2018 JGP Ljubljana Mens Short Program

[Baron Vladimir]

Kinda shocked by Artur’s score. He is 7 points down on TES to Petr

Yeah, me too. Its a shame to lose points like that. I didnt watch Conrad but i dont think its fair to give 0 points for spins which looked nicely executed. But rules are rules

This week in Ted Barton, Angel of Pure Light, he's giving us an informative and example-rife primer on GOEs.

It’s really just so sad. He likely would have been in the lead or very close to Petr

Andreas Nordeback is back

Kinda shocked by Artur’s score. He is 7 points down on TES to Petr, probably some DG’s or UR’s. Still have enjoyed that performance, Buoyanova was shocked by the score. Still he is well placed to move up in the free. A deserved lead for Petr, a really charming and effortless performance. I also liked the Azeri Russian. I haven’t seen Kotin in while he has aged a bit.

Artur got an edge call, I assume. Plus GOE on spins.

I like that Swedish kid, of course I'm a fan of great spinners:agree:

And the Slovenian kid may need to work on his programs and his speed, but I am loving:luv17: the topknot!

 

[Pandicorn]

That was really good from Mark! Into second place. :agree:

 

[tabsy]

Well done to Mark! Into 2nd.

 

[Pandicorn]

I´m already excited to see our new boy Nikita who is now skating for Germany.

 

[Step Sequence4]

I know the reasoning behind this (spins and edge calls) but I thought Artur & Conrad should be muuuch higher. Free will be interesting.

 

[champagnerain]

I kept thinking that Nikolaj is really tall, so I clicked on his ISU bio, and sure enough, 189 cm. :eeking:

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Robbie Williams :agree:

 

[Pandicorn]

Well done Nikita, only small mistakes.

 

[champagnerain]

Now I kind of wish more people would skate to Mr. Bojangles. Even though he had lots of mistakes, I'm still in a good mood after that skate.

 

[tabsy]

The thread seems kinda quiet for this event...is it a timezone problem?

Tomoki skating now!

Tomoki skating now!

I'm here. Just a bit tired. Took an exam today.

 

[champagnerain]

Oh, right, Tomoki is the one with a blink-and-you'll-miss-it hydroblade. I actually blinked and nearly missed it last time.

 

[Mrs. P]

Wow that is an amazing top 6! Gotta make sure to be there for the FS.

 

[LaArdilla]

Wow what an event! The free skating is sure gonna be something!

 

[tabsy]

I'm here. Just a bit tired. Took an exam today.

An exam with skating after is better than an exam with no skating I guess! hope it went well
