2026 Olys Mens FS PBP - Habemus Pop-am

[MacMadame]

Tech dropped by 10 so I guess they did

It's not coming up in the tracker then. I've been assuming all the URs have been called as q because of that.

 

[Lara]

Darn it.

 

[marbri]

I remember thinking it was on quite early compared to most of the other skaters

Must have happened when I blinked then

 

[Rob]

Gumennik has a nice look on the ice - I found myself wishing he could have switched countries the last 4 years. Maybe he’d have a personality to add to his tech if he’d been competing all these years.

 

[umronnie]

We can tell you are tired
Who picks such music??

 

[Desperado]

Kyrylo.

 

[Spikefan]

I hate that Marsak had to go after bleeping Russia.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

 

[Colonel Green]

Another tough skate.

 

[slicekw]

Kyrylo Marsak

Music: I’m Tired (Long Version) by Labrinth, Zendaya; I’m Tired (ft. Zendaya) Bonus Track by Labrinth, Zendaya; The Feels by Labrinth, Zendaya

He’s TIRED!

Not Madeline Kahn tired.
I’m enjoying the music, sorry his jumps are lacking and his choreo misses some great opportunities to act this song out.

 

[Karen-W]

Ooof. Kyrylo, like Max, had his moment in the short program. This is a rough start.

 

[terisa]

Petr has excellent old-school Russian jump technique, the same kind of Ilia's.

I think it would be interesting to divide the men's field by Russian coach or non- Russian coach, and see if the stylistic differences show a pattern in results...

 

[Matryeshka]

DAVVVVAYY

This is another skater where the victory is being here, and he'll always have that amazing short program.

 

[peibeck]

Ugh, why couldn't this be the song that writers didn't want us to hear???

 

[tangerine dream]

He’s TIRED!

Not Madeline Kahn tired.
I’m enjoying the music, sorry his jumps are lacking and his choreo misses some great opportunities to act this song out.

He tired of his country being bombed by f*cking Russia.

 

[Private Citizen]

The curse is back. Kyrylo . This will drop like a rock and probably won’t be much better than Naumov in the free given the pops.

 

[Desperado]

Skating after a Russian who did well, knowing your dad is on the front line fighting to stay alive must be so difficult. Poor kid.

 

[Lana K]

Having Petr in the leader’s chair while Kyrylo skates is really unfortunate

 

[Karen-W]

I'm as big of a supporter of the Ukrainians as the next person, but I'm kind of over their skaters picking music like this to remind us about the war. We're all tired of it too and would like to see it end.

Kyrylo Marsak
Coach: A. Mayer Virtanen, O. Tumanovskyi
Music: I’m Tired, The Feels by Labrinth, Zendaya

3Lz - opened up a planned quadruple
4S - fall
3A+2A+2A+SEQ
1A
Flying Change Foot Camel Spin 2
3Lz+2T
3Lo
Choreo Sequence
3F+2T
Step Sequence 3
Flying Sit Spin 4
Change Foot Combo Spin 3

Unable to continue with the momentum he created in the short program unfortunately today. Just couldn't quite find a comfort zone in the program after the mistake on the opening jump.

SP: 86.89 = 11th Place
-1.00 = Falls
FS: 137.28 = 13th Place
Total: 224.17 = 9th Place

 

[Matryeshka]

This is the ONLY skater who gets to skate to this song. For him and his situation I really do understand why he chose it.

 

[slicekw]

Gumennik has a nice look on the ice - I found myself wishing he could have switched countries the last 4 years. Maybe he’d have a personality to add to his tech if he’d been competing all these years.

I was just thinking now is a good opportunity to defect to somewhere if possible and get some good coaching. Imagine if he started skating along with Deniss. Lambiel could do something with him.

 

[Asli]

This music has sapped every bit of joy of life from me. No wonder Marsak couldn't skate!

 

[flyingsit]

Having Petr in the leader’s chair while Kyrylo skates is really unfortunate

Having him in the building is really unfortunate IMO

 

[Karen-W]

Like help his quads & 3a slowly ebb away???

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Is it mathematically possible (based on their BV planned elements) for anyone to break into the top 3 or is the podium a lock even if the top 3 have bad (for them) skates?

I mean, it's certainly mathematically possible any time. All skaters have to do is pop and the base value disappears like I'm hoping all this snow outside is about to do.

GO, GOGOLEV!!!!

I knew someone would go there. True. But the personality fit might be nice. Ok, lets send him to Raf.

Wow, sucks to have to be bummed out by sad music about their friends and families being bombed every night. Maybe one day they'll prioritize your feelings and skate to something perky just for you.
