Jun has withdrawn..

 

[Karen-W]

I shall be sleeping through the first group. Tempted to sleep through part of the 2nd, but someone's gotta medal.
Effing insomnia has me wide awake when I'd rather be dozing.

You're leaving in Invalid Element for the FS?

Also - with men, we've got Illusion/Tights Weird Color and Tights Over/Boot Covers?

I am half asleep so I just looked for "except Mens" on my sheet.

ETA okay, fixed it. New link above but also here: https://mfbc.us/m/frgbwdp

 

[Karen-W]

LOL - tight audience shots so we don't see just how empty the arena really is.

 

[Aceon6]

I shall be sleeping through the first group. Tempted to sleep through part of the 2nd, but someone's gotta medal.

I should have. Nothing like getting up pre-dawn to 1k+ waiting for the non existent stream. But I’m here now and Mark is chattering away reminding us that men gonna men.

 

[Firedancer]

Good morning all!

 

[tony]

LOL - tight audience shots so we don't see just how empty the arena really is.

It's not that bad today. Still think Skate America was worse.

It's 1PM on a Saturday in Finland, maybe everyone is still in bed hungover.

 

[Karen-W]

Oh, I agree, definitely worse than SkAm - my guess is that there may be 2k there?

 

[Aceon6]

Dr. V paid for 2 new programs and he couldn’t afford a new shirt?

 

[Karen-W]

LOLOL - anyone else dying at Mark mentioning the Tallinn Trophy results where the men realllllly really menned?

 

[Karen-W]

Coach cam to start off with!

 

[Belsornia]

Dr. V paid for 2 new programs and he couldn’t afford a new shirt?

He was inspired by Ioulia Chchetinina's booty shorts.

 

[Karen-W]

I see the Pink Ladies!

 

[MacMadame]

Mark says it's an Olympic-sized rink. I guess hockey in Europe plays on a bigger rink.

 

[tony]

Pretty decent attempt on the 4T, even though it's <<

37 years old, people. I would think he would end up the oldest to ever land it if he does?

 

[Karen-W]

The random airbrushed handprint over his heart is something else on this shades of grey shirt.

 

[TAHbKA]

Virtanen manages to be a junior skater at the age of 37. Thta's impressive.
The judges' side is packed today, the rest not so much, but still only in Finland you can fill a rink to watch the Finnish men...

 

[TAHbKA]

Who would have thought the SFAW would be from Finland?

 

[MacMadame]

Is this music from a movie?

 

[Karen-W]

@MacMadame - surely Suntsev qualifies for 'very literal costume', right?

 

[MacMadame]

@MacMadame - surely Suntsev qualifies for 'very literal costume', right?

Yes

 

[MacMadame]

I assume none of Dr V's pops were elegant, btw. (I was doing something else and not watching. Bad me.)

 

[Karen-W]

Is this music from a movie?

Not as far as Shazam & Google are informing me.

 

[tony]

The posture bothers me just as yesterday. He leans forward and pumps even with his head when he's doing crossovers.

That said, there's some fairly decent choreography in this program.

 

[Firedancer]

Nude gloves

 

[Sally1214]

Hi everyone
Looks like I only missed Dr. V. Seems as if he didn't do well. And Jun has withdrawn? Darn ... was hoping to see him at the GPF. Looks like a better crowd in attendance today.

 

[YukiNieve]

Nobunari Oda is 37 now.
