Some of the jumps were a fight (that 3Lz-3S sequence was something) but I adore Mark. The commitment! The musicality! And the very very good music selections from Jesus Christ Superstar!
He is literally the only skater here today who had facial engagement. He's nowhere near as refined or elegant as Kolyada, but you can tell what he's feeling when he skates.Mark was the most inspired skater of the event. He showed the most heart all day.
I like Mark, but I can't agree that he has the first place
Dima's isn't hectic. Unfortunately the jumps are messy.The Russian men's Free skates are all so hectic and messy
Kolyada really stands out tremendously
