Boyang Jin to Train under Brian Orser

[narcissa]

I call Brian getting another men's gold in Beijing

Apparently the national team's translator would be there with him in Toronto. Hopefully, though, he would learn some English.✌

I hope he is better than that lady translator at worlds 2017 ..

Maybe it's Misha Ge.

 

[iorii]

Maybe it's Misha Ge.

I'm in with this idea too
I love the thing at World 2017 so much where Misha translated for Boyang and Yuzuru + Shoma probably counting how many languages Misha speaks.

Good for Boyang! I think Yuzuru is comfortable with this arrangement, Orser says he always asks his students first before bringing in a new skater. But yeah Orser will probably lose some hair.

I'm waiting for details about this arrangement now. All we know is that it's permanent, but that's it.

This off season got no chill.

I'm agog at all this movement towards TCC. To think that Med was just the tip of the iceberg.

I mean... Have you seen the interview between Boyang and Misha on CNTV? Highly recommend

Also does this mean that Boyang and Evgenia are arriving at TCC at the same time? Will there be some kind of orientation? An induction test?

Same. Like the initial reports said his Chinese coach was going with him. Is that still the case, and how long will he stay? Certainly not permanently as well... Is it just a hand-off to help Boyang get settled in?

I'm still assuming that Orser won't be his main coach. Let's see.

Yeah, imagine like Autumn Classic last group of skaters with only Brian standing at the rink as a coach :rofl2: Hanyu, Orzel, Cha, Brown, Jin, Gogolev...

Sounds good to me, Brian is saving the planet with all those Co2 cut emissions from other coaches air milege.

We might as well just do the competition Canada as well? Save the trees ISU!!

 

[Warwick360]

Oh MY GAWD!!!!!

Right now Bryan feels/looks like a black hole, draining everything except for his students' light.......Eteri on the other hand......:dev2:

He's not a black hole. He's a honeypot. And all the skaters are flying to him as honeybees. Except one Pooh.

 

[Farnaz]

cough cough

Not to bash any skater or to offend anyone, it's just my personal opinion that one successful jump out of 10, 20 attempts does not mean the best technique.

 

[Izabela]

Whatever arrangement he might have with Orser, this is the best news this season for me. Boyang has the potential to be a complete skater, and TCC is the best place for him to polish/refine parts of his skate and improve some of his weaknesses. It would also work well for him mentally since the Olympics will be held on his home country. Orser not only has his own history of shouldering such pressure, but he also coached skaters who also had to deal with that. So yeah, this is really great news.

 

[risingtrot]

How does this work with Boyang's previous and very subtle coach? I am sure he has contributed a lot to Boyang's growth. Will the Chinese Fed ask him to still overlook Boyang's skating while abroad or this is really goodbye?

I am happy for Boyang though but students parting ways with their coach some probably like family to them is always sad.

 

[yude]

Does Chinese federation make official announcement about coaching change in general? It would be good if we had one since Jason's move has already been reported in Japanese media and I think they are waiting for the announcement by Boyang's side.
