2018 JGP Yerevan Mens Free Skate

[Mrs. P]

Adam will rank ahead of Tomoki, since his gold medal ranks him ahead of Tomoki's silvers.

You're right. I'm tired. LOL. too much calculating.

JGPF: Hello, Brian and Stephane

It is the best thing! I would really love to have there Verner and Amodio's students to complete the tally

 

[Colonel Green]

Thrilled for Iliya. Canada ends the JGP season with two bronze medals on the same day, a nice note. Now, if only Conrad had won that bronze medal...

Now we have to wait until December to hear Ted Barton do commentary again.

Big conrats to iliya for his first jgp medal

 

[Wilwarin]

personally, I hope for some footage of the two of them

Back to Vancouver? Definitely!

 

[Colonel Green]

Just realized, Japan didn't win a single gold medal this JGP season. But some promising people for next time.

Andrew Torgashev has been really lucky for the past two years in the way he ekes it into the final over other skaters who have higher scoring programs than him.

That said, I'm super excited for him, but I also feel sorry for Danielan, who actually had really good skates, but much tougher competition.

1. Gumennik 439.29 (30)
2. Pulkinen 436.40 (28)
3. Siao Him 404.97 (26)
4. Hiwatashi 428.40 (26)
5. Torgashev 396.38 (24)
6. Shimada 433.40 (24)

Koshiro actually has the third highest combined score (to my surprise, higher than Tomoki). The field where you compete absolutely matters

Mens FS vids have been uploaded.

If Mozalev skated one point better he would be in final too. Sad for him and Gogo, but they are young, they will have the next year...

Now we have to wait until December to hear Ted Barton do commentary again.

I somehow hoped for his commentary on SC but I guess it was too much to ask...??? A petition needs to be started, "We want Tim Barton the commentator on major competitions"

 

[Ichatdelune]

Drama until the very end, I'm still sad about Artur (and my other faves with the exception of Younghyun, he wasn't in contention in the first place), but I don't have problems with the finalists. And now I need to get a hot shower to unfreeze my toes. See you all!

 

[Spirals for Miles]

Just realized that this'll be the first time I'll hear the French anthem

 

[ancientpeas]

Cool host costumes.

Not that I am very well-versed in junior (especially men), but I've been told that some of their highest potential scorers are left without an assignment this year (Shun Sato, Kao Miura).

The graphics on that flag display are giving me wicked 80's video game flashbacks.

Yeah.... some of the promising young skater in Japan didn’t have chance to go[ so looking toward them in next year for sure ]and Koshiro got two of the most rough field as well...... but I would said the Junior Japanese still had done a good job [still need to improve, but have lots of potentials
