2024 US Nats Men FS: Succession would be The Impossible Dream but Silver is Up For Grabs

[skatingguy]

And now a fall, and a pop. Things coming undone for Malinin now.

 

[floridaice]

he's done enough to win

 

[caseyedwards]

This is frightening!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

I'm gonna pretend this was the podium:
1. Camden
2. Max
3. Ilia
4. Jason

 

[Rukia]

Okay, a disaster for trying to send a message, but wow adding on that 3toe and actually rotating it was ballsy.

seriously i'm dying that was clearly him being mad

 

[tony]

That combo is going to save him a ton, but really-- review city should be in effect and his PCS should be low 80's at an absolute generous best.

 

[Karen-W]

Nationals FS just isn't his segment, but he'll still win because... well, 20 point lead from the SP and 3 successful quads.

 

[YourBorneo]

I know some Ilia fanatic is going to tell me I'm crazy, but the quads are looking short of rotation thus forth. The first two at least looked very tight to me.

This tech panel just reviews spins and pops to make sure they counted correctly.

 

[peibeck]

Ilia making sure everyone wins "ugly" this comp.

 

[skatingguy]

This is not a US Nationals to remember.

 

[Frau Muller]

ILIA! STILL MY CHAMP!!!

 

[canbelto]

Well he's still the eldest boy, but that was disappointing.

 

[tony]

ILIA! STILL MY CHAMP!!!

I thought he's a jerk

 

[Wyliefan]

Okay, a disaster for trying to send a message, but wow adding on that 3toe and actually rotating it was ballsy.

He always finds some way to fight back even when things go really bad. Gotta respect it.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Ilia making sure everyone wins "ugly" this comp.

Yeah, not a single good performance from the senior champions. Good thing some of the rest of the podiums were great.

 

[VALuvsMKwan]

I can't believe I've lived to see the day that so many FSU posters thought that US Skating's smiling prince was overscored.

 

[Jarrett]

This is not a US Nationals to remember.

It was a great crowd though!

 

[beckab81]

Well, Camden & Max were nice? And Jimmy Ma went pretty clean? I think those will be my take-aways from this one, because the rest is pretty awful.

 

[Aceon6]

Note to team Malinin, I like Sarah Everhardt’s program better.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Ashley and Adam get so confused when the favorites skate badly. It's like their script breaks and they can't tell what to do.

 

[tony]

Salchow as I suspected, not rotated fully.

4Lz<

 

[Rukia]

that 3z-3a-3t is going to entertain me for ages because it's just so funny

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Cursed Columbus

 

[PRlady]

LOL. We are officially 4/4 for terrible officiating at US Nats.

I’m not worried about Ilia. But Max and Camden totally robbed just goes with the ridiculous judging of ChoBat, the ladies’ farces and most of all Kam/O’Shea. What a farce.

 

[skatingguy]

Okay folks - just a little over 3 days to rest up for Four Continents.

 

[Wyliefan]

I can't believe I've lived to see the day that so many FSU posters thought that US Skating's smiling prince was overscored.

We CAN tell the difference between a good Jason performance and a bad one, believe it or not.

 

[tony]

92 PCS for that mess.

 

[Simone411]

Well, the skating Gods just gave Ilia Gold! and Jason Brown has Silver!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

I feel like Ilia is potentially in danger of timing his seasons wrong. We'll see how worlds goes.

 

[YourBorneo]

Succession (Flu Remix) with 91.68 PCS is the cherry on top of the ridiculous cake that is US Nationals.
