2026 Olys Mens FS PBP - Habemus Pop-am

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I can’t remember, was there a poll? If so, everyone has lost.

Heartbroken for Ilia

 

[Rob]

Now all the other guys are like wait I didn’t even need to try all those quads?

 

[slicekw]

Poor guy. Simone standing for him. She knows the feeling. This is whatever’s been going on since December. Argh.

 

[Wyliefan]

Raf must be reliving Beijing 2018 right now.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Sick to your stomach worthy

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Browning is even more gutted now

 

[alj5]

I thought he might be messy based on the nervous energy at the top, but not a complete and utter melt down.

 

[LilJen]

Holy shit. Just got home from work and tuned in about 2 minutes ago…

 

[Karen-W]

There is no way he's medaling. Not looking at the TES.

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

 

[floridaice]

He looks in pain

He's looked like that for several months

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Oh man... Look at him at the end of the program. I can't help but believe the injury rumors may have been true after all.

Here's my thing.

If he were really that injured, I don't think he would have gone for 7 quads and I don't think he'd look so shocked.

 

[slicekw]

Did Denis Ten make this happen?

 

[tangerine dream]

Am I hallucinating?

 

[MacMadame]

He had a 30 point lead over Shun after the SP. TES is 27 points behind and the PCS is capped.

38+

 

[Karen-W]

He's calling out the USFS for not sending him to Beijing 4 years ago. Good for him!

Oh my God. 8th overall.

 

[Aceon6]

Watch NBC spin it… Ilia has been skating with three broken legs and broken down boots.

 

[susieB129]

I'm not accepting his blaming being left off the Beijing team.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Wow, 15th Pl. in the free.

 

[Marta24]

The Olympics have really their own rules. Ilia is young enough to go for another Olympics. I hope he will give it another try.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Should not have gone for the quad axel

I don't think that made any difference.

 

[Elisheba]

Wait, Shun has a medal?

 

[barbk]

Wow, 15th Pl. in the free.

fair judging.

 

[Private Citizen]

Hopefully this gives him purpose and won’t be too damaging to mental health. One of the worst collapses in history. Wish he had gone in 2022 to experience the pressure.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

at least he has team gold

probably not much of a consolation but that's what it is.

 

[Perky Shae Lynn]

POOR KID

 

[itsartemis]

He is 8th. 15th in the free. This is crazy.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Aw, Shaidorov being so humble and gracious. He seems like such a sweet guy.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Wow, look at the overall results for short program placements and free program placements, it’s like a plate of scrambled eggs.
