2025 US Nats Mens FS PBP - Wichita Quadmen

[Belsornia]

Did any skater ever move to Amodio and start doing better in competition?

 

[Lizziebeth]

Martynov having a really rough time He looks very sluggish.

I was hoping that moving to Amodio would help him get some life in his skating.

 

[Rukia]

I remember 0 about what just happened

 

[peibeck]

Martynov: Good attack, but he can't seem to control the energy. Needs a lot more attention to the details. Definitely seems like he could be skating to anything. The costume was the coolest thing about the program.

 

[Karen-W]

Why does this make me just laugh?

LOL - I dunno. I'm all up for a good site selection debate and I know my comment was thread-police-y, but this debate on the last day of the competition when there's nothing to be done now is so obnoxious.

 

[Sally1214]

My gosh, Daniel's closing spin had to be THE slowest spin done by ANYONE who managed to remain upright! Kind of fascinating really ..

 

[missing]

Okay? And? Should they have cancelled the championship because people watch football?

No. Of course not.

They should have cancelled the football game.

 

[Baby Yoda On Skates]

No. Of course not.

They should have cancelled the football game.

When I'm dictator of the world, football will be the first thing to go.

 

[LilJen]

Good Lord, Naumov showing some actual expression…and then he ditches it for jump prep mode.

 

[Rukia]

I mean this is relatively clean by Naumov standards

 

[her grace]

Is it a bad sign that I made it halfway through his skate before realizing this is not Kapeikis skating.

 

[flyingsit]

Naumov has fantastic ice coverage

 

[Rukia]

why is us nats always his best competition

 

[bardtoob]

Please stop the yelling over Michelle Kwan's music!

I was just about to ask why anyone goes to Amodio

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I can see Maxim moving into the top six with that

 

[mtnskater]

Now that’s some compelling excellent skating from Naumov!! Give him all the points Quad Schmad!

 

[annie720]

Very nice, Maxim!

 

[Karen-W]

Well, apart from the pop on the 4S at the start, that was really great from Max. But, I really hope the last 6 guys bring it and outskate him.

 

[floridaice]

Wow -- so glad he didn't let the 4S pop impact the rest of the program.

 

[JoannaLouise]

That first 3a really was glorious.

 

[Firedancer]

Really good after the mistake. I wish he would skate like this more often

 

[once_upon]

When I'm dictator of the world, football will be the first thing to go.

Sadly, I don't think that would increase skating viewership either.

Many of you are getting your return to classical music this afternoon.

 

[Citlali]

Maxim really sold that

 

[tangerine dream]

why is us nats always his best competition

It seems like there is a whole category of US skaters who only skate well at nationals.

 

[ilovesalchows]

I really love Naumov, too bad about te quad. He needed it to leap onto the podium.

At least I hope he did and the rest of this event isn’t cringey.

 

[peibeck]

Naumov: Pop on the sal aside, he fought for the whole thing. A bit out of gas during the footwork and final spin, but a superb effort. He's developed pretty nicely on the artistic side as well.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

After the first pop, Ben declared his world‘s chances over. I really hope that one pop will be enough to drop you out of the top three in this event.

 

[Vagabond]

The female Japanese commentator has calmed down about triple axels. I guess her astonishment about them is reserved to the first flight.

Also, how Naumov got negative GOE on his double salchow when Savary did not eludes me.

I am glad Naumov is in first place overall at the moment. He deserves to be.

 

[Sally1214]

OMG .... in case you didn't know it, the NBC crew just said that ILIA MALININ is in the next group!!!
