Impressive skate! Really enjoyable.

 

[NoNameFace]

those Japanese flags in all sizes waived after skate are giving me life

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Well that was pretty awesome

 

[NoNameFace]

Mitsuki, your camel spin level....

it's 'invented camel on hot desert' kind of spin...

 

[cathlen]

Good morning everyone

 

[Winnie_20]

In other news, I've just noticed the fancy pants tech box, is that a new thing from the ISU? Is it just for this competition or is it going to be a new thing?

New, yes. Is it gonna stick around? I wouldn't bet against it.

edit: Coldplay! *quickly hits the mute button*

Man Camden's eyebrows are a thing of beauty.

"Fix You" oh man this song always gets stuck in my head Oh well at least it's a good one.

[matmuh]

presentation isnt Mitsuki's forte (or spins ) but his skating is so smooth :luv17:

 

[jillredhand]

YOwch, what went on with that spin?

 

[xeyra]

Camel spin levels are cancelled.

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Camden is nervious. Spin only L2.

 

[nolangoh]

The Camel Spin again...

 

[anonymoose_au]

New, yes. Is it gonna stick around? I wouldn't bet against it.

I think it's great because it tells you the jumps and stuff, so helpful! I seem to recall something similar at the US Nationals when I watched it once last year. This one is even better with real time GOE scoring!

Keep it, ISU, I say!

Costly mistake on combo and spin

SP: 35.57+35.33 = 70.90 (PB), 3/4

Camden is fairly expressive with a nice glide. The lean on his landings seems shaky. Every Coldplay program looks the same to me lol

 

[jillredhand]

A lot of Camden's choreography and gestures seemed to be barely under control... he's definitely a powerful skater (that 3A was almost in the rafters!), but he could benefit from a more upbeat program rather than a lyrical one, I think.

 

[Princessroja]

Can't listen to this music without thinking of being in the audience at worlds and watching the Shibs get their medal. Amazing.

But I also really enjoyed Camden's performance, despite the technical issues.

Time for Jason Brown to give these men a camel spin master class.
