It becomes really apparent when skating fans have never actually skated themselves because equating skating skills with artistry becomes kind of stupid when you realize just how physically demanding holding a single a deep edge or maintaining consistent speed and glide actually is. Like holding an edge is actually a full body work out where your arms and core do so much of the work. Even being able to choose and control what direction you go in is a skill. A slow skater is actually a worse skater than a faster one, a skater that can’t hold a deep edge or skate on one foot for long periods of time is actually a worse skater for it. Like to put into perspective spins are incredibly difficult and a lot of people at my rink are consistently landing multiple single jumps before they’re even thinking about laybacks or sit spins. I’ve seen a lot of doubles at my rink but I’ve yet to see a broken leg sit spin or anyone attempting figures. Like these are difficult technical skills that are incredibly athletically challenging and that’s what makes them aesthetically pleasing. It’s beautiful because it’s hard

mikhail shaidorov’s situation is crazy like what do you meannnn he’s the first figure skater ever from his country to win olympic gold and the kazakh skating federation rewarded that by Not paying him for six months, firing his doctor, and pushing a contract on him with terms that were physically impossible to fulfill then ignoring him when he asked them to fix it. why do they actually fucking hate him he’s just some guy

Hello I can’t stop thinking about the Misha situation. I’m so angry at Kazfed on his behalf. Are they TRYING to fumble an Olympic champion?????? BECAUSE THIS IS HOW YOU FUMBLE AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION.

What do you mean they haven’t paid him for five months????? What do you mean he’s training 4-4 combos without access to a doctor??? What do you mean they’re trying to make him contractually obligated to medal again???????

Misha’s win was exciting in part because he’s the only OGM I can think of who won at a time in his career where he so obviously had plenty of room to grow and many more things to achieve — he’s nowhere near his peak, and I thought his victory would get him the resources he needs to improve his components, work with a world-class choreographer, not have to worry about training costs, etc. Instead he’s having to fight for the bare minimum just as he’s done his entire career. It’s frustrating as a fan, so I can’t even begin to imagine how he feels.

The way he’s being treated by his fed would be unacceptable even if he WASN’T their first-ever figure skating gold medalist and one of the best skaters their country has ever produced. Given that he IS, it’s almost comically evil.

And to rub salt in the wound, this is all being done to him by the country that he absolutely adores and is so proud to represent. All he’s ever wanted is to make his homeland proud and win FOR Kazakhstan so that other Kazakhstani kids don’t have to struggle like he has struggled. And this is how they treat him. Unbelievable.
