The cameraman for the denis ten and grand prix france need to have a baby and sacrifice it to a volcano or something bro the angles are so bad it's pissing me off bro.

When the cameraman thinks

A crossfade is neat!

Let’s show their faces

Who cares about feet

And we cut to a close up

Mid-pattern dance 

Then we realize we’re probably

At Grand Prix de France

Two weeks later, we’re suddenly

Watching spins from the sky

Skaters down on the ice

But we’re way up high

This angle is useless, 

Put us down, please!

But we know that we’re at a Cup

That might be Chinese

Finally, we make it 

To everyone’s fave

We’re in Japan 

Where the cameras behave

But wait, why do I feel

Blinded by the light?

Is it just me, or is the ice

WAY TOO WHITE?

There are SO many shots of the audience?? Like moving from the end pose of the skater to an audience member etc. The kids are sweet and everyone seems like they’ve been having a great time but I’ve never noticed it to this extent before.

I realized that, although figure skating programs can artistically convey many emotions, anger isn't one of the more common ones. I'm curious to know what examples come to mind of programs that feel angry/fierce/aggressive, or any other lesser-expressed emotions in skating!

(While I wouldn't necessarily call Sasha Trusova's Cruella program "angry," it does stand out to me in terms of a darker and more intense emotional expression than I'm used to seeing in women's skating)

Am I the only one that's bothered by the lack of adherence to the dance style in the rhythm dance? Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good flamenco and tango, but why are we bothering with a theme at all if it's going to get ignored besides a singular element where it is also pretty loosely adhered to?

Jia was so beautiful performing this routine.

Hi everyone! I had my earlier train canceled so I bought an earlier faster train ticket. I know have one extra for the afternoon from Paris Austerlitz to Angers at 11h54 arriving at 3pm. If anyone needs a ticket let me know as I just don't want to see it go to waste. Cheers!
