I went to both shows today. Awesome!
Plu skated White Tosca in the 1st half, with Edvin. He did two 3T and 2A in all his performances, with no quads or trixels. In the afternoon Tosca he fell on steps out of the blue (there was some trouble with the ice before that, they had to stop the show to repair the surface, apparently not all holes were done
). He looks so much like Sasha in that blonde waving hair. White Tosca was a blend of romantism and power. He was like a violinist where the violin was his blades playing the music on ice. Very emotional and tender performance, beautiful arms, sharp fast feet, no empty note that wasn't presented on the ice.
Carmina (Plumina) is a completely different character and quite unusual for Plu himself. I read before about Dark Lord, etc. and it didn't really fit in my mind: Plu and Dark
? How is it possible? Today I figured out what was actually meant. Some medieval inquisition on bloody ice defeated in Inferno by Lord of Life on the mission Good vs. Evil
. The "powerful" is not the word. That was mystic beyond an average man who could "moved" arenas' construction just moving his arms and the mesmerized helpless audience could barely realized what had just happened
. The final battle finished on major music note with his arm up to the sky and Light. Wow!
Plu also watched all performances of Team Snow King. Among the retired skaters Johnny stood out. He was in the excellent physical form, sparkling, speedy, full of character and creation.
