No confident men out there tonight

Blimey, never thought Moris'd be still in the lead - but I take it. It was his redemption skate.

Disappointing from Samarin. I thought at the test skates he would be send to the NHT but he is going backwards rapidly. Top 3 in Russia seems a long way off for him.

Great opening combo but then it was a battle. If the jumps aren’t there he struggles. Overall 2nd but 4th in the free.

If I had Mihoko Higuchi's makeup skills, I think my entire life trajectory would have been different from age 13 onward.

I can't help it; i'm fraught with anxiety about his neverending foot injuries and covid training situation...

Anyways. Back on topic. yeah, samarin will never be my favorite...

What Junhwan stan isn't always worrying about his feet/ankles and wishing he could go back to Canada, I want to forget about the situation because I can't (weeps)

Also back on topic: Can Sota do me a favor and not bomb

The gentlemen need to be reminded to leave their solo double jumps at home.

We need to know as it's also the name of a serial killer so the image in my mind's eye are scary.

Come on Sota!

Apparently I'm not even supposed to remotely have a soft spot for a skater without cursing them. *runs away from kagiyama and zhou*

I guess ice is cursed by DG choreo that nobody skates clean after Morisi.

He joins Yuzuru Hanyu in the Haunted Ankles™ club

i had forgotten this was the great piano intro followed by such crappy serenade...

 

[ancientpeas]

samarin has some beautiful jumps when he's on though.

Excuse me, Vincent just won Skate America, I would hardly call that a jinx

Is it supposed to be funny? Morice had a great, beautiful program.
