[Raichu234]

[SKorea2u]

Great performance

[sargonwu]

Queen Yuna~wooooooo

[MrSe7venlove]

wow she is amazing~

[myii89]

@CrimsonVibrato Nah.. there were some other clean programs. For SP, there's 2007 WC where she set a world record and for LP there's 2007 Cup of Russia where she again set a world record for LP score. I believe there were other cases where she's done clean programs. The reason many commentors mention Yuna's consistency is not because she doesn't make mistakes but because she makes less mistakes than other skaters. So yep, in the skating world, she is considered a very consistent skater :)

[KEBokeh]

@CrimsonVibrato For someone who obviously "dislike" Yuna Kim sure knows a lot about her....dude who cares!...who gives a shit what you and the rest think....the core truth is that you have an opinion, I have an opinion, the world has an opinion and as my grandfather says to me even to this day "opinions are like assholes, we ALL HAVE THEM and THEY STINK" ...and your ranting is like my girlfriend bitching when she's on her period. God your annoying! Why are you even watching this?

[KEBokeh]

@CrimsonVibrato God your really are a whining little bitch....who gives a shit what you think. You may see it as a "fact" but really it's just your "opinion"...and I don't give a flying fuck about your opinion....and one last thing, Scott Hamilton can say whatever the fuck he wants, he can praise Yuna til his face turns blue...he has his right to express and have an opinion about how he feels her skating is so great. The difference is YOU have to be right, Scott doesn't. Your a moron. Bye now!

[myii89]

@CrimsonVibrato Whoa whoa guys let's calm down, shall we? :)

"Consistency" is an abstract term and a skater can seem consistent or inconsistent depending on a person's own meaning of consistency.. Yep! I also think that Yukari Nakano and Rachael Flatt are very consistent skaters! So Scott Hamilton must have a very loose view on "consistency" if he considers Yuna very consistent. You, CrimsonVibrato, have a strict view on "consistency". That's all there's to it! No reason to fight :D

[KEBokeh]

@CrimsonVibrato YOU have every right to say scott is "over praising" her & he has every right too that's all I'm saying but you keep insisting that what HE has to say is WRONG? You are entitled to your "opinion" and so does HE. Now if your concerned about how people will take HIS opinion, well, you have NO control over that. The fact is you can't handle the fact there are people who constantly say GOOD things about her. I think you personally like to hear bad things about Yuna.

[KEBokeh]

@CrimsonVibrato First of all you are going by his comments soley from this video. He actually has stated in other competitions that her biggest weaknesses are her inability to shake off her anxiety before competitions, her lack of flexibility, and her flip. I feel that it's been a while since the fig skating world has been blessed with a skater who is able to bring spark back to this sport and I feel IMO Scott is overwhelme greatly by Yuna's skating, hence his over the top "praises" for her.

[KEBokeh]

@CrimsonVibrato Hahaha...troll...good one. I believe those who criticize him are either anti Yuna or pro Mao...but anyway, Scott WAS a fantastic skater and he doesn't get on my nerves....anti's and people who easily get annoyed by others...now that's pathetic...there are bigger things to worry about...don't you agree? ; )

[MegaCoffeebean]

@dementieva12 what do you mean dance of death?

[HelTra91]

@MegaCoffeebean danse macabre = dance of death.

[DrBandgeek156]

@dementieva12 Can't disagree w/ you more. Even through some of Michelle Kwan's rather "depressing" performances, she still smiles or laughs out of relief after her major jumps... You should really just watch what you're saying :)

[DrBandgeek156]

@dementieva12 I don't quite understand how you're even seeing her smiling throughout. The only major part through her program that I see her smiling was during her spiral sequence. Nowhere else was there any of the smiling that you saw.

[tristan5696]

@dementieva12 Aside from your highly subjective (and even groundless, I, like many other specialists and commentators, would say) critique of the lack of genuine feelings in Kim's performance, your observations seem to be based upon the assumption that since this musical piece is "Danse Macabre," Kim's smiles are not appropriate as a way to portray death.

[tristan5696]

@dementieva12 (continued from below) You've got every right to think as you please (although I don't consider such an argument feasible or critically informed).Yet it might be grist to your mill to think about artistic freedom or to read Henri Cazalis' (unabridged) poem this musical piece is based on. I think Kim is at times superbly depicting "long-lost delights" in this now legendary program.

[tristan5696]

@dementieva12 I agree that figure skating is a subjective field; and yet, as is the case in literary or artistic interpretation, it does not mean that every opinion (or "doxa" one feels tempted to call it) goes. Ultimately, however, I believe you could express here whatever you think of Kim's performance, no matter what critical acclaim she receives from professional commentators and other figure skaters.

[tristan5696]

@dementieva12 But inasmuch as you want to relish such freedom to express your subjective interpretations, wouldn't it be fair for you to consider also the possibility that Saint-Saens' "very serious" music may be interpreted differently by other people who have their own "subjective" views of the music? With all due respect, I don't quite see why you, while insisting so strongly on subjective aspects in figure skating and interpretation, seem to think this music cannot but be serious.

[HelTra91]

@dementieva12 to be honest, me too. i think kurt browning kind of felt the same way, at least until 2009 worlds and then he became a fan boy :P

[KEBokeh]

@dementieva12 I'm so glad everything you wrote is JUST YOUR OPINION and NOT a FACT....

[dreamylife3]

今よりうまい？

この頃のキムヨナは好きです

[yuzukomachi330]

このプログラムで滑った時は凄いと思いました。

イメチェンしたなと、こんなのも滑れるのかと思いました。

シットスピンとスパイラルがお粗末ですがそれ以外は好いと思いま­す。

この後に妨害したとか言わなければまだキムが好きでいられたと思­います。

[lemonpasta]

Amazing!!!

[usually20]

She really knows how to feel the music.

[TheBlacknosugar]
