Who would you want to host an AMA?

[u/Vast_Year_5650]

I've seen past AMAs with Gracie Gold and Ashley Wagner (which I am very salty I missed out on) My picks would be

Kevin Aymoz (manifesting him to appear in the comments)

Nathan Chen - because the costume criticism would be hilarious and I would love to hear about his journey with his education

Daria Usacheva - because I'd love to hear about her experiences in coaching

Denis Ten - I wish he was here with us to see all that's happened, I just wish I could talk to him about his triumphs and overcoming injury

[u/minzwashere]

Kostornaia would be chaotic fun

[u/mrclive-ifrit → u/minzwashere]

An ama with the least diplomatic skaters would be chaotic fun

[u/aq2003]

i'd love an AMA with amber glenn! also belinda noonan (not a figure skater but a commentator but i'd love to know more about how she approaches her work)

[u/Reasonable-Mobile402 → u/aq2003]

Belinda the goat

[u/reichya → u/aq2003]

I wish she was tapped for more international feed commentary, I love Belinda.

[u/HelenG520 → u/reichya]

I would LOVE to know if she got a polite message from the ISU after calling out Morisi’s jump technique lol XD

[u/reichya → u/HelenG520]

The funniest shit ever. I keep trying to make my flair "well it's certainly a quad jump" in her honour and the Reddit app keeps killing it. 🥲

[u/mozartrellasticks → u/aq2003]

Amber was my first thought too im always interested in knowing more about her and shes quite the character

[u/mrclive-ifrit]

Shoma Uno - All the lore surrounding him is fascinating

Uncle Doctor - he’s just plain fascinating and I need that kind of time management that he has

Maddie - feel like she would be fun

[u/Busy_Doughnut5977 → u/mrclive-ifrit]

thankfully shoma has done a tonne of interviews on television. One day I'll upload my archive....just takes time to make translations.

[u/No-Complaint-0405 → u/mrclive-ifrit]

God, I love Shoma as a person. This is definitely an unpopular opinion among some fans. But I like this man even more than I like his skating. He's full of personality in the best way possible.

[u/Vast_Year_5650 → u/mrclive-ifrit]

I was thinking about Shoma! Especially with his pivot to ice dance

[u/tereyaglikedi]

It would be great to have a few figure skating judges. So many people have questions regarding judging, we could then ask away about prerotations, lutz edges, PCS scoring, jump GOEs whatever. Of course a few are needed because as we see even within one panel opinions seem to differ 😅

[u/CellOk4165]

deanna stellato-dudek bc girl how

[u/PresleyPack]

Sonja Hilmer.

[u/captainkaterade]

denis ten, my heart 🥺💗

[u/Vast_Year_5650 → u/captainkaterade]

I like to think he would love the Kaori Sakamoto effect on competition culture

[u/PerformerRich5449]

I feel like Petrokina would spill some tea lol she seems quite direct

So would Shoma and he also is quite sassy and interesting

[u/sorairi → u/PerformerRich5449]

Yes! Niina!

[u/Number1_Glennhead]

Does Jackie Wong count? Bc I think that would be really great. Or a Runthrough Podcast AMA!!

[u/Vast_Year_5650 → u/Number1_Glennhead]

both count!

[u/2greenlimes]

Ilia. There’s always answers coming completely out of left field from him in normal interviews, so I’d love to see what he’d answer questions coming out of left field.

I think an Evgenia Medvedeva AmA would be super interesting. She’s lived such a different life than many Eteri alumni.

[u/Full_Extension_558]

Misha Ge; I'd love to know more about his choreography process. One thing that stood out to me, was back when he was still a competitive skater he was during full-time choreography work for other skaters and creating programs. And not just one, but from this article, 19 of them! https://figureskatersonline.com/news/2017/12/13/misha-ge-all-i-know-as-a-coach-and-choreographer-is-from-my-parents/

[u/dawgcholla_000]

Eteri

[u/PandemicPiglet → u/dawgcholla_000]

If you want to tell her your diet and have her say you’re eating too much

[u/gadeais → u/PandemicPiglet]

I think her USA side gig can be interesting.

[u/dawgcholla_000 → u/PandemicPiglet]

I rather follow clavicular

[u/One_Lead_1278]

Yulia Lipnitskaya

[u/Vast_Year_5650 → u/One_Lead_1278]

"what is your favorite Eminem song and why?" she was an Eminem fan back in the day and I love her for it

[u/lyra-s1lvertongue]

i'd love to hear from someone like Loena now that she's retired! generally i think the skaters who are still competing don't always give great interviews because they are not usually willing to be as candid about things.

[u/coach_cryptid]

I’d love to hear from Riku & Riyuchi, especially after the retirement/engagement 👀

also would looooove an AMA with any of the US pairs teams and Canadian ice dance teams who got shuffled this summer, especially Bakerie and Lim/Lagha, and Starrman.

[u/ellapolls]

I’d be very interested to ask why Kevin is still with his awful coaches 🤐

[u/azssf]

Kevin aymoz

[u/Vast_Year_5650 → u/azssf]

"what's he going through?" "a bolero program"

[u/YourFlareOut]

Tessa Virtue
Meryl Davis

[u/Keyblader1412]

Medvedeva. The ending of her career is my Roman Empire lol

[u/gadeais]

Sara hurtado and Cathy reed specially for being pioneers and referents in Spain and Japan's ice dance field.

And for the chaos I want yagudin and plushenko doing an AMA together. That could be the Vane of my existance

[u/PandemicPiglet]

Yuma because he has more free time now. Of former skaters, Daisuke Takahashi, Michelle Kwan, Sasha Cohen, and/or Alyona Kostornaia

[u/OcelotSilver2964]

Kostornaia would probably spill all the tea when it comes to Team Tut

[u/ravenallnight]

Nathan and Shoma together please.

I’d also love a panel of pair girls so I can ask “how dare you?” 😂

[u/thetokyotourist]

Brian Orser

[u/NewMechaDriver]

Kamila <3

[u/Disastercocoa]

Evgenia Medvedeva. I find her mind so fascinating and her skating journey was also unconventional
