That is not an easy program, and not an easy one to do with a small audience. I look forward to seeing it with an engaged audience. I think it has a lot of promise but needs time to grow. I also think his coach deserves a lot of credit as a choreographer as that is a great program.

A year ago, in the JGP Brisbane, Donovan got 51 points in his short program (he also had a fall and it was the previous qualification system) and today, despite having a new rating system and a new program he got 58 points, It is quite an achievement and I am certain that if he manages to calm those nerves as he did in Milan, it could surprise more than one.
Donovan skates tomorrow in the third group, after Luke Digbi, 4:07 PM to 4:14 PM (time Bratislava)
Ánimo Donovan!
PS: If Donovan dedicates the free program to his mother I have the impression that we will end up in tears of emotion :hopelessness:

but he still got high presentation marks! Nice job Donovan! Real shame about the Axel (and the time deduction), but I believe he'll get there soon 
He's a real charmer, a joy to watch. It must be hard to connect to the audience when there isn't too much of it lol. Though it mostly only looks that way cause the arena is pretty big. He definitely got me cheering

Both programs are really amazing, Donovan seemed a bit tired (jetlag, over training?) But he left everything on the ice rink so: Thank you Donovan!
I hope that Donovan participate in another JGP and series challenger (does anyone know if he will participate in the Open Mexico in September?)

This interview almost made me cry ...

"I need to worry more about skating and less about money"
Presenting a routine with music by Juan Gabriel in an international skating competition was a double-edged sword for Donovan Carrillo: he became famous, but he was also attacked. Forged from the culture of effort, "always willing to suffer," this 18-year-old is the only opportunity that Mexico has to classify in the specialty to the Beijing Olympic Games 2022. However, the lack of support puts at risk his goal. While the Mexican sports authorities turn their backs-they didn't pay attention to him when he asked for a uniform-a Chinese company already had his eye on him.

This makes me cry too :sad21: Donovan has accomplished so much with such limited training circumstances, and the Mexican government does not appear to know what a treasure they have in him. I hope that he will get the aid he needs.

It's a shame that he's still not having any support from the government.
