Yet one MORE interruption in the middle of Kessler. I take it he singled the axel? Shame. Seemed to be doing pretty good in the parts I got to watch.

Mr Mac likes those. They are his special treat like Coke Zero is mine.

Kolyada tribute

 

[Elisheba]

Zlatkov is indubitably a better skater, but he is no Larry Loupolover.

 

[MacMadame]

Is this music from movie/ tv? (It's from The White Crow)

 

[Karen-W]

I don't recall having seen Zlatkov before. And I'm sure I'd remember because @AngieNikodinovLove (ANL) would have certainly added him to the harem.

 

[Braulio]

mandatory single jump number 2

 

[skategal]

I love “The White Crow” but it reminds me of Kolyada and the Lala’s.

 

[MacMadame]

Is this music from movie/ tv? (It's from The White Crow)

Yes, it is.

Also, Tribute Program

 

[beckab81]

At least it was a pretty pop?

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Looks like it’s going to be a popitis kind of day.

 

[Rukia]

Zlatkov not super fast but his posture is gorgeous. 2 men 2 invalid elements though rip.

 

[tony]

Zlatkov should have amongst the highest composition scores in the competition, not joking. It’s a Kolyada rip-off but the program is choreographed so well

 

[Karen-W]

I love “The White Crow” but it reminds me of Kolyada and the Lala’s.

And I think of Cain/Le Duc when I hear this music.

 

[MacMadame]

"artistic" camerawork

[peibeck]

Zlatkov is quite porny. Too bad about the last half of the program which was a mess. Sigh.

 

[MacMadame]

At least it was a pretty pop?

And I took off "elegant pop" to add more Chris-isms, too.

I mean, the 100m in track is less than 10 seconds...

I have it on mine?

Also, it's March. So they had a very long season already.
