These is a good and timely post for Jason in light of his NHK result. https://twitter.com/myohmizmai/status/1109502036813344768
It's such am emotionally drenching experience to be a skating fan and especially of specific skaters. Y'all were a witness to this yesterday and I am do grateful for the love you showed me when I felt down.
I watched Jason’s other NHK Trophy free skates, something I thought I would never do. But watching them made me realize how far he's come since then.
I know everyone wants his time at TCC to result in quads, and I do too, but I think it would be a disservice to not realize the growth he's experienced all around.
I watched his free skate today and I was struck at how much smoothly he gludes and how much more ice now covers.
And then there is the program itself. Even though someone else choreographed it, you can tell how much ownership he took in crafting it.
This is stuff that doesn't translate perfectly in a positive competition result, but I hope he realizes how much he's grown already and that there is still a lot of good things ahead.
