Worlds 2025 Mens Free: “Oh My Quad We’ve Come To The End”

[beckab81]

Has there been any actual choreography yet? This is a very bland Bond!

 

[MacMadame]

I think Hagara has whickety-whack. That stuff on the front of his shirt.

 

[Karen-W]

Ha! Adam giving us a downward fist pump as he lands his last jump!

 

[Holy Headband]

I like Hagara's commitment to executing the most difficult transitions in and out of jumps in the men's field despite it seemingly never affecting his GOEs.

 

[JoannaLouise]

The Bond villain slays! (He's not in a suit and bowtie, so I assume he's the villain and not James Bond. )

 

[skategal]

Whee Adam Hagara!!

My new favorite OES.

Nah, it's just gold appliques with stoning.

nm, I take it back. It doesn't flap.

That seems like a break through performance for Hagara at the senior level. The second triple Axel was nice.

154.29 = 1st Place
232.62 = 1st Place

 

[peibeck]

Wheeeeee!!!! Beautiful jumps and strong skating skills. Hope Adam is working on quads and boosting the spins. The knee slide into the 3F was amazing!

 

[miffy]

Chris sounded almost gleeful at being able to say ‘didn’t put a foot wrong’

 

[Rukia]

His fw was crawling but then that 3 jump combo covered a quarter of the rink

Perplexing how that GOE thing works, isn't it?

 

[Lizziebeth]

I guess he needs to be at a few more major competitions as a senior for the judges to notice

 

[slicekw]

Hagara doesn’t seem to know how good he could be.

 

[Lana K]

Adam is so clutch. Great skate from him! Just as good as Junior Worlds a few weeks back.

 

[Vagabond]

Could Kulish and Samoilov please each give Hagara a quadruple jump? He would put them to better use.

 

[Sally1214]

What a great skate for Hagara. Gotta love all those green boxes. Good for him!

[MacMadame]

Heart hands/ arms!

 

[tangerine dream]

Hagara skates like a really good junior. There's a lot to work on, especially in choreography and presentation, but what a great foundation he has. One to watch for the future!

 

[slicekw]

Grassl is "doing" Billy Elliott with this "costume".

Hey, native English speakers string their clauses together however they were taught as children when they were learning English in school when they were kids and never mind everyone should be able to read it as it was meant to be read.

 

[ks1227]

Hagara still seems rather young, but I have to say that he is a lot better than I had realized! (I haven't really been paying enough attention to Juniors lately.)

 

[Karen-W]

Could Kulish and Samoilov please each give Hagara a quadruple jump? He would put them to better use.

I'd like for Nordeback to have at least one of those as well.

 

[MacMadame]

He left off the second triple flip in that SEQ. I am surprised.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Andreas is mostly fluff and sugar, not really high protein at all.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Nordeback’s hobbies include investing and day trading. A candidate for Skating’s Next Top Bachelor?

 

[Vagabond]

The Sweedish guy looks a tiny bit like Johnny Weir. Just a tiny bit.

It's Johnny with a dye job and blue contact lenses.
