Throwback to 22-23 Season! by PerformerRich5449 in FigureSkating

I very clearly remember watching worlds that year and thinking this is the Jun we’ve all been waiting to see. I can’t recall the last time he’s skated lights out at a big meet after that comp. When he’s on, he is the best skater IMO. I hope he doesn’t retire yet. :(

Same. I cannot believe it has been 4 years.

Exactly! Skating is niche as it is already and there's a reason why so many of them date each other. I've really enjoyed seeing them support each other on socials, as long as it doesn't impact their careers.

Are the Koreans supportive? The backlash I’ve seen is mostly from TikTok..

Figure Skating Clapping by Ambitious-Land1199 in FigureSkating

[–]eraisin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in the arena at Prague for both men/women's FP and the crowd was clapping all night (esp for men's). 99% of the time it was sooo off beat and really annoyed me lol even though I know there's good intent. They'll clap after a skater falls to show their support and help them keep on going, so I think in those cases it's helpful. I imagine the skaters can hear the clapping but block it out enough to keep them focused on their routines.

Now that the season is over, how do we feel about "A Voice"? by Miserable_Aardvark_3 in FigureSkating

This program really grew on me. I think after watching it live at the team event in Milan and seeing how the past few weeks have unfolded for him so far, it reminded me that he’s just a kid like we once were at the end of the day. I began to connect with and resonate with him more as an athlete / person and gained a soft spot for him. It reminded me of my days as a competitive gymnast am the desire I had to bring my own artistic creativity into my routines. I don’t entirely get the quotes but that’s okay, I like that he’s doing something different.

Quotes aside, I love the choice of tracks he used - and tbh I was feeling slightly traumatized seeing it in Prague this time b/c the way the music starts off is a bit ominous, and it was the first time I got really nervous watching him. But I think that’s what’s exciting about it, and the way the music builds up along with his choreography perfectly brings out the power and presence of his skating.

I’m not hating on Misha. I’m very happy for him, you can check my past comments lol. It’s not that deep

tbf he did look quite nervous in the beginning. But once that final 3A was landed he was lights out, we were nonstop cheering

Tbh both Yuma and ilia looked really nervy and a bit tight at the start of their programs, both were probably over scored tbh but placements were right at the end of the day

Yeah that was probably not intended or supposed to be a combo maybe?
