…its the middle of summer.
but also why wouldn’t they have a job that takes up more time than school? do adults really not understand how one can do their homework and then have time for something else…? some people on reddit are slow asf.

Why do you enjoy watching him so much? What made you become a fan? For me it was his musicality honestly! Love the effortlessness of his jumps as well though!

Stephane and Lucinda were both in the top comment but the next comment was for Stephane so I used him with Lucinda in parentheses. Both have amazing spins, my heart will always belong to Kamila’s though. Anyway, someone suggested I add performance so that PCS is complete so here we go who and the best performance? Correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure performance is the entertainment portion, are they enjoyable to watch? Most upvoted comment wins!

skating skills are edge control, technique, movement across the ice. It measures multi directional skating, one foot skating, effortless seeming power and deep edges. Crossovers, spirals, lunges, footwork transitions (mohwaks, brackets, twizzles etc)) are often used to measure skating skills. most loved cment wins!

yes i know fluidity and musicality both go into artistry but overall who has the best? Artistry is how a skater performs, their grace, connection with the music, if they make you feel something. most upvoted comment wins.
anyway yea for any other editors he wants to be edited or V. A. N. (said it in his stream) not to self advertise but here’s mine!

next musicality! musicality is how well a skater connects to the music, does it feel like they’re skating with the music or just in front of it? Do they hit moves on the right parts of the song do they stay on beat, etc.
Okk reposting bc I messed it up the first time.

finished the jump series and there was lots of support to start another one, so let’s give a category where I know the women will shine (and some of the men too!) spins!! We’re going to start with my personal favorite needle spins! so who has the best? same as last series most upvoted comment wins!
note: if you don’t know what a needle spin is it is where the skater spins with their leg in a split behind their back (like a straightened biellman spin)

i could’ve asked about the best quad axel lol but I think we can all agree that goes to the only person to ever land it in competition, Ilia Malinin. This series was really fun, and I might do a different one similar to this with other skating skills (maybe different spins, or choreo moves!). anyway last question who is your favorite jumper? Mine has got to be Ilia, his jumps just feel like he’s flying!

best quad flip?
Just given the fact that if he had gone to Beijing the pressure wouldn’t have been as great, and even if he hadn't medaled he would’ve gotten the Olympic experience which would likely take the edge off 2026 when the whole world was looking at him. but idk maybe no matter what milan just wasnt his year.
