2024 Grand Prix Final - Men SP: “While My Quadster Gently Weeps”

[tony]

4T quite possibly <<
3A which is just his money jump down.

Damnit.

 

[Citlali]

Everybody is broken-hearted... or maybe is just me

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Well at least Kevin can't finish any worse than 6th.

Not for lack of trying.

 

[Rukia]

what if we made jumps illegal for kevin

 

[floridaice]

Oh Kevin -- keep that smile on your face

 

[Karen-W]

Oh, lordy... Disaster program for Kevin.

 

[rfisher]

So Kevin is caving in for the home crowd. Always a 50% probability he will.

 

[Hedwig]

what a shame.
the toe did not lift up at all so he had no chance to finish the rotation.
the axel is probably then the follow up mistake
I would have been so happy for him to have a great skate at home.

 

[Braulio]

Pour quoi Kevin???

Europeans 2020 Short Program disaster revisit

at least he'll survive since all six skate the free

 

[tony]

Pattern for the Lutz was indeed changed, but it didn't help here.

TES is going to be quite bad, but not on epic meltdown level.

 

[MacMadame]

gymnastics on ice!

 

[dupa]

Feckin' headcase. Jeebus

 

[once_upon]

I guess we know which Kevin showed up today. I'd hadn't seen this program this season. I'm bad luck?

 

[MacMadame]

TES is going to be quite bad, but not on epic meltdown level.

Yes, you can see him fighting for everything in spite of the jump issues.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Mark's French accent is cute.

 

[Rukia]

ok but you know what, last year's Kevin would have stopped caring after missing those jumps, but he stayed in it and gave a performance for the home crowd so I give him credit for that

 

[Karen-W]

and the side aerial - gymnastics on ice!!!!

That's not a knee slide - that's a butt slide.

 

[Sally1214]

RATS!!! I was afraid this might happen. Oh, Kevin, what could have been .....

 

[tony]

That all said, there's a freedom about him this year and he didn't give up on the program at all. I know he doesn't want to disappoint the people here that came to see him, but he would've let it all go last year had that first mistake happened.

Whatever the result, there will always be Skate America and the absolute shock that it was after he DID. NOT. JUMP. in practices.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Sylvia Fontana didn't age at all for decades until she started coaching Aymoz.

 

[slicekw]

Argh Kevin. I hope he skates it beautifully in Worlds.

 

[Spikefan]

Mistakes but he isn’t melting down, I consider that progress.

 

[beckab81]

That's not a knee slide - that's a butt slide.

He had 2 clear knee slides, and I'm just ignoring everything hat happened during the jumping passes.

 

[Karen-W]

I am two boxes away from a blackout - but I don't think I'm going to get it. I don't recall a single bubble braid/man bun today and Sylvia SHOULD give us frosty/mad coach for that performance from Kevin, but she won't because she's an emotional hamburger like my mom.

 

[Frau Muller]

Kevin back to amoldó

 

[tony]

Deduction for going over the music, too, I think. Nope. Safe there

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Mark is showing off his french.

Ted is still trying to learn how to say Miura

 

[MacMadame]

It's kind of frosty .... for HER

 

[MacMadame]

It's kind of frosty .... for HER

IOW, let's count it.

 

[slicekw]

I’ve got bubble braid/man bun and kinda want to ask about subbing in male perfectly threaded eyebrows, cuz wow are Kevin’s PERFECT.
