I wonder why Patrick practiced 3A3T when he was to do 3A2T2Lo in the program.

He was propably looking for 3A3T but landing was not perfect so he turned that to 3 jump combo
No, it's because he downgraded his 4T into a 3T so he had to avoid Zayaking. At this he event he did 3A2T2Lo and later a 3Lz2T whereas before he did 3A3T and 3Lz2T2Lo. He could have just done 3A2T without altering the 3Lz combo and that would have been simpler.
But it goes to show he had the presence of mind to avoid Zayaking even as he seemed to be in the zone.

Thank you 4everchan for the report that has kept us both up. I forgive you as I go to bed now. Good night all.
I'm in love with Patrick's LP...With this program I finally forgive him of taking Takahashi's gold.
I would say he looks mighty fine on video as well. Haven't had the chance to watch him live, so I'm a bit jealous naturally. Anyway, very good skate, men's is so very exciting nowadays!so ... i just watched the ctv on youtube...
now i can finally say : you always need to watch a skater in person... but for Patrick.. OMG there is a world of difference...patrick's skating is 1000000 times better in person... and that's not true for everyone... it's a question of camera angle... and speed i think.
they found ways to do so... but still not enough to keep him on the national team.. which is a relief... i am not a hater at all... i actually enjoy his skating but Liam needs to go back to the drawing board if he wants to keep skating at a high level... and while he does, that, he shouldn't be going out and competing internationally.
Patrick had a very good program, but I prefer Nicolas, Kevin and Nam (in this order)
Congratulation Patrick!
Kevin was painfull to watch...even with the excellent content he had. The music does not wok for him, he skates blandly. It was a long long program. The dude is good, but that program : NOT. And I was seeing him live.
And Nic... Nic, what a show you put on!
both of you guy are not perfectly correct... see my post...
patrick never does the 3a-3t... because he does the 4t-3t.. like he did tonight... downgrading the 4t into a 3t just means that his repeated jumps are 3t and 3a instead of 4t and 3a...
as i said, i think he is keeping his options open.. because of GPF where twice he fell on the second 4t or 3a and got a huge deduction for REP and no combos... so... as i saw in the warm up... if the 4t is landed in the first pass, whatever jump he can tag will be it... in the warm up... 2t.... in the SP nothing... in the LP 3t... s so in the SP : he put the 3t after the lutz which I like as he gets .43 bonus LOL...
in the LP.. 4t-3t landed... if he had not downgraded the 4t into a 3t... the 3a would still have had 2t-2l
the only way the 3a-3t will show up is if Patrick doesn't do a 3t after either one of his opening quads.
