My sister looked up to this chic a lot
Slutskaya
tonya Harding
Costner
and this one girl who was japanese whos name escapes me right now but she was phenomenal olympic gold winner like multiple times...
were all ppl she met
and then one of her trainers her name was Yoko Lol but i dont remember her last name but she was also a professional skater
the russian coaches were good skaters but they didnt have the right talent and build like my sister did so they made their living in coaching successfully instead
and then don laws and micheal Weiss were both olympic medalists she trained with as well
and then one time i got to see this guy on ice who was really phenomenal uh one sec I’ll find him
Fuck I’ll find it later i can’t remember his name but yeah it was amazing he like was doing all kinda weird shit in the air
He was fearless and had amazing foot work and performance and amazing strength and speed and rotations like he was just great.
and then uh oh yeah she also trained with Justin Timberlake asa kid before he was famous he was an ice skater lol
Needless to say, I’ve seen a lot, of infamous skaters perform live and a lotttt of competitions and training practice sessions etc.
and this dude, yuru dude is just something else.
U might not know because ur not a figure skater but, what he does is inhuman
and just the full package deal like, the performance is amazing and the choreography and the drive the passion every element is there that needs to be there and still blows you away every time. And also has amazing personality and star quality. “Sparkle” they call it.
like he’s very “lovable” and “marketable” which is important in the competition so, it could be fake but
I was even skeptical of the injury being some sort of stunt or like another skater did it to him on purpose etc, who knows but- when i saw him limping after ward i realize ah no, thats no fake injury lol
i could be wrong but he seems like a very authentic and genuine person.
