Bradie Tennell skating to Vivaldi's Four Seasons for her free program at the 2022 MK John Wilson Trophy, 2023 US Nationals and 2022 Grand Prix of Espoo.
I'm truly the worst at interacting, let alone in a timely manner, but all this booping has got me wanting to boop some costumes, so I've decided to do polls to crown the favourite costume from the 2023–2024 season. There will be multiple rounds. I haven't set a limit on the number of entries yet, let alone who the contenders will be, so... message me or reply here if you want me to include anyone in particular!
My hope for next season and leading into the Olympic season is that the ISU somehow revives womens skating cause yes it’s beautiful yes it’s lovely but is it exciting? Ehhhh.
In my personal opinion it’s the discipline that’s stagnated the most post Covid. You can argue that the crown goes to ice dance in that regard but even though the judging is shitty and the ISU insists on ridiculous themes for the rhythm dance we’re still getting quality and creativity through the bouts of corruption.
I just feel like women’s choreography has plateaued, it’s become uninteresting, very little memorable programs. Same elements same ordering same music like it’s becoming a by bland to watch. And my honest wish for the future is to reignite the spark it once had.
Ilia Malinin of the US brought the house down with a World Record free skate to come up from third to win his first World title. Yuma Kagiyama of Japan won the silver.
Adam Siao Him Fa of France, who was nineteenth after the short, had the second-best free of the day and moved up to win the bronze. His first world medal, it's the biggest jump to the podium EVER.
