2018 Skate America Mens Short Program

[SnowWhite]

Why am I really worried about Alexei?

Because of what happened at Finlandia

 

[SarahSynchro]

Oh god, Cake by the Ocean. USFS DJ FIND A NEW SONG FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE.

Baby Shark.

 

[Colonel Green]

Bychenko can't help but do better than his last short program, surely.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Bumbleferret!!!

It's a good, enthusiastic for everyone audience. Music courtesy of a major cheapo Bar Mitzvah/Wedding DJ.

It's only a matter of time til we hear Electric Slide this competition...

 

[Mrs. P]

Baby Shark.

Both equally terrible.

 

[CellarDweller]

cutie on the ice!

 

[IceBallerina]

I love him, don't love this music

 

[s_parks]

Is it pathetic that this music reminds me of Yu/Jin in the 11-12 season? Man, I'm nuts...

You don't understand WA. They played that song like 48948903485940385490385n3 times at US Nationals. It was fun the first two times.

Shhhhh, don't jinx it.

I haven't even watched Finlandia :hopelessness:

 

[Ziotic]

Tech panel tonight seems out for blood (which I love). No favours for anyone on UR, spins and stsq!

At least more so than on JGP.

 

[Mrs. P]

Level 2 spin.

 

[rachno2]

I like Bychenko, but I really do not like this program at all. Requiem for a Dream screams early 2000s and the choreography is so empty. Glad to see him do better than at Finlandia, of course

 

[s_parks]

Well, the Skate Canada men's roster was always more interesting to me. Though certainly that event doesn't escape the potential of being mediocre either...

 

[karne]

Oh COME ON. Brezina SHOULD NOT still be second!

Alexei BYCHENKO (ISR)
Requiem for a Dream
in purple and black shreddy shirt and black gloves

3F very nice!
3A step out
wait no quads planned? Doesn't he have a quad toe?
CCoSp
2Lz-3T nice save
FCSp
StSq that feels very 6.0 for some reason
CSSp

Yay! Good job.

 

[Ziotic]

Looks like Zhou will slide into the second group just barely.

We will at least see more level 4 spins. Though we may have TCC spin curse at play.

 

[Dr. Jenn]

That was really messy and didn't do it for me at all. He seemed to have zero connection to the music until the footwork, and he has zero stretch, plus poor spins. He is so short that he needs to work on his posture, line, and extension to lengthen himself.

 

[anonymoose_au]

How is he fourth? Sergei deserved a bit better than that!

I know what the heck, Judges?

I'm calling the fair play police on them.

(Sergei and Alexei B should get old man points )
