2026 Worlds Mens SP - Czech-ered His-tory

[Karen-W]

Well, @tony will be satisfied with the tech panel's calling of Grassl's quads today, lol. TES dropped 4+ points on review.

 

[JoannaLouise]

I’m back from grocery shopping and DH will no longer starve. Other than the North American guys, who are the standouts from groups 3 and 4?

Selevko was amazing!

 

[flyingsit]

Torgy top 10!

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Miura is going right into the boards
And now he will also have to pay for damaging these precious ISU screens!

 

[Karen-W]

Kao doing Kao things today... Catlike landing on the 3A!

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I quite enjoy this program. Woodkid is a good choice.
So, Miura or Nordeback? I presume Miura....

 

[Wyliefan]

Torgy top 10!

About to be top 9.

 

[miffy]

Oh no, total disaster, again...

 

[Sally1214]

Miura proving he is part feline by hanging onto that 3axel landing. As for the rest of the program, it's not his day.

 

[beckab81]

Disaster skate for Kao

 

[Citlali]

Miura

 

[Karen-W]

Torgy top 10!

And Jacob in the top 12!

Kao may get Nordeback into the FS.

 

[PRlady]

I hope Kao works out whatever is screwing him up. He’s a great skater.

 

[Reuven]

Miura may not qualify.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Poor Kao

 

[genevieve]

Whee, still going on as I wake up!

for Miura. I love this SP

 

[beckab81]

I quite enjoy this program. Woodkid is a good choice.
So, Miura or Nordeback? I presume Miura....

I think Nordeback - you can't give that performance high PCS, and I think Kao will be at least 5 points lower on TES

 

[Cachoo]

Love the music, loved Kao when he won 4 Continents a couple of years ago. I hope he comes back stronger next year.

 

[Sally1214]

I think we need to petition to make ice surfaces larger. The Japanese skaters (going right back to the days of Midori Ito) have a lot of problems with getting to close to/running into/jumping right over the boards.

 

[PRlady]

Selevko makes the final group for the free. I wouldn’t be unhappy if he medaled.

 

[Karen-W]

I think Nordeback - you can't give that performance high PCS, and I think Kao will be at least 5 points lower on TES

I mean, there is skating while Japanese which gets a huge PCS bump.

 

[tony]

Selevko makes the final group for the free. I wouldn’t be unhappy if he medaled.

6 to go

 

[beckab81]

Selevko makes the final group for the free. I wouldn’t be unhappy if he medaled.

There are still 6 to skate?

 

[Sally1214]

I'm forgetting .... did Aleksandr do two quads?

 

[my little pony]

well I hoped Nordeback would come thru but that is not how I expected to see it happen

I mean, there is skating while Japanese which gets a huge PCS bump.

Multiple mistakes capped it, PCS was almost 6 points below his best (which was kind of what I expected, that was super messy even on transitions)

 

[Karen-W]

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

This post did not age well!

 

[miffy]

Come on Adam!

Medal for Adam is my only goal please, skategods. You can do what you like with the rest.

To throw some March Madness into the conversation, Kao Miura just won the NIT tournament.
