[Victor has an eye for beautiful things, and that smile that Kubo sends his mother's direction catches his attention.

I don't know what Yuuri has told you about figure skating, but essentially a skater's final score is determined by a combination of two parts: their technical score and their presentation score. It isn't simply a matter of performing athletic feats, a skater must also deliver with their body the intent of the music they've chosen to skate to. As a musician and a storyteller, you wouldn't tell a wistful story about lost love while playing music suited to a story of triumph and revenge. It's the same thing with skating.
