Xiaoyu lost a bet or something? That bubblegum pink floral dress is hideous. Even juniors would nope outta that.

They had a quad award for the guy who did the most quads between SP and FS, so Boyang won that. Then there was the quad battle. I think Han Yan did a 3T, Max popped his 4S jump into a double, Voronov did a 3T-3T and Boyang did 4Lz but with messy landing. Patrick landed his 4T cleanly. They then had the other skaters 'vote' for the winner of the quad battle by lining up behind them and Patrick and Boyang had the same score, so they 'won'. It's a pretty organized quad battle, haha.

I think Max popped into a double, and fell. I'd have to see it again.

OMG this is so highschool, they even made it into a popularity contest. I love it!
You need to be quads to be cool guys, this is the reality.

Good lord, Max, what did you do to those jeans?! Those were beyond fashionably distressed. I thought the ones at CoR were new and now I see why.

It was more like a show me-your-best-jump contest. Interesting that the quality vs degree of difficult contest was a draw, reflecting competition scores frequently awarded.

Lmao so it was an "official" quad battle?? Is this a thing now? :laugh: I think it sounds fun but it seems to put unnecessary pressure on the guys? It should be a fun thing between skaters who want to play along (unless your name is Nam who trained with guys who's name begins with J and Y):devil:
