2026 Worlds Mens SP - Czech-ered His-tory

[Nadin]

Ah shame, don’t think this will be enough. He’ll have time to take photos on Charles Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

 

[Elisheba]

Ok, that Nordeback can hardly be considered "is also there".

I love this sp, such fun choreo and edgework.
Can I now declare of this group as excellent?

I will allow it

[Asli]

The bright-coloured ads on the rinkside boards are very distracting. I hope these bright red or bright green backgrounds don't become the new normal!

Hi everybody. I'm here for the men's sp with hopes that the demons of Milan have been chased away and everyone skates well. Too much to ask? I sincerely hope not. Since I've missed the first group, I need to scurry and get myself a cup of coffee right now. Looking forward to a fun day of skating.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I would gladly give up on Zandrons as a family, and minions must be punished.

Otherwise, sounds like a fun group too!

Catching up on the chat here, I blame @Andrey aka Pushkin for the popped flip - he forgot about Andreas and therefore Andreas forgot to rotate his solo jump. At least that’s my early morning logic.

Makes perfect sense to me.
I take the blame

 

[miffy]

I am expecting nothing of Ed, therefore I won't be disappointed

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I sympathize with but this whiny emo dreck is doing nothing to me

 

[Wyliefan]

Nice axel, Ed.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Well, this content is kind of making Nakano go "meh", but since he's coached by Zoe Johnes, no I expect him to skate deep into his 50ies

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Lots of red Apple-by boxes for Edward.

 

[JoannaLouise]

The 3a was great, but sadly I don't think a 3-2 is going to get him through to the FS

 

[Sally1214]

Probably not the skate Ed wanted today but it wasn't a disaster....just a few things under review and, of course, that combo that became a triple-double. Oh well ....(sigh).

When I was just coming back with coffee, did I hear Mark say this event is taking place in a 20-thousand-seat arena and that it was almost packed? If so, that's wonderful. Oh, how I wish that could be the case for all the big int'l events in figure skating.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I detest this program with a flaming passion.

 

[Nadin]

The audience here is amazing, such a great atmosphere!

 

[Aceon6]

I detest this program with a flaming passion.

Well, that’s the last time you will be exposed, so if you haven’t caught Minions by now, it’s likely you have natural immunity.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I calm myself with the thought that Tomas was already punished enough by having to listen to this horrible noise every day for a year.

 

[Elisheba]

I detest this program with a flaming passion.

I will take it over all the generic emo dreck and leaving lights on.

 

[Sally1214]

Oh, I can't help it .... I smile every time I see Tomas' minions program. Maybe it's because I just got out of bed and have barely started sipping my coffee and am therefore in a forgiving mood but I'll overlook the error and say "Good job."

 

[miffy]

Donovan Please don't retire!

 

[Elisheba]

ok Donovan teach Nika hip movements

 

[JoannaLouise]

I will take it over all the generic emo dreck and leaving lights on.

He could skate to "In This Shirt" but in his Minions costume. It would be a whole new take on it!

 

[Wyliefan]

For some reason the boards don't bother me, but I could do without the clock in the corner.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I feel like 12:30 and before lunch is too early for hip thrusts.

The lady next to me had to go out for a cigarette after Donovan...

 

[miffy]

Such a shame about the fall That would have been such an amazing skate.

 

[Sally1214]

Second quad attempt aside, that was a really good skate by Donovan.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Ivan Dinev

That's a blast from the past
