Road to Torino

This is sort of a picture/video post but also, anybody feel like speaking of some of the lesser known/talked about programs? :)

My rambling thoughts exactly, bb!

Well, they kind of tweaked Otonal a bit for the Olys to make it more CoP friendly, I guess, but you know it was already pretty damn great the way it was before so the whole thing's sort of. *waves hand* Perfecty fine example of why some things about CoP are retarded.

The truth is, if I ever saw him skate live and I could get to choose which exhibition program he'd do, I'd pick My Way.

Similar rambling. TBH, I lost any hope to get over the Torino Olympics. I know it all, but just can't.)

Thank you for this post...just looked at the picspam and not the depressing shit....loved the pics.

Thank you very much for the HQ.)
It happened once again: at the begininng of the program you think "no, I'm not into it", but somehow you can't stop watching, so he wins moment after moment and gets you involved by the end. And the program is really difficult. Still, I think, I like Otonal much more.

Also interesting glimpses of comment about Johnny's "internal skating" and "in the new system you need to be a good skater and a good mathematician". Funny moment with Patty.)

And pics, of course, but it's my common place - always get enchanted by this inner glow and this listening-to-the-music-no-one-can-hear look:) Thanks!

I think the Nationals performance of it is so great, he definitely pulls you in. Expression in movement.

lol I remember seeing that Patti clip when I didn't actually know anything (or much) about his family and thinking that his mom's kind of weird. hahaha

It's definitely the best out of all other links and it has strong and sure lines. And what is the "music issue" usually about? I didn't like the last part (thought it was dissonating with the beginning), but I'm more than okay with the rest.

Jivago post is a good idea, i will wait for it. Also, like your icon:)

I think a lot of people just have issues with Maksim Mrvica.

I like that program - and you're right, watching without commentary @US Nats is the best. The last costume is the prettiest.

I actually have a folder of pics I set aside just for you with some of the lesser-seen outfits - some of them are of the costumes you posted here.

But if you want me to send it over anyway, just let me know. :)
