2022 Worlds Mens FS - Numero Uno

[Rukia]

Keegan throws everything into his skating, including his falls :eep:

 

[Colonel Green]

Oh dear, I really wish he could get the quad Lutz in competition at some point.

 

[Wyliefan]

Opens with a splat. And then another splat.

 

[MsZem]

He's like Joubert, if Joubert was enjoyable.

They're both enjoyable.

I can't say I agree with Adam getting (slightly) higher PCS than Kevin Aymoz.

 

[her grace]

So 2 spots for France and Canada

Wish Keegan was skating better

 

[Ananas Astra]

More Jean DuJardin!

Actually, a friend of mine I met online through a German skating fb group totally lost it yesterday: "Was that the actor from 'The Artist'?! Jean Dujardin?"
He had no idea Pechalat was married to him .

 

[Karen-W]

Well, Keegan finally got his Canadian title, so I hope he can retire a happy guy (I know he hasn't said this is his last season, but he's 30, so I'm guessing he's done).

And yay for France! They keep 2 men for next season!

 

[ChelleC]

He's like Joubert, if Joubert was enjoyable.

Ahem, Joubert was always enjoyable to look at.

 

[cocotaffy]

The shirt, the music ... Can't get anymore Canadian that this

 

[thvu]

Uhg, Messing’s hands drive me crazy. They’re always cupped or clawed.

 

[SlavicaK]

Is Roman going to place higher than Keegan?!

 

[Louis]

Not sure I understand the strategy of a Hail Mary attempt at 4Lz (minimum <). The fall on the quad toe was predictable. Sadovsky should beat this. If judged fairly, this should go 8th or even 9th behind Zandron, but I suspect he’ll get some skate order bonus.

 

[Carolla5501]

Considering the changes in Keegan’s life - marriage baby etc. something tells me he may be moving on. But he’s always so much fun to watch even when he’s not skating well

 

[Colonel Green]

Well, Keegan finally got his Canadian title, so I hope he can retire a happy guy (I know he hasn't said this is his last season, but he's 30, so I'm guessing he's done).

He's talked about doing one more season to be able to go to World Team Trophy.

 

[Vagabond]

Schmaltzy, hammy Messing returns.

 

[4rkidz]

So 2 spots for France and Canada

Wish Keegan was skating better

Camden is American

 

[Rukia]

Uhg, Messing’s hands drive me crazy. They’re always cupped or clawed.

Too much giant flag waving

 

[Wyliefan]

Sigh, really rough skate for Keegan. Keeps fighting to the end, though. The crowd is really with him, bless them!

 

[MsZem]

She was crafty and did it the day Prince Harry and Meghan Markle got married, maybe so nobody would notice

 

[Colonel Green]

Not sure I understand the strategy of a Hail Mary attempt at 4Lz (minimum <).

He landed in practice earlier in the week and it's been a jump he's been trying to integrate into competition for years. Only so many more opportunities.

 

[MacMadame]

Keegan MESSING CAN

Coach: Ralph Burghart
Music: Lullaby for an Angel, Home

Lumberjack top, black pants


4Z fall (More than -5 GOE haven't seen that before)
4T fall
3A + (left off the 1Eu+3S)
3Z+3T
FSSp 4 +
St Sq 3 +
4T+REP - 2ft then fall
3X1Eu+3S (there it is)
FCCoSp ?
2F
Ch Sq 1 ++
CCoSp 3

well that was a mess. Crowed loved it though.

 

[danafan]

If Keegan drops behind Roman then the worst Roman can do is 12th which would keep two spots for next year. If I did the math right.

 

[Karen-W]

He's talked about doing one more season to be able to go to World Team Trophy.

I think that might be a fool's dream. I doubt he can hold off Chiu - and if Gogolev or Sadovsky get on track, he won't be able to hold them off either.

 

[Lanie]

Keegan rotates so fast it’s shocking he’s ever landed things. I really enjoy watching him though.

 

[peibeck]

that 4z fall. I think I would have just laid there.

Yikes, Keegan's quads all off. Great crowd support, but def not his day.

 

[fsfann]

Can someone explain the logic of attempt9ing the quad lutz when you have had zero success in practice? Why not take it out and focus on a clean skate.... ugh.

 

[cocotaffy]

This crowd is eating up everything, post Covid enthusiasm and I love it. Keep it up

 

[marbri]

Is Roman going to place higher than Keegan?!

Certainly a surreal Championships for Canada in terms of results

To be honest I was expecting that skate from Keegan. I feel he has been hanging in there mentally and physically all season.

 

[Frau Muller]

Always a joy to see Keegan’s spins & transitions!
And now…another baby pic?

Soft power. Raising the sport's profile.
