World Juniors 2025 - Men FS

[JoannaLouise]

Vaclavik not off to a great start in terms of the jumps, but I love his musicality in the step sequence.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Another piece of music that is tinkering on war horse territory.

Don’t skaters know that Cher has a whole discography out there….

 

[Sally1214]

Oh WHY am I getting nervous already for Anthony P? I KNOW he doesn't have the 3A or a quad (does he?) but I can't help myself for hoping he'll do well. I'm just SUCH a Canuck.

 

[tony]

Massive level of meltdown for Vaclavik. This should've been a push for Slovakia to get 3 entries to Junior Worlds next year.

 

[Karen-W]

Vaclavik - well, this certainly wasn't the program he was hoping for. Current top 4 are moving up another spot, for sure.

No quad, but who cares, he's awesome!

 

[hoptoad]

So the opposite of tiffed is fripped. Non?

Unless you are quartz and can be both at once!

 

[Karen-W]

No. Neither do their choreographers, even when they flash their gay card all over social media.

 

[Sally1214]

Go, Anthony ....... pretty please .....

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

No. Neither do their choreographers, even when they flash their gay card all over social media.

Calling Jorik!!!!!!

 

[JoannaLouise]

I know it was way under, but I have to give Anthony respect for at least trying the 3a. You can't get it if you don't try it.

 

[floridaice]

Has Anthony's growth spurt finished?

 

[tony]

Nice transitional movements all the way through, but every single jumping pass aside from the first 3+3 has looked very very tight. 3A won't get full rotation credit

 

[Kateri]

I know it was way under, but I have to give Anthony respect for at least trying the 3a. You can't get it if you don't try it.

For a skater I saw people write off as being only about the drama, he's really pushed his tech content since the start of the season, when he didn't really have a 3Z.

 

[Karen-W]

Ted's been teasing that Anthony's going to try a 3a... And he did. And he fell. So, yeah, there's that answer. Nice save on the low landing of the 2a with a hand flourish to carry the extension out, lol. Some good parts here, some rough parts where his skates aren't quite under him. I think Canada may be in real danger of dropping to 1 man next year. They're going to need a LOT of help from the rest of the men left.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I think Canada may be in real danger of dropping to 1 man next year.

Yeah, I came to that conclusion about a third of the way in here

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Not Anthony's night technically but I love him anyway. Does anyone else think he's the secret love child of Toller Cranston, Shawn Sawyer and Kevin Reynolds?

 

[Sally1214]

Kudos to Anthony for at least TRYING the 3axel. I felt he was really tense today .... tight on a lot of his landings. Keep working hard, Anthony. You've got a ton of talent to develop. Nice PCS .... he always deserves those.

 

[Wyliefan]

Now there's a non-warhorse. I can't remember any skates to Silence of the Lambs.

With voiceovers, yet!

 

[JoannaLouise]

Poor Zich looks totally lost in the air on his last couple of jumps

 

[tony]

You really trust Ted with that?

 

[Karen-W]

Just how many skaters does Lambiel have here? Zich looks like he's wearing one of shirts delivered to Deniss as an option for his SP. Of course, it wasn't sheer enough for Deniss' liking, so he gave it to Zich. He's been plagued by injuries the past couple seasons & hasn't ever really lived up to the early promise he had a couple years ago.

 

[kwanfan1818]

Zich is another lovely, refined skater who couldn’t buy a jump.

[Sally1214]

Aww .... he looks SO disappointed in the K/C. You just want to give him a hug.

 

[Sally1214]

So, it appears that I need to rewind and watch Patrick Blackwell. Will do that now.

 

[Sally1214]

WOW .... Blackwell was excellent. Was that a "raspberry" he did along with the backflip? LOVED him. He's already made a BIG jump in the standings. Wonder how much further he can climb?

 

[Karen-W]

Yes, it was a raspberry twist.

I'm not sure how much higher he can climb - it will depend entirely on the men in the last two groups. The more menning, the higher he rises.

 

[tony]

Beauty 3A for Arlet, that's major for him! Definitely the first time he's ever done it.

 

[Aceon6]

Kinda ironic when Mama’s Boy looks up and around with an open mouth like “wtf am I doing” then hits a couple of nice jumps. He still doesn’t have the content to contend, though, assuming the S bros are still around.
