That spread eagle to 3A to spread eagle is to die for.
Somebody finally uploaded his skate so I got to see it. (Hint: Search Youku) Quads weren't as good as Nathan can do, but he was probably a little nervous. After getting thru those it looks like he loosened up and did a great 3A. Overall performance was a lot more polished than even at the GPF.
I hope he skips the gala tonight.
Why?
The gala is very soon after men's competition. He got injured at the gala last year.
Truly amazing performance, especially considering the amount of pressure on him by the media and the fed. Consistency under pressure is what we need.
oh, ok, maybe a performance without jumps or with easy jumps, like Sasha in 2006 olympics.
Really gutsy performance with so much pressure on him. I knew he would go for the 4S because he hadn't been practicing 3L at all this week. Japanese fans went crazy on Twitter afterwards.
What did Japanese fans say?
