You might want to change the title from 'Mens VS' to'Mens FS', doris (sorry if I am being too familiar with your user name, but it somehow seemed weird to use the complete version in this instance). Anyway, a huge thanks for all your work here :thumbsup:.

 

[Winnie_20]

Awww, I was hoping for some juicy details on a skating battle, the guys vs. the ladies.

 

[ancientpeas]

*whispers* also I think the FS is on Saturday, not Friday. Not that it matters because Friday is over but you do know how some folks get confused.

I hate correcting Doris when she does such good work.

I just laughed.

A prelude to the men's FS costumes? We know this is part of the race towards Olympics but it does not need to be racy.

 

[Skatefan15]

Hoping boyang can pull up to a medal in the long... Also hoping Sergei gets a medal!

Or it could be rollerderby! Men vs Dance!

Bittersweet:

I just learned on another thread that Liam Firus will probably not skate in eligible competitions after this year. I am sad, because I've only discovered him this season.

I know that his SP was a bit of a let-down, so I hope he can recover and deliver his charming FP with style.

This might be his last international competition, so let's all cross our fingers for a good send-off.

could be also Men's Victory Skate (for everyone)

Aw.. that's sad. Poor guy but his coach did say they were here to just get some mileage on his programs before Russian Nationals.

In a season with an OG it really is where they focus. And for almost all the Russians they have to run the gauntlet of their nationals. I wonder if there will be any surprises at Russian nationals. Probably going to be one of the best competitions of the season.

 

[TontoK]

Noteworthy that Misha Ge has choreographed (or co-choreographed) programs for all the Russian men who were slated to compete here.

Maybe he'll find a second life in figure skating.

So sad, he is having bad luck this season, hopefully it turns into a better direction later!

Jin has a good starting number as the first to skate in the final group. The final group seems to be in order of placement in sp, the first group is not, LOL. Voronov skates just before Rippon and Chen, which is a good place, IMO. Somehow I have really started to appreciate Voronov this season, it looks like he has found himself, so to speak.

 

[zschultz1986]

Is everyone excited to watch the Men's Vree Skate in 30 minutes!?

 

[Chemistry66]

I'm excited for Witchy Adam

 

[ruffledgrouse]

VS? Ooooh, this is a new event. Who are the men fighting today?

 

[cheerknithanson]

I'm ready and not ready for Kevin to skate.
