2025 4CC - Men Free: “Crash landing on UR”

[Karen-W]

Geez, I thought skating was popular in Korea now.

I'm not sure how popular the men are compared to the women. It's still a growing sport there. They can't even produce home-grown pairs or dance teams.

Chris is, correctly, concerned about the music choice for this FS.

 

[Rukia]

skaters i am begging you to stop skating to songs like unsteady, fall on me, etc

 

[MacMadame]

And now we get my kind of music. Though Unsteady is not a good theme for a FS

 

[genevieve]

"Unsteady" - is Darian considering switching to represent Canada?

 

[Karen-W]

Since the early 2000s, if not earlier

1997 was when the British treaty with China ended and Hong Kong was returned to Chinese control.

They've scheduled the Womens FS for prime time. that is where they are strongest.

Primetime on the West Coast, but it starts at 11am KST.

Never fear ANL is here

 

[myhoneyhoney]

I like the song but not a good theme for skating

 

[genevieve]

gah pant strap came loose

 

[JoannaLouise]

Darian getting a lot stronger as the program goes on, but that loose strap on his pants is terrifying me.

 

[myhoneyhoney]

Omg his lace!!!!! Ok, strap. Eeeeeekkkkk. Are they going to stop this?

 

[MacMadame]

Primetime on the West Coast, but it starts at 11am KST.

It starts at 6:30 am here.

 

[Karen-W]

Eeek - Darian's boot strap has come undone. I think he's done with his jumps, so I'm guessing the referee won't stop him.

Julia Sauter used this music for a few seasons and I quite liked it. He's too much of a showman for the repetitiveness and no rises or falls. I felt like it was jump jump jump jump rush jump jump jump and he can do a lot more than that.

 

[Rukia]

i really wish the ref would stop him with that loose strap

 

[Karen-W]

It starts at 6:30 am here.

No, it starts at 11:25am local time, which is 6:25pm PST tomorrow night.

 

[slicekw]

Darian getting a lot stronger as the program goes on, but that loose strap on his pants is terrifying me.

Same here!

 

[Rukia]

see look how fun he is??? why is he skating to sludge?????

 

[Sally1214]

That wasn't a bad skate by Darian at all. Aw, he's celebrating at centre ice. How cute is that? I like him.

 

[MacMadame]

No, it starts at 11:25am local time, which is 6:25pm PST tomorrow night.

This has been the worst comp for my time zone abilities.

 

[misskarne]

Well done for Darian, that strap was anxiety-inducing, but he got stronger as he went on. Would love to see a little more character for next year's FS.

 

[Karen-W]

This has been the worst comp for my time zone abilities.

I am a frequent user of the World Clock on my phone's clock app.

 

[slicekw]

Damn if he didn’t skate better after he popped that strap.

 

[MacMadame]

I am a frequent user of the World Clock on my phone's clock app.

I did too but I got about 50% of them wrong by a lot.

Also, now I can't watch the Womens FS live because I am going to a dinner for my bike club. I would not have paid for that if I had set up my calendar correctly

 

[MacMadame]

Fist pump!

 

[Sally1214]

Darian is happy. So, I'm happy for him. We all need an excited, enthusiastic K/C reaction.

ETA: Gosh, he looks like he'd be a lot of fun at a party.

 

[Rukia]
