2016 US Intl FS Classic Mens SP

Justice for Mura and his Diagonal Fringe! :dev2:

Were you guys able to see his skate well enough to tell what happened? I couldn't.

No, I just assume that Mura is underscored in PCS. Because he usually is.

Mura and questionable costume fashion have become an annual thing.

The quality of IN video looks like something from 1950s television coverage:-/

SEEEAAANNN!!!

i hate you in. i hate you so much

YESSSSS. It looks like Sean did really well... the half of it that I saw anyway. :dev2: And Sean was the one person I wanted most to see.

Edit: 8 points over his Autumn Classic last year! Nice! And he looked really relaxed and happy skating. It's nice to see.

Should've done the Russian split jump before the spread eagle for the almost Kwan homage! But otherwise, the spread eagle at the exact place MK does hers is a very nice touch.

I guess I'll have to wait until later in the year to see my Irish leporid's short

I'm sure Kwan's skating career is smiling down from heaven watching that lovely skate. <3

Thank Gawd I didn't pay for it.....BTW, What was Adam's score? I wonder if the IN people read this page looking for response as to things went this evening. So far, I'd give them a D.

Protocols are out: http://www.usfigureskating.org/leaderboard/results/2016/24347/SEGM003.html

Nothing from Mura got downgraded. The judges just hit his PCS… hard. They must hate his costume, too.

Holy Cow, badknees!!! Thank you so much.

Jason and Adam both got PCS of 42.10. Interesting.

 

[badknees]

just copied and pasted from IN. I hope that's OK to do that.

Judge 7 on Adam's skating skills???

 

[Interspectator]

36 PCS for Mura?? :noshake:

 

[badknees]

When does the not anonymous judging start?

 

[mrrice]

Adam Rippon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My World has officially been rocked and you are the reason. That big score was well deserved and if you skate like that at Nationals, the crowd will be in the palm of your hand. Brilliant Program!!!!

 

[Tavi...]

Were you guys able to see his skate well enough to tell what happened? I couldn't.

It was hard for me to see any of the top three because of the freezing but Mura seemed "heavy" in his movements. That may have been the costume tho. Still I thought his PCS was way low. Jason looked slower than at Lombardia - not sure if that was feed.

The protocols look very weird to me.
