I still don't believe Miki and Nikolai are an item. Their body language is almost always cold. I would say just as cold as 90% of skater/coach relationships.
All snark aside, Miki strikes me as emotionally very vulnerable, and I fear she has an eating disorder, she is way too thin. What happens when Morozov gets tired of her?
It was awkward seeing NM and Miki in that position only because I know people will make comments. If they have feelings for each other I rather they not show the judging world. I like Miki and she is a grown woman who can sleep with whoever she likes although I would wish for Miki someone better than NM.
Most awkward hug ever between Miki & Nikolai. It's clear they seem conflicted about how much affection they should really are comfortable showing in the kiss and cry. Poor Miki... she seems so sweet and has to deal with him. lol
Morozov and Miki should just throw caution to the wind and smooch in front of everyone. I agree with anonymous...that relationship is the only thing that interests me about her. I loves me a good scandal.
Ando - The program is the perfect vehicle for her. It accentuates her strengths and disguises her weaknesses. Marozov worked very well here. The jumps were near perfect. I really enjoyed the suspense of having the program back-loaded. That feat was amazing in itself. Very convincing win!
Mao - Yes! The Phoenix has rerisen from the ashes of the GP. I am so proud of her. She is an absolutely lovely skater who can measure up to any artistic champion of the past. Her jumps are about 80% and that makes this even more exceptional. Lovely program. I hate the muzak but that's my personal problem. She has a Salchow, though it's only a double now, she will make it better very soon. The promise of this program is coming to fruition. Her flutz is still there but it's closer to being a real lutz than ever. Good girl! I love my Mao-das! The pressure of this even makes this an even bigger personal victory than Miki's actual win.
How is she closer to a real lutz? It's pretty cut and dry-- inside edge is a flutz. She literally has to start over and force herself to stay on the outside edge. It's not the end of the world for her to be flutzing, so I'm glad she's at least keeping it in her program.
Poor Suzuki! It seems to me she is always forced by JSF & Jap people to sacrifice herself to make Mao go to the World. No wonder Suzuki's mom (Morozov as well) complained about Japan's absurd support for Mao. I'm not impressed by Mao at all. Since I found her focus only medal or beat other skater(s), I could've not found any beauty in her, not to mention her performances. Hope Suzuki stand on the podium at 4cc.
Congrats to all the medalists. So happy for Mao! And I love Risa's program.
ReplyDeleteDon't discount Morozov getting fucked by Miki.. There are plenty of couples where "things" are used and Morozov may like it..
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is our business that she fucks her coach. I personally think that is the only interesting thing about her.
ReplyDeleteMao is gorgeous!!!

Mao looked great except for one thing--those hideous over-the-boot tights!

ReplyDeleteno, there is something going on between them, especially this year. He cried after her skate, that hug in the kiss and cry wasn't a coach/skater hug.
ReplyDeleteKanako's costume is 1/2 Mao's lavender, 1/2 Miki's black - only realized that when I saw a picture of the 3 medal winners standing together.
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe that I enjoyed more Ando's performance than Mao's!!
ReplyDeleteFumie's heart just isn't in it anymore, it seems like. Wow, though; just to keep training and going at it is pretty impressive.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell is Fumie wearing?!

ReplyDeleteMiki is a sexy woman with nice bodacious breasts.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Morozov can't keep his hands off of her!
