My opinions (I know you've all been waiting with baited breath):
Max: It was clean, so good on him for that, and he looks trained and ready for this championship. I really don't think he does enough with the music. It's like he skating through the music, and not with the music. The little things like the lunge down at the beginning of the program, it still look like someone just doing choreography instead of someone performing. I say all this, and yet, there been a marked improvement from where he was. I still think his movement (choreo, not speed/power) needs more breath, it would give the choreography more weight. I keep rewatching that lunge. Does anyone else get where I'm coming from?
Nathan: Well, he's certainly the future. I was watching on a Japanese feed and they were all excited for him. Just need to clean up the jumps. I think it's smart of him to use Michael Jackson, it gives a certain character we're all used to, and lets him perform, which I think he did rather well. I'm excited for him.
Adam: Not his best night with the lutz combo. Triple Axel has certainly become a better jump for him. It was performed well. It was a good program from Adam.
I'll watch Ross as soon as I find a video.
I'm fine with the scores. Max was bound to get some good PCS, as he was clean, though I still think he should be in the mid 7s for Choreo/Composition.
The lack of Jason/Joshua still has me sad.
