Semenenko Nirvana SP is so cool.

He's been injured and apparently got sick just before the comp. I thought he looked fragile and like he's lost a lot of weight, but he skated strong.

Artemy Marinin is the cutest thing ever. He's pair skater tall, but really slender. I totally get why he's not interested in pair skating because who'd want that comparison to your father. He doesn't have the quads yet, but he has a certain elegance on the ice, and is flat out adorable. He started in dance but wants to do singles. I don't know how that's going to work out for him, but I really like his skating. Right now, he's just a baby, but there's something about him.

The last 7 men in the FS rocked. Trusova brought the baby to watch Daddy and Ignatov was absolutely clean Best FS I've seen from him in forever. Who knew just having your 3 month old around was the inspiration he needed. Fans are calling the baby Quintlutz.

Russian men are way more enjoyable than Russian ladies or any other discipline.
Loved Semenenko’s SP program yesterday, loved Savosin today even despite the mistakes, Ignatov finally hasn’t died by the third minute, very decent skates for the top skaters as well

Gumennik said that he took some rest after the Beijing qualifying event and is gradually getting back in top shape now to be ready for the Olympics, so his mistakes are kinda understandable. Unlike the others, his main competition of the season won’t be in December

I have no idea how to explain the concept of this RD to non-Russian speakers, but I am at a loss for words
It's so ultimately trashy that it makes it's good

At one point I was wondering why would the Olympians even compete in this series! It’s so meaningless for them. But of course they want to stay In shape

Very Eurotrash 90s! (I could watch without a VPN.)

I think it only plays in Russia and I can’t VPN there.

I watched it without a VPN. The Russian youtube videos don't require a VPN.

If you're a Queen fan, Savosin's FS is one of the best Queen programs I've seen. He becomes Freddy Mercury and the crowds love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1i2DVl8r10 This is the link to the entire men's FS.
