FSU Watch Party: 2010 Olympic Games Men SP - SAT, JUL 11th, 1pm CDT / 8pm CET

[Jeschke]

KvdP got no love from J9! Not at all

 

[her grace]

Van der Perren

-3a tipped forward on landing
-3f-3t
-3-something I missed the take-off
-this program isn't holding my attention. Costume's pretty cool, though.

 

[alchemy void]

Dislike Of Personality is the secret sixth PCS category.

I thought looks/costuming was the sixth category and personality seventh.

 

[SmallFairy]

We may both be hot for Schultheiss, but I totally disagree with you here. He did the elements, but this program was extremely weak in PCS. The basics weren't there, no transitions, no speed, not much performance, very basic choreography. Guys in the lower part of the penultimate group had better programs than this.

And this is coming from someone who adores Weir's Swan and Otonal programs from 2006.

You spoke for me!

 

[Jeschke]

So Verner was amongst the Top3 of my fav programs with Borodulin and Amodio here

 

[aftershocks]

Johnny's best programs were The Swan and Yunona and Avos.

It didn't matter what program or music Johnny skated to. Don'tcha know he later got backlash for the 2006 The Swan Olympics program as being too effeminate, even though it placed second and arguably should have been in first ahead of Plushy. The total backlash came after he tanked his fp at that Olympics? He began receiving death threat letters, and he thought about quitting the sport altogether.

Plus, Johnny had numerous great programs: Dr. Zhivago, Valse Triste, My Way, Imagine, Rondo Capriciosso, Otonal, Poker Face, Love Is War, et al.

 

[Aerobicidal]

Zorba the West Hollywooder.

 

[alchemy void]

The taste level of those last two programs is just amazingly awful. I don't know whether to be impressed or question my sanity for continuing to follow skating for ten years after this event.

Fortunately Verner is up next.

 

[Kateri]

Tomas kinda looks like he has 2 huge packs of Camels in his back pockets.

 

[Jeschke]

A classic Huth skater
And a classic CZE skater

 

[rosetintmyworld]

Verner in those pants

 

[casken]

KVDP's had almost no transitions, but got a bunch of 6.00s from our panel.

I guess marking higher as the event goes on is a thing for this panel too?

 

[Colonel Green]

Passing the torch to Brezina.

 

[Hanna]

I had completely forgotten Verner skated to Zorba the Greek.

Ah, splattity splat

 

[Jeschke]

Music

 

[Aerobicidal]

Fortunately Verner is up next.

I have never seen this program before, and I'm now realizing the Verner did gay sailor, golf lesbian, and Deliverance. There is no emoji to express my feelings about that.

 

[Jeschke]

The mid-posing! Epic!
@alchemy void could not have pulled it off any better

 

[alchemy void]

So Verner was amongst the Top3 of my fav programs with Borodulin and Amodio here

You're kidding me.

Give me KVDP over this any day.

 

[rfisher]

Verner being Verner. He played himself so well. Czech men don't let other skaters beat them. They take care of that all by themselves.

 

[her grace]

Verner

-2?t Popped quad. Disaster
-3a splat More disaster
-not a lot of time to recover before the next jumping pass
-3f-3t
-He's still smiling through

 

[Jeschke]

You're kidding me.

Am I? Watch my PCS

 

[alchemy void]

I think Bobek's 98 SP is the only skater that has ever successfully pulled off Zorba.

 

[Jeschke]

Feather king next

 

[meggonzo]

I think Bobek's 98 SP is the only skater that has ever successfully pulled off Zorba.

What about Surya?

 

[Colonel Green]

Those colours definitely say "Firebird" to me.

 

[alchemy void]

Am I? Watch my PCS

Even higher than judge 9.

I really liked judge 2's PCS for Verner. Reward him for his basics, but not the mediocre program and performance.

 

[Hanna]

All that black.

 

[Aerobicidal]

All that black.

All that Wang.

 

[Jeschke]

Well the twizzles were better than any we have seem from Nikita so far

 

[alchemy void]

What about Surya?

My expertise of Surya is incomplete prior to 93. I'll have to watch it, but I'm confident it was just as good as Bobek's.
