I just want to gush about Adam Rippon, one of my FS faves, who won silver at Skate America and qualified for the Grand Prix Final. 😊
His programs at Skate America:
SP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-YhX-cHzCo
FS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m1-5IAEhtM
I LOVE LOVE LOVE his SP. It's so fun and he packs choreography into every second and his SPINS!!!
And after a previous shoulder injury, he fell on his shoulder at the start of his FS, *popped his own shoulder back in*, and KEPT SKATING. He finished and got the highest FS score which, like, fucking hardcore, dude.
And everything he does is a 🖕 to homophobia in skating and I LOVE HIM AND I'M SO PROUD!!
