She gave Nathan a flower crown, and was told Nathan was wearing it backstage while laughing. Who had the pictures of Nathan wearing a flower crown?? Please share those with us

From Romain’s IGS, they also went to watch Ice Dance. He was clapping hard there.

Nathan looks so handsome in all those podium pictures, and the sight of him with Jason couldn’t be more heartmelting :luv17:

I think Nathan is the same length as it was in CoR last year, when people wanted him to trim. Personally I thought it was great because it worked well with Nemesis and shows off his curls dramatically. I hope he keeps it. But we all know Vera will have something to say...q

 

[oatmella]

I don’t think the curls are going anywhere - doubt Vera will make him cut his hair again ... at least until the next OG

Nathan seems to prefer longer hair - and the movement/bounce of his curls look really nice as he skates :luv17:

I am still kind of sad that Nathan didn’t put on that precious smile skating caravan this time, and I wonder why. The smile gives life to the program more than anything. It was so dependably there in the first fancam video, in sun valley, in japan, in SA...

 

[RainMaker]

wow 26 ex program, this is going be like 5 hour long

I think he was little nervous at starting. I also think smile gives life to program. It will be back at GPF, I guess

I think he was probably concerned about his boot issues and his jumps not feeling right (as he said in the K&C) to really be able to perform up to his standard. Just one of those days.

But glad for him. Told ya guys not to worry, he always pulls through. He’s going through an adjustment period so things will be a bit wobbly than we’re used to this season and possibly next but he’s on the right track. I hope @shine was more pleased with his performance today, much better attention to detail than yesterday.

I hope Nathan can find some time to work with Marie-France on LOA choreo between now and their departure. This seems to be a good opportunity.

Finally got a chance to rewatch the program and I don’t get why he keeps getting edge calls on his flip? He’s using inside edge so like ?????

Also I’m gonna have to fight someone with those PCS scores, they’re lowballing him & it’s annoying

No Good EX. Looks like Nathan practiced it this time. But no more hip thrusts. I wonder if he just doesn't feel comfortable doing that move.

BTW, here's Romain's EX. Notable because he attempts both 3A and 4T, although the 4T was popped. Nathan must feel inferior.

ETA: I'm hearing that Romain's EX was co-choreographed by Romain and Nathan.
