2024 Grand Prix Final - Men SP: “While My Quadster Gently Weeps”

[Theatregirl1122]

I'm not sure I've ever seen a top with only one cold shoulder before.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

And here we have it: we got a generation of men all of whom skate to generic emo ballads.

I blame tik tok.

 

[Karen-W]

This costume... BOOT covers even!

 

[susieB129]

It looks like he's wearing chaps. I can't...

 

[Spikefan]

Another view of the "evilllle woman"

I’m blaming her for the falls on that end of the rink.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Ilia thought everyone would be complaining about the faux hoodie all year, but then, after Adam's gansta paradise program + real hoodie, we all decided it was fine actually, so he had to go bigger.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Did Malinin get into a fight at a Lululemon outlet?

 

[slicekw]

When Ilia spins it looks like he’s wearing Ultramarine Blue Daisy Dukes.

 

[Rukia]

that combo had no flow but he's actually giving me something on the rest of this so whatever i'll allow it

 

[MacMadame]

It looks like he's wearing chaps. I can't...

and a diaper

You know, this I actually can believe, lol.

I think this is ilia’s best program by a LOT. Nice transitional stuff out of the jumps, but there’s still a noticeable lack of flow compared to most other men. He’s moving well, I wouldn’t say it’s complex movement but at least it it’s not prodding around the ice stalking the jumps.

Lutz may need a second look.

I really hate this outfit. It makes him look plump and even sloppier in his posture.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Turns out weird patchy costumes are lucky and that's why only Shadirov and Malinin were able to skate well.

 

[Allen]

It looks like he's got hot pants on over tights the way those pants are constructed.

 

[Aceon6]

So Ilia rolls outta bed and does that in his jammies. Got it.

 

[Karen-W]

Right? Plus, he's actually staying upright on his jumps, so who am I to complain?

 

[Theatregirl1122]

If someone tells him directly that it looks like he's wearing bootie shorts and chaps, he might actually get rid of this outfit.

 

[miffy]

I’m pleased Shaidorov did pretty well. Always nice when an alternate gets a chance and makes the most of it!

I was just thinking of Eman - 21 years ago? What happened, where did all the years go?!

 

[Citlali]

Ilia making me miss the fake hoodie

Love, love, love this short for him, it works so well, it suits him

 

[Allen]

I'll give Ilia that he had the best Ina Bauer I saw today

 

[Sally1214]

It's like Ilia should be in a completely different competition created just for him. IN. A. CLASS. BY. HIMSELF.

 

[Rukia]

so what yuma needs is more random strips of material on his costume

 

[JoannaLouise]

The blue boot covers are kind of cool? I guess? But why is he wearing a big blue diaper over his pants??

 

[Braulio]

Clean program, but that's it

 

[canbelto]

His costume looks a lot like the mesh rollup gym suits that are all the rage at my local gym.

 

[Allen]

This costume is giving Veruca Salt starring in Dune.

 

[beckab81]

If someone tells him directly that it looks like he's wearing bootie shorts and chaps, he might actually get rid of this outfit.

Don't forget that it looks like a diaper at times!

 

[rfisher]

Malinin's consistency is just amazing. He truly is a phenom.

 

[Kaz7714]

Look what we made happen by complaining about the hoodie.

My thoughts exactly .

 

[MacMadame]

I like the one shoulder peeking out, tbh
