Figure Skating Confessions

“After Yuzu, P/C and Sui/Han, mens, ice dance and pairs will be so bland, and maybe will be for quite some time. There won’t be anymore nails that are sticking out, just a field of sort of the same, similar things over and over.”

“I must say the World Standings drama is absolutely hilarious. It never mattered in the last few seasons anyway, and even if the fans are gloating about it now, it is still irritating, remember they're being arrogant over the skater who’s number one lost by a wide margin to their rival in the GPF this season and can only win titles when their head rivals aren't competing.”

“Team competitions at the olympics should just be gotten rid of. It makes no sense when you know which country is going to be on the podium and what place they come in. They should bring back team competition when there are 6 or 7 countries that are in medal contention, kind of like artistic gymnastics.”

“Is it too much to ask if I want yuzu to have another OGM, and p/c to have the same number and type of individual Olympic medals as v/m? The former is a possibility, but I don’t think ISU will allow the latter to happen.”

“I know Yulia had timing issues in 2015 when she got a lot taller, and so has Sasha in the latter half of the season when she grew a little, but Alina has had ur issues, rotational issues, technique issues and edge issues, but never timing issues. Maybe that swingy lutz entry really works for her.”

“I am not an Adam Rippon fan (he gets too messy on social media imo), but I feel really bad about all of the homophobic trash he's been getting from Taylor Swift fans right now.”

“From the ISU Program Components marking chart, available on their website - COMPOSITION: Purpose (idea, concept, vision, mood); pattern/ice coverage; multidimensional use of space and design of movements; phrase and form (movements & parts of the program to match the musical phrasing); ORIGINALITY OF THE COMPOSITION. So now, tell me again how a program recycled four times should be getting 10s in this category?”

This has been moved to a new blog!

Alright, guys, the queue has run out, no more confessions will be posted on this blog (by us).

Our new FS Confessions blog is: 

@figureskatingconfessions

For those of you who didn’t see our previous posts, this blog has been moved to a new one because we’ve been having troubles with tumblr technically and with former admins (as well), mainly. We won’t do anything more with this blog, but in the case that there is any activity or new posts in this blog from here on out, please, know that it’s not the current and active admins doing it, it’s just former admins that left and stopped running the blog, but appear from time to time to post, and just do things without our consent and knowledge. We can’t do anything about this unless we delete the blog, but we don’t want to do that and lose all the confessions on here, it wouldn’t be fair. You are ofc, still allowed to like, comment and be supportive on those posts, if you want, it’s your choice. Thank you for all that you amazing people have done, we appreciate it and wouldn’t be here, like this and this far without you. We love your support and take it to heart, dearly. Please, stay safe and enjoy your week.

Anyway, we hope to see you on the new blog, don’t forget to follow it! 😊

“All of my love goes to Stephen Gogolev. Poor thing had such a rough season and nothing turned out his way, but hopefully the next will be better!”

[figure-skating-confessions]

“It amazes me how young kids like, Stephen Gogolev can adjust to such environment changes, body changes, all while being high school students and an elite leveled athletes so well. It has to be harder than it seems on the surface, coaching changes, injuries, and growth spurts are always so hard.”

“I know she said it didn't work when she tried it earlier, but I think Alysa should give the 4S another go, I think her edge jumps are better than her toe jumps (particularly/only the Lutz).”

“‘Nathan looks like he doesn't care about and looks down upon figure skating as a sport!!!’ Cue Nathan using his free time to complete his coaching certification and coaching the younger skaters.... your faves can never and will never, sorry not sorry.”

[figure-skating-confessions]

“Omg, apparently in the month since Worlds got cancelled, Nathan went and became a certified coach.”

[figure-skating-confessions]

“Sometimes, I admit, I think maybe, I do overhype Nathan too much, and maybe he really isn’t all that good, at least compared to some. But, then I rewatch his programs and I'm just like. God. What an icon. Perfection. Beautiful. Amazing. Absolutely Riveting. Stunning. And, I just fall in love with his skating all over again.”

“I always find myself watching figure skating while eating bad food (ex: chips, candy, etc.), and it makes me wonder if skaters ever eat any types of bad foods?!”

“If the Chinese and the Russians starts politicking in Beijing by guaranteeing Chinese pairs the gold and Russian ice dance teams the gold and screw P/C (politics started in euros already), I want P/C to pull a Savchenko.”
