Believe this was the show from 2010 where he appeared with Evan Lysacek, Brian Boitano, Sasha Cohen, and Ryan Bradley.

Is it this Saturday that Nathan skates at Sun Valley? I’m wondering if we’ll see his new free skate.

Yes. But no one knows what he will perform except Nathan :yes:

pray for the FS debut.

I know a few Japanese fans are going to Sun Valley so we should have video.

No, he got a new one when he visited Montreal last month.

I wonder if Eyes on Nathan will be there. Excited to see his new FS - hopefully!

 

[1111bm]

Yeah, hoping that some of the attending fans will share some video footage with the rest of us, too.
I have to say, I also love watching his practice footage from SV so, so much! I don't know why, if it's the daylight or what, but his skating just looks extra cool and uninhibited when he's there... just so casual and easy!

 

[Mamamiia]

I have a feeling we will see more videos this year!

 

[sheetz]

Cross your fingers that the live webcam will still be working during the show. From what I was able to ascertain watching the last couple of weeks is that the guest skater performs about 30min and 60min into the show. Wasn't able to catch practices so have no clue about that.

According to Jack Gallagher, Raf seems to have indicated during their podcast that Nathan will leave school this year to concentrate on preparing for 2022? https://mobile.twitter.com/sportsjapan/status/1160164363182858240

There's some doubt expressed in the statement. But I'd wait till we hear the interview before drawing any conclusions because Gallagher's Japanese isn't that great.

Thanks, Mamamiia. Can’t wait!

As for the news regarding Nathan leaving school this year, I am wondering if that might really mean after this coming semester or after this year. That would seem more in line with what we’ve heard before. I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

I assume you mean this school year, which ends in May next year.

Raf may mean this school year as well to Gallagher. If he said to prepare for the Worlds, I would tend to believe it’s this year. But the Olympics?

Yes, I meant the school year ending next May. I think that’s sort of been the plan all along, though I read somewhere (a while back) that Raf had been trying to convince Nathan to leave after the semester ending in December.

Looks like it’s just Raf’s wish that Nathan would postpone school starting this year...no news there. Gallagher’s tweets really tend to sensationalize things.
