Yudong sounds quite tasty

 

[Desperado]

Nice to see a coach in a suit and tie. Same suit and tie as the Short Program, hopefully not the same shirt too.

As I was going around getting things set up, did I hear Mark say that Donald Jackson is in attendance? How nice to have the man who landed the first 3lutz in the audience. He must really enjoy seeing what today's skaters are doing in the sport he loves and did so much for.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Chen is aimlessly skating around the rink with very little purpose and direction, periodically landing some triples. A classic SAW.

 

[beckab81]

Good job Yudong! Hopefully you doing ok here will mean that the fed will allow Boyang to retire.

 

[Private Citizen]

Powerful high quality jumps from Chen. Flips both looked lippy to me, and I assume that’s why they’re being reviewed. More elements under review than I’d expect.

Finnice says hello to everyone! She appreciates when people use music she has never heard before, even if they have no connection to it

 

[Sally1214]

Yudong looks happy with his efforts. Good for him.

student against war? surface acoustic wave?

 

[peibeck]

Boyang who?

 

[ks1227]

Is that Fang Dan sitting with Chen?

Pitot is not a fridge break only because I'm not hungry

This was my suggestion for the Olympics FS. I'm happy to see it come to light. (Although it might have been more appropriate for Ilia in Milan. )

-Francois, which Beatles songs you want to use for the LP?
-Yes.

 

[my little pony]

a beatles medley, even with some non Beatle singers, is rather bold in our you can't get the music rights era

 

[miffy]

Pitot looks good but I think some black eyeliner would complement the look.

Aww the fall

 

[suep1963]

And ending with Chorale Beatles

 

[slicekw]

Pitot gets +5 for his Beatles medley. I'm pretty sure the cuts his arranger chose had a larger theme intended.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Pitot has such nice flow and extension on his jump landings when he's on. Alas, he is also French, with the inconsistency that goes along with that.

 

[peibeck]

Not bad for Pitot. Not as voidy as some French guys, but his basics are good. Nice 4s!

 

[Private Citizen]

Hot and cold performance from Pitot. Some of the jumps had a Lorine Schild-like lean to them. Flip again looked lippy to me.

I’m getting annoyed with all the people coming to their seats in the middle of the performances. This arena is very well labelled but somehow people keep ending up in the wrong section, row, and seat even in the rafters.

 

[JoannaLouise]

OMG the coach cam showing Benoit getting super excited, and then immediately turning stonefaced again when he notices that he's on screen

 

[Sally1214]

Pitot gets +5 for his Beatles medley.

100%.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Pitot has quite good height on his jumps, if he could improve the snap up he’d be quite consistent on quads, IMO. Plenty of potential there.

 

[miffy]

It's so lovely that all the CZE skaters made it through to the free

 

[Aceon6]

Georgii looks 15, not 23. I have a feeling that he will be carded in North America until he retires.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

A Kingsman vest clad program is very Brezina coded.

No stone-faced ushers present with arms crossed over burly chests stopping them with a firm "No, not during a performance?"

Reshtenko is having heavy wether today

Super cautious, slow, and it's the most scared secret agent I've seen in a while. The timing is off.

Hydroblade is probably the only move today he seemed to enjoy.
