and fine 3A+1Lo+3S. He kept it together to nail another 4T, 3Lz+2T, 3A, and 3F with a step-out. I think his costume is better than the Bolero music which makes his two-foot skating and weaker edgework more noticeable. I think he did the best he could with the choreography for how exhausted he must be. A really great performance in his home country!

How nice to hear bolero, it is very accorded with the triumphal return that has just happened a few minutes ago at the Ladies event...

 

[Zora]

I had to mute Daniel Weiss. Praising Grassl and criticising Boyang Jin for lack of artistry, how is this not biased...

It could be worse. It could be Carmen.

Remember when there were FOUR Carmen programs in a men's FS at Worlds? The horror

Gives us the stats on that 4Lutz!

You know we want it!

 

[rollerblade]

I kinda like this spanish guitar version of Bolero. Please send help.

OMG, I am so happy for Jin Boyang! I've felt so bad for him, seeing him go from a quad leader to having issues with having clean skates. I felt he'd be under so much pressure this entire quad because this Olympics is in China. It feels amazing to see him skate so well!

KEVIN!

 

[moonvine]

And you get a SB! And you get a SB!

Gooooo Kevin!!!

 

[CellarDweller]

Ok Kevin!!! Have your Olympic moment!

I'll raise you 4 Phantoms...

I can't even describe how happy I'm for Boyang who delivered a great free program at his home Olympics
