Who knows, maybe Evgeni S. will have an outside chance of joining two of them in Oberstdorf if he skates really well again here?
Brain spasm by me, whoops.

ETA that I believe the FS replay link should be the same except that /figure-skating/ replaces the /ice-skating/ part of the URL?

He can't since he was one of the 2 Russian men who made the FS at Worlds. It'll have to be one of the Stamina Boys.

 

[Vagabond]

Kolyada starting before Nguyen, Russian Man #2 starting first of all.

O tempora, o mores!

 

[Karen-W]

I'm not sure I'll be able to make it through the men. I'm feeling very tired and, unfortunately, I can't just sleep ALL day tomorrow - annoying training class for work that was only available tomorrow and not again until mid-May. Granted if I can push through the men, I'll still get at least 8 hours of sleep but that also requires me waking up and the way my arm is feeling, there might not be a guarantee of that happening, lol.

 

[Frau Muller]

And it’s Pooh Time!!!!

Too bad about Rizzo out. I wish that they could’ve granted Yuma Kagiyama temporary Italian citizenship...to see him here.

 

[Frau Muller]

Roman’s chance to make a big splash!

 

[Immortelle]

Gearing up for the group 1 splatfest!

 

[rfisher]

I hope Kolyada feels no real pressure and skates his FS to perfection. I want to see it clean one more time this season. He really, really should use it again next season. It is by far the best program he has ever had. He won't beat the quad boys, but he could sneak into a bronze Olympic medal if he skates it to perfection (in my dreams).

His SP, OTOH, can go. I don't think it really suits him.

Semenenko has had a pretty good debut season. He's a work in progress, but he and Mishin can be very pleased with what he's accomplished.

 

[MacMadame]

What is Simon blathering on about? He's talking about maintaining leads before anyone has skated.

 

[allezfred]

I hope Kolyada feels no real pressure and skates his FS to perfection.

That might be an issue skating his free in a short.

 

[marbri]

I did not know that Nam was coached by Stojko? Is this recent?

 

[YourBorneo]

Not-Mark with these pronunciations like Nam Na-GOO-yen. I can’t.

 

[Colonel Green]

The lead from the ladies' event, presumably.

 

[rfisher]

I'm projecting ahead because I'm less thrilled with his short.

 

[Frau Muller]

Davai, Genya!!!!

Got his two quads!!!!

3ax tipped a little forward but gets it done!

I’m missing Mrs Mishin’s cute reactions.

 

[rfisher]

Well, the boy isn't as elegant as Aliev or as pretty as Ignatov, but he gets the job done which is why he's here and they aren't.

 

[Colonel Green]

Semenenko really needs to get some polish, if some of the other Russian men land their jumps ( ) he doesn't have a ton else at present. Take inspiration from his training mate.

 

[Colonel Green]

Roman wishes he was skating well enough to be the American national champion last year.

 

[rfisher]

if some of the other Russian men land their jumps ( )

And therein lies the problem.

Well, yea Roman!

 

[Colonel Green]

Now he just needs to duck the Q from the tech panel.

 

[mjb52]

Roman is just endearing.

 

[Frau Muller]

Roman very good. Prefer Keegan...but not bad. Well done, Canada.

 

[Colonel Green]

I assume he got hit for a UR on the combination.

 

[Frau Muller]

How FA can he go?

 

[Colonel Green]

Adam outdid Evgeni in the crouch on landing.

 

[mjb52]

Japan could make up quite a bit of ground here, not b/c Semenenko is bad but b/c their skaters are so good and Semenenko's ceiling is only so high.

 

[Colonel Green]

The axis on that Axel.

Oh man, awesome step sequence!

 

[allezfred]

I would expect no less from a French skater than a step sequence to light sabre sounds and the Imperial March.

 

[MacMadame]

Loving this program from Adam. He's usually fun to watch.

The lead from the ladies' event, presumably.

I thought so too but then he said something about Hanyu and that's why I was WTF?
