2024 Four Continents Men's Free Skate

[readernick]

Hopefully, it will be an amazing group. I think Yuma will run away with this he'll get huge GOE and PCS. (which he completely deserves). Personally, I'm just hoping my baby, serious baby Shun has a great FS. He seems to be struggling a bit in warmup. Actually, I like all these skaters (well except for Sota who makes me want to go to sleep, sorry fans) and I hope they all skate well.

I know about all of this. And to me, that just happens. They didn't even compete together. They were in the first stages.

That's too bad but the shock is perhaps a symptom of a lack of mutual communication and understanding, which wouldn't surprise me.

Max is a top pairs partner. Nobody can dispute that. This is his career. This is his life. He has worked very hard for so many years to get where he was. If he felt, at the beginning of a new partnership that it may not work out, and some other opportunity showed up, well good for him doing what he needed to do.

They were not married you know.

I loved Meagan and Eric. What Eric did to Meagan was way worse imho... yet, I cheered for him and Vanessa. It's their lives and businesses.

To me it was a matter of manners, I wouldn't have faulted him had he done things in the right order, i.e. tell Kyueun that things weren't working out, split with her amicably, and then try out with another partner. If you think it wasn't a big deal, this is where we differ. And I could not cheer for James/Radford either

Looking forward to Yumas 4flip

Perhaps I see it more as career partners and you see it more as relationships.
BTW. I think it's perfectly fine to be upset for a while... but after several years, for something that didn't even happen... You deserve inner peace my friend

Boyang Jia-you!

 

[readernick]

Doing great, Boyang! Chris's pronunciation of his name is cracking me up... where did he get "Yin"? It's "Jin" as the the Chinese character which means "Gold."

Anyway, keep going Boyang.

Stop the presses! Boyang's Quad Lutz is back!

Put that jump in a frame and stick it in a museum!

I get you're trying to assimilate in Canada, Boyang, but Ed Sheeran? No. Just no.

 

[elektra blue]

Boyang found new life at TCC, so good to have him back

Now we know how Boyang travels to Canada... he just has to do a 4Lz and he gets launched all the way to Toronto! Welcome back Boyang, what a great skate for him!

I think it works for him. He really appears connected to this sappy music in a way I have never seen from his previous performances. I think Boyang may be a secret lover of sappy romance movies.

 

[icewhite]

his skating is really improved

Wait wouldn't it have to be the Bube to properly assimilate?

Stuffie-lanche! I love it!

Although I guess the next guy up might not

Who said there would never be plushie waves like there were in yuzu's times ? LOL..

 

[Dr. Jenn]

Wow - Great skate by Boyang! He has always been an excellent jumper, but the other aspects of his skating are now catching up. I just wish that he didn't telegraph his jumps so much.

 

[YuBluByMe]

The best competition Jin’s had in a while. That 4Lz is still a beauty.

 

[moonvine]

A stuffie rain!! How I have missed stuffie rains!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[FlossieH]

I think there are maybe more soft toys thrown there than even pooh bears for Hanyu!

 

[Paulipau]

Beautiful quad Lutz but very labored steps. No flow and slow skating.
