Spins are one of Camdenโs main weaknesses, so heโs already got a leg up! Alas itโs always the beautiful skaters that canโt jump consistentlyโฆ

Yeah, Iโd say the demographic of people willing to take these surveys skews older. Personally I never trust itโs not spam.
Iโve noticed heโs been getting ~40% approval for nearly everything in these polls. I think thatโs just how many are caught within the RW media brainwashing.
I just wish we had more ice shows! The closest SOI to me is Hershey and Iโve done it a few times but it seems less and less worth it every time. Hoping for some easy/safe places to visit for SkAm and Nats this year๐ค๐ฝ
Alissa Czisny is a 2x US National champion and Grand Prix Final champion known for her artistic skating.

Rohene Ward is currently an award winning choreographer (most famously for Jason Brown) and former skater for Puerto Rico.
Emmanuel Savary has been a big proponent of the Diversify Ice movement. You may have seen the US Nationals competitorโs viral performance to Purple Rain.

Also performing, Oona and Gage Brown. The reigning 4 Continent Championship bronze medalists had the moment of the night at US Nationals in January performing their Godfather program:

No I saw one that was like โyou only think all the Russians are doping and not Ilia because of your unconscious biasโ and the replies were all โexcuse me, itโs a very conscious bias!โ They then tried to use Tuktik as an example of not doping ๐ฅด
Iโve been listening to the book Victim by Andrew Boryga, itโs great satire and will even have you reminiscing the Twitter days of yore.

One can only hope this inspires more skaters to go out there and skate with joy ๐ So proud of all the medalists, though still a bit heartbroken for Kaori. โธ๏ธ
Just to clarify for the people on the timeline, Jordan is NOT on the ice during competitive performances. He films the intros (when they come out of the tunnel and onto the ice) and the bows/coming off the ice. Itโs also likely he WILL film the gala while the skaters are performing. โธ๏ธ
I feel so bad for Amber, she looked stressed that whole skate and really rushed it. And while us figure skating fans know that this isnโt out of the norm for her, the headlines are brutal right now (even denigrating Alysa โonlyโ in third). I hope someone took her phone ๐ โธ๏ธ
Eteri canโt, only Daniil was submitted as a coach as they thought heโd be more likely to get approved for AIN status. Eteri only technically came with the Georgian federation.
I did this with Piper and Paul, I was like โthat was a bit cautiousโ and then when I rewatched it I realized *I* was just anxious.
Oooh interesting, who do you have as the medalists?

Iโm incredibly not confident with my final @rockerskating.com picks, but my luck is so bad with these things that maybe this means Amber will win ๐ซ โธ๏ธ
Did the pairs Men? Yes. But can they Men harder? Absolutely.
Itโs gonna be a hard watch tomorrow even if they all do swimminglyโฆ. because what if they didnโt? โธ๏ธ
They didnโt beat Lia and Trennt in the technical score but the components/artistic one which is perhaps even more baffling.
This is unfortunately a pattern with the Georgian pair. They just won the European championships too which may have been an extra part of the score boost.
Thank you for not abandoning us! Your posts are still the most helpful for seeing the in competition calls ๐ซถ
A screen shot of Donovan Carrillo giving an interview to Telemundo with a caption that says โfor four more years, because Iโm sure I can keep growing.โ Implying he plans to skate until the next Olympics.
Four more years of Donovan! We can rest easy now. ๐ฒ๐ฝ โธ๏ธ
Denis Ten would be proud ๐ฅฒ
She was too stunned to speak โธ๏ธ Congrats to Mikhail though, what an amazing achievement for Kazakhstan ๐ฐ๐ฟ
They are also dropped for components. And it is fairer but itโs still ripe for abuse- itโs just easier to hide it.
Paul Poirierโs fiancรฉ Kevin watched his medal winning skate and now Iโm crying AGAIN ๐ฅน #olympics #figureskating
