2026 US Nationals Men's SP "Je Suis Malanin"

[terisa]

I really wanted to hate that program, due to massive overexposure to Free Bird in my youth. But I ended up loving it...

 

[Karen-W]

Pressure is on these next three guys to do what the women did last night in their SP.

And Torgy quickly ends any hope of a string of five perfect skates to close out the night.

 

[misskarne]

Welp. There goes Torgashev

 

[canbelto]

Ok Torgy has pretty nice spins.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

And there’s the Torgy we’ve had all season.

Johnny sounded like he was about to say “just like that, he lost his chance“ and instead he just stopped it “just like that” because he realized that didn’t make any sense for one fall for a US man in this field

 

[slicekw]

All these years Torgashev’s been almost there. Is it coaching, mental, physical? Anyone close enough to know?

 

[HaNguyen]

I wonder if they’ll put Torgy behind Naumov.

 

[Vagabond]

Dear Johny

Tomoki has been on everyone's list. Where have you been?

Signed,

FSU

According to , this is the first competition they've been to all season. NBC used AI avatars during the Grand Prix.

 

[canbelto]

Torgy looks a little like the young Ilia Kulik.

 

[~tapdancer~]

This isn't going to cut it. Too many small errors and one big one.

So Johnny reads here, but he only searches his name and reads those bits!

 

[clairecloutier]

Yayyyyy Tomoki!!! Skate of a lifetime for him.

 

[Lanie]

He was really into that footwork though at least so uhhh

 

[peibeck]

The basic skating skills are so gorgeous, but gotta get the 4T for a shot, Pizza King.

 

[floridaice]

I wonder if they’ll put Torgy behind Naumov.

I think so

 

[Citlali]

Did I expect Torgy to skate clean? No

Am I ? Yes

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Tara boldly saying that you have to be perfect if you want to make the US men’s Olympic team.

The idea that three entire men are going to be perfect for this entire competition feels like a real stretch for me

 

[jlai]

This isn't going to cut it. Too many small errors and one big one.

I thought Torgy moved well in the ice compared to Tomika though

Well, sure, but it's possible that Johnny's heard some insider talk about the men and knows that Torgy probably needed to skate clean in both programs to have any realistic chance of being selected for the team unless it's a splatfest and he miraculously still winds up 3rd overall.

I wonder if they’ll put Torgy behind Naumov.

Oh, I'm certain they will.

 

[my little pony]

youre taking a cruise!

and it stays 5 miles from the US coast at all times!

ewww

 

[flyingsit]

Torgy’s movement over the ice compares favorably to everyone in the world

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Okay, then why didn’t he say the whole sentence?

 

[Karen-W]

and it stays 5 miles from the US coast at all times!

ewww

I mean, the other options are all entirely inland... Cruise the Columbia River or the Mighty Mississippi on American Cruise Lines!

 

[ilovesalchows]

Baby Johnny skated to this.

 

[myhoneyhoney]

The commercial with Mom not wanting to give out her recipe IRKS me. Like… what….. what if you get a stroke and can’t give your daughter your recipe anymore? Oye

 

[~tapdancer~]

I am ready for Ilia and Jason.

 

[myhoneyhoney]

These ice mics have to go!!!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I just ended work so just started now, Annis … A T-shirt with some sparkles on it? OK…

I love him, but he’s too much of a spaz. He’s not a skater that skates fast which most people think he is …he’s a skater that skates like a spaz until he learns to slow his spazicity down I don’t see him ever harnessing his talent.

 

[just tuned in]

Sweeney Todd meat pies, probably. No, her daughter isn't ready for that.
