This is what 10s across the board on the PCS marks looks like. Give it up judges. As much as I love Nathan too, Jason should have been miles ahead of him in the second mark. Even on his best day, Nathan cannot skate like this. Nathan is always going to have the edge technically, but this is next level pure skating that should be rewarded.
Nathan Chen's my favorite skater, and I totally agree with you. I don't buy into the narratives that "artistry is dying" in figure skating, as there are a lot of great skaters right now, but Jason is in a league of his own.
2:44 best moment ever in figure skating. However, I digress here because I comment plenty about Jason's skating. Would like to point out that this is my favorite Jason HAIRCUT. He needs to let those curls on the top grow again -- cute how they flop around just a little during the skating.
2:44 is everything. This whole program is everything. Thank you so much for uploading this without commentary. This might be my favorite specific performance of this program. It's a shame that this program is during the pandemic era because this is the kind of performance that brings the house down. Stunning.
