Skate to Milano OWG Qualifier - Beijing CHN - Men's SP & FS

[Wyliefan]

Adorable reaction by Kim and coach. I like that LoA program.

 

[skateboy]

Uh oh, Pitot struggling quite a bit.

 

[CantALoop]

Guess this the other side of the Eleanor Rigby coin

 

[skateboy]

Pitot is surely out of contention with that skate. Sad for him.

 

[TAHbKA]

Seriously, between Brain or Pitot/Economides I'd rather see Economides at the Olympics

 

[Belsornia]

Hope springs up for Davide still. Yes, Li is next in line, however Fedir Kulish may not get Latvian citizenship and if that's the case then Davide would get his spot.

IIRC citizenship is still questionable for Davide too.

Battle of the Brians - Battle of the Carmen - now we have Battle of the Eleanor Rigby's to make the Olympics. This performance was all over the place.

133.33 = 9th Place
214.57 = 5th Place

 

[Kateri]

My maths is shonky, but I think he needs about 136 to beat Yu Hsiang?

 

[Karen-W]

IIRC citizenship is still questionable for Davide too.

I think it's likely he gets it, but yes, I've heard the same.

 

[victorskid]

The and I came downstairs (without an alarm) in time to catch the end of Marsak's skate and watch the rest of the last group of Men.

 

[CantALoop]

Dammit Donovan LOCK. IN.

 

[Wyliefan]

First Francois, now Donovan. I should go back to sleep.

 

[Kateri]

Donovan needs 131.17 to stay top 5.

 

[Karen-W]

Oh boy... Donovan is struggling with his two opening quads; gets it back under control with a decent 3a. Ooof, 3z+3t has a rough landing. Really hot & cold with these jumping passes. His SP lead is going to be what keeps him in the top 5, I think, unless the TES drops on review because of jump rotations - which has happened to him in the past.

 

[skateboy]

Donovan better hope his PCS keeps him in. That My Way opening is not a good fit for him AT ALL.

It was a good thing the short program was so good, because it will probably save him from this rough free skate. Just couldn't loosen up to get the jumps into the air.

137.39 = 8th Place
222.36 = 2nd Place

 

[Belsornia]

B E N O I T Elvis programme is such a bad fit for Donovan. Usually he can rely on his charisma when the jumps aren’t working, but this programme saps everything that’s enjoyable about his skating.

 

[CantALoop]

Sigh…never a dull moment being a Donovan fan

 

[Wyliefan]

Aw, he made it! Shouting for joy!

Petr Gumennik

Not quite the quality of the short program, but more than enough technical content today.

169.02 = 1st Place
262.82 = 1st Place

 

[Kateri]

If the choice was mine, I wouldn't have let Russians participate, BUT: if someone did, I'm glad it's Gumennik. I loved him as a junior, and I'm so happy to see him, now. My boy's all grown up!

 

[skateboy]

Not perfect for Gumennik, but he's showing he's aiming for the Olympic podium.

I think he's a really interesting skater. Even when he was a young kid.

 

[Karen-W]

Well, a skate like that will definitely put him in the medal discussion for Milano. Not for gold - even without the mistakes, it wouldn't be enough to match Malinin, though he may challenge Kagiyama, Shaidorov & Siao Him Fa at their best.

 

[Belsornia]

Lutz is not Gumennik’s friend today but with his base value it wasn’t going to go any other way.

Having the AIN athletes here is such BS appeasing Putin’s pals at the IOC, but I do enjoy Gumennik’s skating. Just a really well rounded competitor.

 

[Karen-W]

Tech panel went to TOWN on him - TES dropped nearly 10 points on review.

 

[skateboy]

Love that Kyrylo and Li are in!

 

[TAHbKA]

Doesn't Gumennik have a 4T with all the other quads? Or was it supposed to be a 3lz3loop combination?

 

[SkateFanBerlin]

Guminnik may have a chance but he`ll need 30 more points to be competitive in Milan.

[skateboy]

Doesn't Gumennik have a 4T with all the other quads? Or was it supposed to be a 3lz3loop combination?

Oddly, I don't think he has a 4T. Strange because he has all the others. (Except 4A.)
