2026 Olys Team Event PBP Day 2 - Will It Be YAYmoz? Or GO!GO!lev?

[just tuned in]

JUMP MAP HAS BEEN TAKEN OFF lol

Back! It is kind of useful to see if they travel on their spins.

 

[Braulio]

Wow Gogolev delivering! guy looks confident an sure he has to be

 

[rfisher]

My brother and sister are in Milan (they are going to watch hockey tomorrow) and they are receiving constant mails telling them that there are still tickets available (including FS) they are so mad that the prices are unreasonable


I wish I could spend calories just from watching the olympics (more than the ones I use sitting here on my recliner )

Which is why I wouldn't pay to attend when I can watch on TV and have a better seat. I'd go to speed skating events or alpines and board events, but not figure skating unless there was some skater I really really wanted to see live.

 

[Karen-W]

Soooo NBC just automatically gave GB 1 point for Appleby. Assuming the men won’t men?

It could be that they just give the lowest # of points available and work upwards with the points as each skater goes.

 

[tony]

Hopefully Kevin Aymoz is somewhere not watching this.

All Gogolev needs is to place (probably) 3 spots higher than Aymoz here to make the Final.

 

[Private Citizen]

I think Lajoie and Lagha better get ready for the free dance. Clutch performance from Gogolev. This could score very well.

 

[her grace]

Already better than anything Sadovsky did last time

 

[CassAgain]

Go Go gauntlet thrown!

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh, well done!!

 

[Colonel Green]

Good job, Stephen. Couldn't really have asked for more than that.

 

[Citlali]

Stephen

Are the men actually bringing it?

The "jump map" reminds me of the game snake I used to play in my Nokia 3100, I keep waiting for the little thing to eat to appear

 

[my little pony]

team canada got jumpers with little paint splatters, they are cute!

 

[LilJen]

It's not NBC. They add the points as of the time of the skater finishing on the 'official' graphic.

Hm. Well, they’ve never seen Bad Kevin, then…

 

[susieB129]

I'm surprised how much I liked Gogolev! Way to step up to the moment!

 

[Messalina]

Yes Canada !!!

 

[Lara]

Yes yes yes!!! GoGo!!!!!!!

 

[tangerine dream]

It could be that they just give the lowest # of points available and work upwards with the points as each skater goes.

Yes, after Chock/Bates skated second to last yesterday and were in first place the graphic showed that they earned 9 points. Of course that later changed to 10 after Fear/Gib went behind them.

 

[skateycat]

Does the feed with Johnny and Tara have the jump map? If it doesn’t, I may switch to the other feed.

 

[thvu]

Wow, Gogolev really pushed out for that performance, kept the speed up. Still issues with holding and releasing tension, finish, expression, but that was a great performance and showed alot of improvement. He definitely put down a performance that could play spoiler to some other countries, and did his job to get Team Canada into the final.

Oh, and two quads too.

 

[peibeck]

GoGo almost showed some personality!

 

[tony]

Hm. Well, they’ve never seen Bad Kevin, then…

It's nothing to do with that. It's showing the minimum points the country has as of the time of finishing the skate/getting their score. They can't assign 10 to the first skater and then have the team lose points the whole way through.

I lost my internet connection.

ETA - It’s back but I missed the end of Gogolev’s program.

ETA2 - Was able to rewind and see it!!

 

[her grace]

great team performance overall from Canada, everyone did their bit

 

[Lilia A]

Canadian man not bombing the short in the team event for the first time in 12 years.

 

[my little pony]

what does the writing on this bowling shirt say?

 

[beckab81]

awesome job by Gogolev. Seems like he’s finally uninjured and showing the promise everyone saw when he was a little kid

 

[just tuned in]

The score tracker does not say the element?
