Holy Cow, Nathan was astounding.

 

[yelyoh]

Nathan learned a lot about controlling nerves from his Olympic experience.

 

[noskates]

Nathan just crossed the i's and dotted the t's. Congratulations.

 

[GGFan]

The score!! Is this US Nationals!!!?!?!

 

[satine]

I am stunned. What a competition!

 

[Spirals for Miles]

Quad time Jason! you got this! get a medal!

 

[Ichatdelune]

WHOA

And Yuzuru was full kuyashii just back there (sigh)

 

[champagnerain]

...oh gosh, Nathan and Yuzuru were both so great that I forgot that Jason still has to skate. :eeking:

I'm sorry Jason I LOVE YOU.

 

[satine]

OK but what if Vincent medals over Jason? :sarcasm:

 

[draqq]

Wow, Chen delivered again! What tremendous pressure right after Yuzuru!

The technical brilliance in this program is insane. Only real blip was the 3F into 3S combo being a bit scratchy but everything else was very well-landed, and his tech score is going to be off the charts.

A bit more focused but this is one of his better artistic outings. I think the first-third of the program could have more complex choreography, and it's not until the flourishes in the spin that I started to believe in the program and in his intention. A little surprised that his presentation is at a 94, maybe more like a 92 for me here.

Who says Nathan can’t go to Yale full time and win Worlds?

 

[discode]

Raf so happy with his favorite child

 

[jillredhand]

When was the last time THAT kind of competition happened? Holy sweet .... Yuzuru sets two WR, and then Nathan goes out and doesn't just beat them both, he BLOWS them out of the water?

I legitimately feel faint. I can't believe I just witnessed that.

 

[Jammers]

US will win two medals no matter how Jason skates. :thumbsup:

 

[Hyena]

I can't wait for next season. Yuzu will not take this defeat lying down.

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Only thing missing now is Jason taking the bronze. That would be so great! It will be hard, but go go go!

 

[karne]

Come on Jason. Just be your beautiful best.

 

[Danny T]

That PCS LOL. Quitting figure skating.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

I'm...I'm just gonna close my eyes everytime he jumps, okay?
