I think he'll stick to his planned FS layout more or less since he's not practicing 4Lo or 4S. The only possible change might be to upgrade the 3F to 4F if he's trailing after the SP.
 
Interesting, he didn't do one butterfly jump in his ChSq and then another one directly after that as a spin entry, he only did the latter... it's probably a smart choice, because it shortens the ChSq and gives him some more time to do the jumps in the second half (which he very obviously needs), and I had actually noticed in SV and 'The Ice' that it was a bit repetitive to have two butterfly jumps so close to each other...

...then again, I miss those cool lunge-like steps he did between the two butterfly jumps and I hope his ChSq is not too short/empty now to receive positive GOE (not sure they will count the butterfly entry as part of both, the spin AND ChSq...?)
 
Well, that's very unforunate. At least find a stylist to give the hair some shape if he has to insist on keeping it long. It's plain ugly right now, and so sloppy - sorry to be harsh.

But I'm glad he's planning only 1 quad in the SP and 3 for the FS - maybe we'll finally get an actual program with choreography performed with intention out of him with this current layout. BUT it's still a big if that he'll stick to the layout, so I won't get my hopes up h.

His skin condition continues to worry me - those really do look like stress acne and they seem to have gotten worse since JO...
 
Well, then pray that he goes back to Vera cause she seems to be the only person in the world able to make him cut his hair.

Honestly, Vera doesn't even seem that bad compared to what he was sporting (hair and costume) at JO........and I HATED Vera.
 
Nathan pretty much training himself, i am sooo scared and nervous, i think vincent is going to upset him with the win
