    Me too! I know he didn't skate well, but I am curious about the program as a whole. Perhaps by tomorrow?

    Terrible colour and cut. Not a fan of the ab-jazzling either.

    Thank you so much for the PBP!

    The link needed a warning label, that dress is so bright.

    I loved Suzuki's dress. Kozuka looks so much more balanced over his blades than last season: I'm glad he resolved his boot issues.

    So odd to see a protocol of Chan's where the GOE's and falls looked like Liam Firus' BC Summerskate performance. (He still managed to get higher TES than Weir at Finlandia )

    And according to Japanese new report, Mao got 0 on one of her spins. That explains the low TES
    She looks a little bigger (in a good way) than she did last year. I hope she has a great year.

    Thanks for the links.
    Wow! Generally Japanese is not a people who exaggerate things too much, but I would call the beauty of these photos already "art".

    Ashley's dress would look a lot better a) if her hair were darker again and b) if she didn't have so much of a tan (I know it's light, but it's obvious because she's very fair). I was expecting something a lot more like her SP costume from last season. Hoping they make some tweaks to that costume!

    I can't believe Plushenko didn't fall on that double toe! That was crazy tilted. You haven't seen tilted until you see that. Then than mistake on the double axel. He almost saved it but no-"fall". Similar to the Russian test skates in all aspects of the choreo. Rotated and landed two quads with some problem but done and then the first triple axel was great. Too bad about the second single one. Impressive regarding his age with the mistakes.

    Ashley's freeskate:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJMDk...hannel&list=UL

    I like it for the most part but the dress is gross and she has way too many spots where she's stopping to pull faces and pose for the judges.

    Disaster skate for Patrick but that LP could be absolutely gorgeous!!
    Inspiring Mirai Nagasu!

    Finally! It was a disaster, but wow! I really love this program!
    It's already my favorite program from him. Love his new costume, too!

    Great skate, but it reminds me of Joannie's program. Like her costume, though.

    I'm sure he will be far better in the season!

    I hope he will do this program or another program with those jumps at the level of 2012 euros. But that is such a high level!

    Surprised to see no reference in online sources to the extended usages of this term. Original usage: "military signal that lights are to be extinguished for the night." Also, "death, time to die."

    Perhaps the term used in reference to competitive performance is extrapolated from the "death" usage. IOW, Dai "killed it." He turned the "lights out" with his winning performance. Sure this performance is not the best he can do, but its better than good for the start of the new season. Plus he has that extra something that can't be taught.
