Remember, he was skating to classical, Sinatra, Nina Simone, Stevie Wonder, etc. Never pop. As much as it's a repeat, it's a brave risk to do this in competition, and the choreography will obviously have to change a lot to accommodate all the required elements (I think the show version had one triple). Plus, non-skating fans will watch and pass it along. So we'll have to see how it ends up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-16520833064767734402012-08-26T07:07:05.011-07:002012-08-26T07:07:05.011-07:00Last day of ATSS and Yuna does a perfectly clean R...Last day of ATSS and Yuna does a perfectly clean Roxanne:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qebK6CdGBco<br /><br />A clean 3Lutz. :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-55848507342593080582012-08-25T23:32:17.018-07:002012-08-25T23:32:17.018-07:00lol People are already fighting, but the season ha...lol People are already fighting, but the season hasn't even officially started yet.

I've never really cared for her exhibition programs (with the exception of 'Bulletproof' and 'Meditation de Thais'), but the fact that she threw a 3Lz into the mix was nice; perhaps it's extra practice for her competitive programs. <br /><br />I would have to disagree, Anonymous 2:09PM, that all the Japanese skaters' (I'm assuming you're talking about female skaters) performances were "lifeless". Mao's "Scheherazade" performances were quite spirited in general and Akiko seems to project to the audience well, as questionable as her jumps may be.<br /><br />I also agree with Anonymous 2:17PM that Ekaterina Gordeeva's "Giselle" was absolutely wonderful. The opening combination spin of that program was exquisite.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-56270030548208647752012-08-25T15:23:50.010-07:002012-08-25T15:23:50.010-07:00Yu-na attempting a 3Lutz in an iceshow and actuall...Yu-na attempting a 3Lutz in an iceshow and actually making it.

Considering that she skipped a whole season and it is still months away from her first comeback competition, she is heading to a right direction.<br /><br />As Yuna mentioned a few days ago, her jump may need a bit of tweak to get back to her competitive form, but still a 3Lz is a 3Lz, which was as rarely seen during the last season as Mao Asada standing on the podium. Yuna's performance here with a 3 flip added still can kick any Japanese skaters' asses with lifeless, horrible performances of the last season out into the space.<br /><br />Welcome back, Yuna.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-26586842945991125782012-08-25T12:44:59.890-07:002012-08-25T12:44:59.890-07:00Yuna...wow... slow, wobbly.
