RAYA, Javier ESP

Looking really handsome on Les mis costume
Long preparation into Single Axel :(
3T-3t
Flying Sit Spin, fast!
3F
Camel Spin
Circular Footwork, he actually respected the pattern.
Combo Spin

Elegant skating but I feel this music requires more drama. He seemed unfocused.

Mommy was first coach but shipped Romanenkov off to Levandi now. ;)

Good performance quality from Raya. Sold the program quite well, fluid movement, a few nice choreographic touches.

My hatred for the commentator grows every minute. A lot of pointless comments, annoying tone of voice, annoying laugh. He's so self-indulged he seems to forget it's about the skaters and not him.

I feel for you. I am exteremely lucky this year - I can watch on Swedish or Italian TV, (no stream struggles). The commentators speak only when they should. And they are quite ok.

How do you do it? Got yourself a service providing you with a foreign IP address?

IF you are not Plushenko, please dont skate to any Marton's music anymore. Or if you are Plushenko as well.

Zoltan Kelemen - ROU: Two time olympian, finished dead last at his first Euros. Has progressed so much since.

Alexei Bychenko - ISR: Former competing for Ukraine. Punched the ticket for Sochi at Nebelhorn.
Justus Strid - DEN: Little brother to one of the 2 crazy danish coaches.
Kim Lucine - MON: Loves to relies on circus-comedy programs to hide his lack of skills.

Nooo. I live in Sweden (swedish TV still broadcasts figure skating in decent way) and I have RAI Sport2 via satelite.
So nice not to be dependent on crappy Eurosport broadcast!

Boring program from Kelemen but he was quite fast and hit all of the elements. It's great to see him improved so much and do so well at the ancient age of 27. I am really happy for him as well. :)

Kelemen got highest TES by far but lost PCS to Cieplucha. Finally judges do something right. ;)

Pfeifer's skating was lovely and his 2axel and 3s/3t were of +2 quality IMO. Shame about fall on the lutz.

I so admire Viktor for skating so well to this slow and difficult music. He did a great job. Beautiful, finished moves. Shame about 3Z!!!
