Ouch, how did he achieved that?

Can't really watch now, work is calling me.

Popped his quad sal into a triple and then fell on it

That was a good skate by Adam

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Powerful 3A with a turnout, but that looked elegant as well. Imho saves, if done elegantly, should count as difficult features, not mistakes.

I was pretty sure it was only a 2A first! So yes, powerful!

 

[LadyB]

He looks a bit like the Lazuking.

 

[EdgeCall]

Adam is 15? Great, looking forward to how he will develop. Lots of promise.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

The Spin Doctor! Good luck!

 

[Novalis]

Come on Quad Doctor!!

 

[Jasira]

Good luck to Dr. Valter

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Ahh maybe his 3A got called, I thought he might qualify.

Go Dr. Finland!

 

[EdgeCall]

Ahh maybe his 3A got called, I thought he might qualify.

Maybe he still will. A little encouragement can't hurt.

 

[Novalis]

The Spin Doctor! Good luck!

Yes, I suppose "quad doctor" is more of an ironic title.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

I really hate sit twizzles because they always make me think someone's botched a spin

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Yay a clean and touching performance from Dr. Valter

He got a step sequence 4, how lovely and deserved. He made the best out of the content he had! Now judges give him good PCS we need the doctor in the FS!

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Maybe he still will. A little encouragement can't hurt.

Indeed he can! He might just qualify!

 

[TimSparkle]

Yes, I suppose "quad doctor" is more of an ironic title.

He has mastered his quad in past.

 

[yume]

Where does quad doctor find the time to practice?

 

[Vemvane]

That was a soothing sort of skate from Dr Virtanen - quiet music, nothing frantic in the choreography, every jump landed (the deeeeeep knee bend on the last jump was what saved him, I think), and then at the end, the sound of his blades on the ice as he spins and the music fades out. I enjoyed that, and hooray for his new PB!

Must go now, though, so will probably miss the rest of the men's SP.

 

[Ichatdelune]

I wish Estonia had two spots for men here because I'd have loved to see my favourite Estonian man, Aleksandr Selevko, also here with my second favourite Estonian man

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Yaaay he qualified

Seriously what was the deduction for though?

 

[LadyB]

Well done, Doc!
