Other than the Ice Capades,...i'm a liar again. Other than the Ice Capades, what have skaters ever done when they retire (young) from skating? Johnny Weir is the guy I think who could take skating in a completely different direction and make it really popular just to watch, like going to a concert.yokohamamamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17098212549844656652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887815904207696270.post-73808456978345062442010-01-29T17:17:39.406-08:002010-01-29T17:17:39.406-08:00I said I wouldn't post anything else, but I...I said I wouldn't post anything else, but I'm a liar. <br />"But my fav is the kick ass slide across the ice..." --that and the sexy hand up the leg!<br />To find the yukata party, go up in your post to the video, there should be other video thumbnails along the bottom. Just keep going to the right. I couldn't get all the way over, but let the cursor rest on each one. The yukata party was all the way over to the right (I couldn't see the whole thumbnail), and the tag said "Yukata Party". I thought, Whoa!, I hafta see that. Johnny Weir in a yukata. He's so polite and well-spoken in the interview, too.yokohamamamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17098212549844656652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887815904207696270.post-5597504703399811612010-01-29T16:16:08.398-08:002010-01-29T16:16:08.398-08:00KayKay: I love that spot too, but my fav is the ki...KayKay: I love that spot too, but my fav is the kick ass slide across the ice at 2:58 :-)ann foxleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292753544948906280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887815904207696270.post-27144925130769963632010-01-29T14:33:58.519-08:002010-01-29T14:33:58.519-08:00That is just...incredible!

That spin he does at the 3:23-3:25 mark left me completely speechless. This is a really awesome video!

I missed the yukata party and now I can't find it... email me the link!<br />I didn't know th part about him having been an equestrian too-- makes sense. <br /><br />I totally agree, too, I love the way he skates because he can *dance*. The guy just moves well :-)<br /><br />He learned how to do a double axel (I think that's the one) when he was 12, before having any training, just by watching TV. <br />I'm totally jealous of that ability-- my gross motor skills blow.ann foxleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292753544948906280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887815904207696270.post-41836651393633431322010-01-29T04:37:20.126-08:002010-01-29T04:37:20.126-08:00ooh, ooh--just one more little note, then I'll...ooh, ooh--just one more little note, then I'll shut up. Did you watch all the videos? Did you watch the yukata party and the interview with him? He just said Takahashi is one of his 2 favorite skaters to watch (knew it!!

I've never watched him in exhibition before--Yappari! I've always kind of wondered how he would skate if he were just skating for himself, not judges. That performance hilights what I think differentiates Johnny Weir from other guy skaters-- he can *dance*. I could tell watching him skate in competition that he moved well. Most skaters are skaters, not dancers. He can do both *really* well. That he can dance is what makes his style look so different.<br />Anyway--thanks, thanks, thanks!! My favorite US skater!! ao.yokohamamamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17098212549844656652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887815904207696270.post-71656898223443029332010-01-29T04:08:40.562-08:002010-01-29T04:08:40.562-08:00Of course my sister likes the same skater I do! H...Of course my sister likes the same skater I do! He was an equestrian before he was a skater. I *love* his style. Hot tip--watch Japanese skater Takahashi, also in the running for a medal and way cute (if Prince were Japanese, I think that's what he would look like). He also has a beautiful, lyrical style that doesn't look like the typical men's athletic, angular style. *Love* him! And Mao's going to get the gold this time, unless Ando hits her quad (only woman to land a quad in competion) or Kim Yu Na is on fire (she's Korean)...<br />ao.yokohamamamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17098212549844656652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887815904207696270.post-14134115495808149422010-01-28T20:33:59.249-08:002010-01-28T20:33:59.249-08:00I am all over that show!
