That's the generic response from every skater! It's so boring. Like you have to give a blanket statement rather than say how you feel. Ugh...
Wow I feel like I've been saying this for decades. Going all the way back to the Kwan Years.
I will say that today's skaters seem to be, in general, a bit more candid than skaters of the past...this may be due in large part to the increased exposure of social media, backstage coverage and fan interviews (TSL, etc.). Gotta come up with a bit more than "I need to skate my best" to fill the time.
Wagner stood out for a while (up to Sochi) as one who took the candor to the next level and was as close as you could get publicly to being "raw" so to speak. Of course, she was taken to task for that approach (ahead of her time perhaps?)...Nagasu has historically been a good interview IIRC, if a bit guarded, but lately it seems she is somewhat less afraid to let that guard down in public - which leads to moments like what we saw in that video.
