Growsonwalls September 17, 2020 Share September 17, 2020 I think if any of the Russians were to go to Orser Alena might be the best fit. Alena has very strong technique (she didn't actually train with Eteri for most of her career), but her body apparently has a lot of injuries and she's in a funk.

Jason Brown has also had huge improvement since moving to the TCC, particularly in terms of jumping consistency. His triple Axel was never particularly reliable to begin with and was failing badly in the 2017-18 season, in particular, but is the best it's ever looked now. As far as Medvedeva goes, it took a while (as these things generally do) but she'd gotten pretty good jump-wise by 2019 Rostelecom (her peak event in the TCC period).

The message she left Tracy and Brian on Instagram was heartbreaking. I can't say if it's her choice or not to go to Eteri. I do think she had no other option. She can't go back to Canada anytime soon, and she was already part of Sambo (she was never a member of TCC) - she probably just picked her old coach since the transfer window had already shut down by then. There was already related drama with changing clubs for Kostornaia earlier this year. Her new technique was already declining and the back issues were already flaring up again even during the short stay at Russia... I'd say she wanted to return to TCC.

What she was struggling with was the back injury (chronic), and developing the muscle memory with the new technique. You could see her slip into her old habits all the time even during a performance, or step out of the jumps she'd improved because she couldn't control them. When it was clear she was nervous, or really focused on winning, there wasn't even a pretence to use the new technique, she straight up used the Eteri-style. 21 hours ago, SeanC said: His triple Axel was never particularly reliable to begin with and was failing badly in the 2017-18 season, in particular, but is the best it's ever looked now.

Growsonwalls September 18, 2020 Share September 18, 2020 (edited) This sounds harsh but I don't think Jason Brown will ever have the technique to be a medal contender. Lovely skater, seems like a lovelier person, but it's painful to watch his jumps sometimes. When you compare his triple axel to Hanyu's ... I wish ice shows were more popular in the U.S. because I feel like he'd excel in that environment -- winning personality, a lot of charisma when he skates. But in international competitions I just don't see him becoming that competitive. ETA: I think Gracie Gold might have been a good fit with Orser.

Jason gets very high marks for his triples, hence why he's able to compete with skaters who have quads and win, though he does need a quad to be a contender for a World medal (barring a Milan-type splatfest). We'll yet see, but he's rather late in his career to be learning them. All the same, he wants to compete, regardless of whether he's a World medal contender, and we've seen he's well-positioned to win medals at the 4CC, Grand Prix and national levels. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6356129

If Hanyu didn't do all the intricate transitions and just skated into the jump as most do, one imagines his triple Axel would be even bigger; that's only one aspect of it, and his Axel is the most technically difficult as a result of all the transitions. Unrelatedly, the I.A.M.

Alexa/Brandon - good lord was he always this checked out in the face? I never noticed before when he was skating with Hayven but it is so distracting. They have potential they need more time together for sure. Calalang & Johnson - they look strong, if they skate clean, they will be hard to beat Cain/Leduc - hate her short program costume, I guess she’s going for some kind of dominatrix look since they are skating to music from 50 shades but I don’t like it. Their long program is fine, nothing special, to Rachmaninov which we’ve all heard a million times. They have a rougher quality to their skating as opposed to the other top two teams. Kayne/O’Shea - snoozeville Mariah - I think her long program has potential, I really like the Winner Takes it All part, some of the other selections I didn’t feel were as cohesive Bradie - for whatever reason has gone back to the lutz/loop combo for whatever reason and it was equally unsuccessful. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6375989

Follow your favorite athletes all season long with Peacock Premium. You can also stream hundreds of movies and thousands of episodes all in one subscription. Due to this platform change, we will not auto-renew your NBC Sports Gold subscription. As a 2019-20 Figure Skating Pass subscriber, you’ll continue to have access to over 350 hours of on-demand replays from past competitions, including the 2020 Toyota U.S. Figure Skating Championships, the 2019-20 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating and the 2019 World Figure Skating Championships, on NBC Sports Gold through December 31, 2020.

emmawoodhouse October 7, 2020 Share October 7, 2020 (edited) Not surprised they went this route. I get Peacock Premium as part of my Xfinity package, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to access it. I hope I can work this out before Skate America. 😕 Edited October 7, 2020 by emmawoodhouse Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6389682
justmehere October 7, 2020 Share October 7, 2020 I have Cox, which also includes Peacock Premium. If you have a voice-activated remote, you might be able to say "Peacock" into it (holding down the mic button) and have the access come up. Otherwise, it's available under my On Demand menu. Great news to have the season on this platform. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6389781
emmawoodhouse October 7, 2020 Share October 7, 2020 I activated Peacock using the voice remote. It looks like the free platform. There's no gateway to go to Premium. Sigh. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6389796
peachmangosteen October 7, 2020 Share October 7, 2020 I'm happy about that since Peacock premium is only 4.99. Is there any info on what events exactly they'll be airing and if they'll be live? Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6389875
emmawoodhouse October 7, 2020 Share October 7, 2020 Read the link in the bio. It looks like they're covering everything between Peacock, NBCSN, and NBC. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6389937

That seems to be last year's schedule since it says Skate America is starting October 19th and it doesn't start until October 23rd this year. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2875-figure-skating/page/118/#findComment-6390674
