I just love everything about mao, she just blows me away everytime I watch her without adoubt the BEST SKATER IN THE WORLD, she just has the hole package her spirals are so beautifully extended, her stepsequences are so hard and fast, her jumping ability is just incredible, her jumps are always solid and smooth and feels so light. She just has everything pro need, and knows how to deliever remarkable performance.

You think she was the best as a whole when technically she couldn’t perform a lutz for half of her career? She is indeed my favorite skater artistically, but is not the best fully.

@@kiodoiii8794 yea no that’s not how Lutz jumps work technically. A skater being strong at a Lutz edge or a flip edge is usually a natural thing. Skaters don’t decide they want to jump on the wrong edge when they’re learning the jump, it’s like that because that’s just how their bodies are wired. And yes, you can train to counteract your foot naturally leaning on the wrong edge, but it takes a really long time, requires a lot of hard work, and it still can be hard to land consistently. It doesn’t mean they’ve never landed a Lutz jump if they’re on the wrong edge :|

@@psychstudentrip yeah no. A lutz must be performed on an outside edge or it’s not a lutz. The point of a lutz is the counter rotation in the jump, and if the take off is from an inside edge, there is no counter rotation, as the skater takes off from the same direction they rotate in. It’s true that for most skaters, there is a natural inclination towards the flip or lutz, but that doesn’t change anything in regards to the rules.

And that's how you do a perfect jump with your hand over your head. Is it a tano? Unlike Medvedeva's jumps that are so celebrated today. 😐

i think that her face is so out of interpretation because she is so worry about the axels jumps and the other technical elements, altrought she is elegant and has beautiful lines.

Why did she use this song again in Olympics for her short program. Is it even allowed?
@psychstudentrip3 жыл бұрын
Yes, it’s allowed. A lot of skaters (and yes other skaters exist if you didn’t realize) will sometimes use the same music/program in back to back seasons. Yuko Kavaguti/Alexander Smirnov reused their Clair De Lune free skate I believe 4 seasons in a row, and they were one of the main medal contenders at international competitions about 5-6 years back. There is nothing in the rule book that says you can’t reuse music.

Some of y'all pitting the Queens against each other? And I see it on Mao Monday????? Anyway I've been looking at a lot of skaters' programs from junior to senior (focused on the JPN and KOR ladies tho). It's really nice to see how they improve over the years especially in terms of performance

She lacks face expressions and her performance doesn't match the music perfectly. Also I think her skating speed is rather slow. That's why Kim is called the Queen

Yuna is queen for sure but if u really believe face expression is important elements for figure skating rather than her absolute stunning 3A, hardest step sequence, beautiful spins. I think u should watch figure skating more. I hope u can truly enjoy beautiful skaters beside Yuna
@kiodoiii87945 жыл бұрын
timepickle Well, it’s true. It’s about development though. In my opinion, Mao’s later programs are ten times better than Yunas later programs. Mao is my favorite skater artistically, but honestly, in terms of artistry and technical consistency, Yuna was truly the best figure skater of the time.

Lucas ... Mao has far more expression than Kim .. Kim is simply more beautiful face-wise .. and watch Kim simply pose several times during her routines .. so effin what .. that is not showing expression .. unless it is done with the entire body as Mao does so wonderfully
