Ten noted that in the world today do not have Yagudin and Plushenko


Four Continents champion Kazakhstani Denis Ten on the eve of the start of World Figure Skating Championships in Shanghai suggested that complicate their free program.

- It will be a great event - quoted Tena goldenskate.com. - It is interesting to look at the figure skating competition of the two major sports continents, especially in competition with Yuzuru Hanyu. Maybe I'll do three quads, two of them are of different types. Now the obvious leaders in figure skating is not, as it was in the days of Alexei Yagudin and Evgeny Plushenko, where all the fighting only for third place. Now, the best results will reach the one who will show up to. My goal - to finish the season strong and pure skating.
 
I like that he specifically complimented Sergei...and none for Kovtun, lol. (Not that I dislike him that much, but it's no secret who I prefer...anyway, I hope they both secure 3 spots for next year.)

Godfather?! Oh, thank you, Plushy, organizers, and skating gods!

I have a weird feeling about that "attempted quad." Like, if he lands it, the men's event will go well, and if he doesn't something crazy will go down. :hopelessness: Or is it the opposite?

we will see... we will see...:shocked:
 
Well, it's nearly 2am for me but I took a nap, and I'm ready for this. :dance: I don't think anything bad will happen...hand down maybe, but I'm sure he woudn't go for it if he wasn't prepared.
 
It's nearly 5 a.m. for me. I tried to sleep, but it wouldn't come. After Worlds is over (and my favourites win :p), I'll take care of my insomnia. :laugh:

I don't mean something bad happens to him. If he falls, oh well, he's landed quite a few clean quads this past year and has nothing to be embarrassed about. I mean something bad could happen with the men's event. I don't trust that ice after those SDs...

So something like Groundhog's Day...if he sees his shadow/doesn't land the quad...? :laugh2: Honestly, I'm trying to prepare myself for the worst case scenario with the men...Yuzuru in particular...:hopelessness: But it can't be any worse than CoC. Can it???

Shanghai's ice rink has some bad aura honestly. :hopelessness: I hope Plushy will take it easy.
 
Well all was explained about the 1 minute thing - an interesting Opening Ceremony.

I'm not actually sure if he did a quad or not :think: because I suck at counting when I'm enjoying the program, but his footwork was great! :D Which I was super happy to see.

Although as an Australian it's only 8:46pm here, but my internet isn't very good so I'm not watching the rest of it.

But goooo Plushy! :dance:
 
Annnd he decided, "Screw it, the ice is horrible, I'm doing a triple!" :laugh: So, I guess no positive or negative vibes sent to the men's competition. They stand or fall on their own. :p

The footwork going from one end of the rink to the other was fun. No meandering, no slowing down to cram in extra turns...

Even during the end of the ceremonies, as there is a faraway shot of the performers... my eye immediately goes to Plushy. He's not doing anything special, but he just does everything bigger, more dramatic than everyone else.

Oh boo, I should have kept watching a missed that...

I did like the effect they used for when he first came out like a red carpet on the ice! :laugh: Not sure if they did that for everyone, just goes to show how much attention I pay to stuff!

They used it for everyone during the segment (Chen Lu, D/W, and S/Z).
 
He seemed to get the most applause of anyone...I guess it make sense with all the times he's been to China, and I don't think they are especially big on ice dancing, & they've probably seen enough of Lu Chen & Shen/Zhao that the novelty has worn off, so to speak.

I swear if I ever see that ultra-see-through costume again, though...

I did notice that! And was very happy indeed. :yay:

And while I do enjoy the ultra see-through, it is getting old, I was hoping for the Godfather costume (I guess it doesn't fit these days), a little bit of colour works wonders. May Plushy pick up our vibes on that too!
