Nathan Chen

[shine]

Yes but that was several seasons ago and he was never worked with again and for good reason, at this point in Nathan's career, he would ruin his style and movement. Keep hm away.:roll5:

I don't think I've enjoyed one single program from Morozov since he choreographed for Yagudin. No, not even Cohen's.

 

[Ic3Rabbit]

Now I'm curious. Does Morozov have a bad history other than his women problem?

He has that issue and then also ruins singles skaters.

long term figure skating fans usually don't like his choreo/program.

Well, yeah and elite skaters as well.

 

[hhh]

Alex K’s artistry is just decent to me and I didn’t see him doing quads, I think Camden P could be a possible challenger for National title, so please Nathan Chen can you please rest your body because with Yale and next season aside from all the events/activities your competitors are resting themselves. Sigh guess it comes with the territory

And I am not sure if he really likes the weather, he would be not able to ride bike in February as he does in socal.

HE WILL NOT. The weather in Eastern Coast just kills me, and that's why I decide to leave after graduation. Nathan will test it - let's see.

Vincent quit figure skating for almost 2 years ...

I do not like the word "quit" in connection with Vincent.

Vincent's career was disrupted by injury. IMO, "quit" could be misinterpreted as if he lost interest in skating -- but it was not a matter of him losing interest.

---

I do hope that extended discussion of Vincent will move over to his own thread.

It would be more respectful both to Vincent and to Nathan.

I’m not sure Nathan liked that saint-Saens program either ... I remember him saying the music was boring

Well, that's bad taste on his part then That's one of the best orchestral pieces ever written, but of course Morozov couldn't do it justice. Jeremy Abbott's 2010 program to this piece was glorious.

Oh yes, yes it was. Glorious Jeremy programs.


ETA: Pasquale C choreography.

Thanks everyone for keeping me updated on Morozov Looks like his best years/programs were with TT and Yagudin. And went downhill from there.

 

[classicalfan]

That is what I am hoping for. I have issues with every Raf's interviews myself, but I think he does care about Nathan, and Nathan still needs his help with Jump. Coping with Yale is already going to be a challenge, working with a new coach is not going to be easy in the beginning, so I don't really want to see dramatic changes in the coaching/training.

Was Raf trying to help with Nathan's posture here?

Wow thanks for this video! Raf is so great here; he was definitely trying to help with Nathan's posture!

I want to see Nathan work on choreography with Christopher Dean, I feel like his choreography and odd movement styles could really shine with Nathan!

That's what I have been thinking about these days. Every time I logged in, I saw vincent vincent vincent and I was lost. We are talking about rivals - that's fine, but Vincent is not the one to consider right now.

Ok I’ve seen that one so I can say YAAAS it was as for Morozov, none of his really spoke to me haha I guess it’s a good thing.

 

[classicalfan]

Haha, Same here.

Ray Chen the violinist, tweeted a day ago, "Toronto Y U SO COLD?! ", I immediately think of Nathan, do you know what you got yourself into?

Hahaha AND it will be worse in NEW HAVEN!!!

 

[Ic3Rabbit]

Come on now, be nice to the East Coast, it's not that bad.

I've lived and trained all over the world, so either I am used to it, or it just doesn't faze me that much. :rofl2:

 

[shine]

Toronto is colder than New Haven ?

Probably. But New Haven sounds 20 times more boring. Hope Nathan doesn't regret this location...

 

[colton12314]

holy crap, 2 hours 15 pages!!!

 

[SkatingMusic]

Let's not forget Nathan is a skater. He lives on the ice. It's only New Haven. It's not like he is moving to the North Pole

New Haven is actually beautiful and there are many things to do nearby campus and easily can make day trips to NYC, etc.
