2026 Olys Mens SP PBP - A Minion Ways to Dies (Irae)

[Kateri]

I do feel bad for Litvintsev, but that was the funniest combination I've ever seen. The comic timing was exquisite.

 

[her grace]

What a long wait to get his combo off!

 

[MsZem]

WTF is up with Litvintsev's jumps, it's not like he was on the blade-ruining podium after the TE!

 

[Aceon6]

Sorry to need catch up coaching, but I just got home. Besides Gogo, is there any must see skate from groups 1 or 2?

 

[Spikefan]

I wanted him to do well since he missed Euros but what the heck is this?!

 

[tangerine dream]

I'm not into serious Litvintsev. Bring back the voids.

 

[Karen-W]

The lean in the air on these jumps for Litvintsev - I'm surprised he's staying upright. OMG - that combo! He barely managed to get it off - love how Johnny & Tara were saying "do it! do it! do it!" almost willing him to tack the 1t on that very long landing edge.

 

[delayedaxel]

He seems to have an unusual approach to jumping.

 

[miffy]

That was such a weird skate. The delayed quad and delayed combo jump.

 

[Elisheba]

Litvintsev! we need your Joker program, get it together!

Vladimir Litvintsev
Coach: V. Butsaeva, E. Vlasov
Music: Leon by Eric Serra

4T - aborted the original setup, reset with tight landing
3A
Flying Camel Spin 4
3F+1T* - long delay between jumps trying to get combination, second jump is an invalid element
Change Foot Sit Spin 3 (2 after review)
Step Sequence 2
Change Foot Combo Spin 4 (3V after review)

A struggle throughout with his timing.

63.63 = 13th Place

I think that’s the first time I could really read a skaters mind. “Can I do a combo? I have to. Don’t put that leg down”.

 

[Asli]

Too much caution isn't a good thing Volodya! You should have just gone for a double toe right after the landing.

Sorry to need catch up coaching, but I just got home. Besides Gogo, is there any must see skate from groups 1 or 2?

Naumov

MAX!!!! And Marsak!!

Donovan was also quite good.

 

[Hedwig]

oi what a mess. he was even lucky that the judges did not mark his near set up of the quad as a jump box....

Max!

 

[Lara]

Wow was that strange. (((Litvintsev)))

 

[MacMadame]

So the combo doesn't count, right? Because it has to be 2 or 3, not a 1T

Max Naumov

 

[Spikefan]

Litvintsev! we need your Joker program, get it together!

We are not getting it.

 

[miffy]

He seems to have an unusual approach to jumping.

Yes, not sure if he wants to do it

 

[MsZem]

Obviously Naumov's.

I enjoyed Donovan Carillo

 

[Theatregirl1122]

The triple still counts. Just not the 1T.

 

[Asli]

Did he skate through the 4T and then do it later? Or was that choreo?

That can't have been the choreo IMO. There isn't a skating fan that hasn't though that should have been the 4t and the choreographer wouldn't have allowed that.

Marsak, he was fabulous!

 

[Karen-W]

Gumennik & Naumov for sure, also maybe Carrillo since he's qualified for the FS.

 

[Coco]

LOL at Tara and Johnny screaming "Do it, do it, do it!" at Litvintsev

Sue me, I love them, most of the time.

Kyroly Marsak for the KnC reaction for sure not only the skate
