WangXian on Ice!!!! Thank you Wang Shiyue and Liu Xinyu for this performance!! ♡♡♡♡ The way the crowd cheered when Wang Yibo and Xiao Zhan's vocals came in.. XD my heart skipped a beat when I heard it. I thought WangLiu will only be using the instrumental version. I was smiling the entire time. Fan arts on Twitter are already coming in as well as ice skating au fan fics? Lol!! WangXian is a fever me might not recover from for a long time.. ♡♡♡♡

SCI18 Ice Dance Reflections

Skate Canada, why do you hold events at non-olympic sized rinks? That’s just asking for things to go wrong. Can’t wait for Montreal 2020, which is primarily to be held at this exact rink.

Hubbell/Donohue - I wish Madi still had her old rd dress even if I get that they obviously don’t want to risk fringe falling off and getting a deduction again. The new ending pose works though. For the free I think they still haven’t really figured out how high the emotions should be in what places. Last week it was Zach who overplayed it in the ending, this week when he closed his eyes it was much better. Instead Madi was the one who overdid it in their entry to the slide (which isn’t even that nice to begin with tbh) and in the ending as well. The stationary lift also went a bit wonky, but it is still the most interesting lift they do since they took out the rotational lift they had at U.S Classic.

Sinitsina/Katsalapov - I will never trust these two to be consistent, but they did as well as they could here. Her rd dress is the wrong kind of Russian drama, with the shreds to create the impression of speed. That said their tango is really intricate and they skate very close to each other, which is such a relief compared to some others. The lift was also good. The rd is definitely their stronger program though. The free is kind of a mixed bag for me, but in a really weird way. It has good flow in it, so that I don’t really notice the individual elements, but because of that none of the elements really stand out for me in a good way either. That said, good on Vika for keeping up the interpretation so that I didn’t even notice the dress mishap until i saw a picture of it. Not even the tech was affected by it. Definitely Russian #2.

Gilles/Poirer - The fact that they were involved in so many near collisions in the warm-ups is very them (I kind of wondered whether the other teams were extra stubborn with not giving way to them, just knowing that they tend to take it for themselves). I really wish they would’ve had a clean rd, because that’s the one I’m not sold on yet. It feels like a slower kind of tango than some of the others, but I am not sure of how much of that is them being slower and how much is the camera work. I really dislike the second set of twizzles they do in the tango - it is just so awkward. On the other hand I like the lift they have in it. Also Paul, stop using facial hair to do the interpretation for you. The free is a really good program though. When i watched the practice footage i didn’t think they really sold it, but they brought it in competition. They have a cool entrance into the twizzles, and like I said before, I really like their position in the third set of twizzles. Another good thing is the choreographic slide. That said, where they can go wrong for me is by being too literal, and there are a couple of things in this program that point to that. The paint splatter on Paul’s shirt is one. The other is the ending lift. It is a cool lift, I’ll give them that, but I just keep thinking that it is a literal interpretation wherein she is the ”starry starry night” over ”vincent’s” head. They also seemed to be grasping for each other quite a lot for having skating together a long time? The way they fought in the free was great still.

Lauriault/ La Gac - I really like their rd. They have their own style, with all the between the legs movements etc. You could really see them having to think about it in the pattern though, which transferred into their levels as well. They had a nice chemistry throughout it regardless of the tech which was a plus. Same goes for the fd. The chemistry is still really sweet, the between the legs movements in the opening still cool. They have some complicated lifts, some of which look good and some that get a bit messy. For me the rd is the stronger program (W/L should’ve beaten them in the free tbh).

Smart/Diaz - I don’t really like their skating asjkljskl. That said, the tango had a real tango feel to it, and they committed to performing it. I can’t tell if the murder face from Adria was intentional, or just him concentrating? For the free I must’ve been in the minority, but i actually liked the ”Sunday morning” outfit she had at ACI. This dress was not it. I like their first lift, but I think they need to sell the program more. I can’t remember if it was at ACI or the Skate Canada practice but they (she) sold the stop in their choreographic character step sequence much better wherever that was. The slide was so slooow, and really covered no ice, which they should probably look at.

Wang/Liu - He is such a good performer. She is as well, but it is more unusual when the man matches the woman’s performance level. They do have expansive skating, which I think you need in order to contend (or need to get in order to be a contender). The height difference never bothers me, it just makes them unique. That said I prefer their free dance over their rhythm dance. The rd is still good though, I just think it is not as a coherent of a program. It really comes alive in the Pirates of the Caribbean part. I almost wish all of it was to that music. They also seem to connect more to it. In regards to their free, I love all their lifts in it. But I really don’t like their choreographic slide. Still the stronger program which I think will grow even further.

Twydale/Buckland - I said most of what i thought about the tango and their fd last week. But the fact that they improved their score by quite a lot (by getting higher levels) in front of a much stricter tech panel bodes well for their continued improvement this season. Hey Nick, thanks for gracing the kiss and cry with your presence!

Soucisse/Firus - She really reminds me of Gabriella Papadakis and I can’t figure out why. Their fall in the rd was unfortunate, but they weren’t getting the higher levels even before that. M-F telling them the kiss and cry have mics was hilarious though. The hiphop tango itself was…look, I’ll take any kind of music variation I can get. They are really going for the same kind of vibe in both programs though, which I don’t think is the best idea. I’m kind of neutral on the fd, but what I do think they need to do is skate bigger. There were moves that could be expansive and open to the crowds, but weren’t.

Sales/Wamsteeker - Double buns in the rd was nice. I don’t usually like to compare the costumes to V/M but that was clearly Tessa’s MR lol. Why green though for a tango? Even if it was a great color for her. I liked the way the two different pieces of music was cut in the rhythm dance - it was kind of abrupt, but it worked and then it speed up in the second part really nicely for a couple of moments. They were lucky that S/A had such a rough competition, otherwise they had been in last for sure. With a lot of teams doing an abrupt change of music before the choreographic character step sequence I thought theirs was a nice change of pace that fit in easily with the music.

Skoptcova/Aleshin - Eurosport cut out in the middle of their rd, so i didn’t see most of it live. It was seemed to be a very ambitious program, with the pattern at the end, and given that they lost training time due to injury in the summer they really weren’t up to par here. That said, I did like their interpretation of the tango. She does have the annoying kind of tango kicks though, and they in general need to extend/straighten their legs more. The free just wouldn’t go their way so I don’t really wanna say anything about it yet. They do have something though.

#i'm leaving for the ferry for helsinki real soon so i wanted to get this out here before that #because otherwise i'll inevitably fall behind and give up after just one comp lol #anyhow enjoy my stream of consciousness #can you believe that i thought i'd be able to do all the disciplines at skam #sci18 #hubbelldonohue #sinitsinakatsalapov #gillespoirer #lauriaultlagac #smartdiaz #wangliu #twydalebuckland #soucissefirus #saleswamsteeker #skoptcovaaleshin

HMMMM. bock - fever, rika - clair de lune, wangliu - pirates, vm - hip hip chin chin

hi bb i answered this late on purpose right before we get new grand prix assignments to fret about hehe

bock fever:

throw the whole thing in the trash / dislike it / neutral / really like it / love it / i have decided to stan forever

after letting it simmer for several months after worlds, i can say that this program didn’t really deserve much of the hallelujah praise we’ve thrown it. i wish they split up that combo lift near the end; it got quite clunky and impeded their already evident lack of speed. (however what this program did for us - the fans - during four continents 2019 is a feeling that i would loooove to be replicated for season 19-20 blease) the music cut could’ve been integrated better - i’ve been thinking about what would go well with fever and part of me wanted them to go full buble and use feeling good for the second half. this gif isn’t on an element but rather it shows the commitment they have to the program - which imo what got us all hooked into it. they’ve given it their all despite missing out on the grand prix and they’ve honestly never looked better. i hope they take the positive aspects of this program with them onto the next.

rika clair de lune:

throw the whole thing in the trash / dislike it / neutral / really like it / love rika / i have decided to stan forever

it’s not rika’s fault; i just find clair de lune as meh warhorse music and more suited to juniors. it does give her a delicate contrast compared to the powerhouse that is beautiful storm? she has such lovely arm movements and fantastic posture to complement her skating - it’s just that, minus the jumps i feel like i’ve seen this already. guess i’m gonna look at it as a mao tribute anyway please look at above gif to see bb gorl spitting over isu giving higher points to URs for effort

wang/liu pirates:

throw the whole thing in the trash / dislike it / neutral / really like it / love it / i have decided to officially stan

might be blanking out on others but they probably had the most creative rd music choice without veering away from the theme. they got lost in the olympics under the sea of despacitos but they really showed up for this program. add in the mostly romain choreo (he really did sumn with those embellished claps) and i can now say months after worlds that i prefer this over their lyrical gadbwah fd. how i wiiiish they could’ve hit their key points, how they should straighten their knees a teensy bit more, how gadbonus should apply to them the same way it does for the yt teams, but. baby steps. shiyue is a star and i can say with my whole chest that xinyu is the only tall male ice dancer that matters (he has a great back) and there’s nowhere to go but up. congrats on cracking the top ten in world standings bbs !!

vm hip hip chin chin fd:

throw the whole thing in the trash / dislike it / neutral / like it / love it / i have decided to stan forever / thalia said they’re one sixteenth mexican

listen. LIIIIISSSSTTTTEEEEN. they performed this once. (1). uno. which is where they should’ve landed on that worlds podium (i mean queen t was wearing a gold dress to compelement their rightful medal but i digress) i get that they probably chose this style as a way to prepare for next season’s short with the limited time they got but boy what a power move to go from classical music to salsa club - another feather to their versatility. there’s so much good stuff to here: the first ten seconds came for my wig right out the bat; the twizzles got me screaming like i shot tequila, there’s this underrated part where scott takes a complex turn and made it look so easy (besp uncle: that is so difficult!) - and the temptation and mujer latina parts are also *chefs kiss*. like if i want them to resurrect another lift it would be between pink floyd’s serpentine and that monster curve up top. no other man will ever be stable; no other lady can hold herself down. it really showcases how much of a team they are. if i had to nitpick because excellence not perfection hihi, their spin leading up to mujer was slower than usual but then again who cares about spins. in conclusion: performed once, and if you put me under pressure, i’d solidify its place on my list as top five. this program is alternatively titled biiiitch the free dance

cw rape, csa, attempted suicide

Ice dancer Liu Xinyu's instagram was hacked, posting images and statements accusing him of the following:

Statuatory rape

Rape of a minor

Taking nude photos of victims for blackmail

Emotional abuse - leading one victim to try and commit suicide

Embezzeling funds (in which Shiyue is also implicated)

Bribing referees

The images in question have all now been taken down from his insta but you can find threads translating/summarising the posts on twitter below the cut, as well as details of a previous allegation of rape of a minor that was supposedly covered up.

I won't link a specific weibo posts because they keep getting taken down but you can find a lot of screenshots of the original instagram posts by searching the tag #多部门已介入核查柳鑫宇自曝事件#

Xinyu hasn't made any statement about the allegations other than himself and Shiyue posting that the account was hacked and that the police have been contacted.

According to weibo various investigations are now taking place.

I really don't know what to say other than I feel sick to my stomach right now.

#let me know if i need to put any more trigger warnings on this #tw rape #tw csa #tw suicide #tw blackmail #tw abuse #liu xinyu #xinyu liu #wangliu #wang liu #figure skating #shiyue wang #wang shiyue

NHK 2022 - Impressions

(I realized I forgot to do this for Sheffield, but since that was the lightest GP imo - not the bloodbath NHK was - and because I live blogged a lot from during the competition, I guess it gets a pass)

I watched live the short programs of Miura/Kihara (I woke up at 6 a.m. for them), women, RD and men. For the free skate, I only watched KanaDai's live since I was away. I caught up with men's fs, WangLiu's, and I still haven't watched women... oops.

Men: Whew, that was a tough battle. I'm obviously happy for Jun and Sota being on the podium, Shoma... I don't vibe at all with the music and with his presentation, I really don't like his programs this season and that's because of personal taste. Objectively... I can't be objective about Shoma, so I'll leave it at that. Kazuki, as always, was a joy to watch and I really hope next year he qualifies for the GPF. Between Adam and Kazuki, I don't know who is the better performer. Seems to be like Kazuki is more of a "classic" performer, while Adam is the more modern one. I will not elaborate on what I mean by that because I'm not entirely sure that I can explain it.

Ice Dance: I reaaaally don't care about ice dance except about KanaDai and WangLiu - the former have something that really draws me in when they skate and their programs this season are amazing, although I hate the latino requirements; the latter - their scores seem fair to me (or at least their position in the ranks), I simply enjoy them for the vibes. And their Batman program... that curve lift was exceptional!

Pairs: Solely watched for Miura/Kihara because they remind me exactly of what pairs used to be. I truly hope they get to be world champions this season (a bit far-fetched, maybe, but possible). I love their energy out on the ice - I'm always smiling when I watch them.

Women: Having only seen the short and knowing the final results, I am extremely glad that Yelim got the gold and Kaori silver. Kaori may be world champion and while I like her skating and her programs for this season, I'm not overly fond of her not improving that Flutz. So Yelim gold - deserved (she got it because Kaori messed up the Loop, right?) Update: Just checked the protocols. Uuf, Yelim had a tough free and Kaori got an edge warning on her 3Lz and clearly qs for a combo. So Yelim got the gold thanks to the short, afterall.

Reviving an old meme and subtly revealing what one of the character arcs in "Stars and Sunny Skies" (I'm 90% sure that'll be the name of the series) will be about? It's more likely than you think!

Taper “Wang Liu” sur le net vous trouverez cette magnifique photo.. Je me demande d'où ça vient ? Serait-il mannequin pour un magasin en ligne vendant uniquement des déguisements médiévaux ? Quelle horreur...
