Opening ceremony is very beautiful

But Dikidzhi's 4Lz was just awesome. Best quad of the day.

He is a student of Tataurov, and Tataurov was a student of Mishin.

Makes you wonder how come they haven't invented anything better since then. The more so, as I am not really sure what the hype about this Winter program is, Yagudin has had more interesting programs IMO from choreographic point of view. Well, I guess the audience likes it.

I love it, the Olympic performance, in in my record the best short program ever

Hi, could someone post the men’s top 6 in English? I can’t read the results.

Back in the days it was very different from what other men were skating.

I think many people do. I find his Schnitke SP from 1998-1999 choreographically a lot more intricate.

Where are you watching it? I'm seeing a zamboni on the Men's SP stream.

That was 20 minutes ago brotha

Oh wow, now he's already getting hailed as a Malinin rival? Really I don't get the hype about that guy.

Vlad and Ilya are both a bit stiff, both need work on skating skills. Also both are natural jumpers and fast rotators. They also have similiar voices. lol. Both are a work in progress, but it has been fun to see Vlad contending this year. (Because last year I had never even heard of him)

Vlad only skated in juniors last season (that was a strange decision, because before he competed in seniors). He had a very rough season and his reaction to his JNats was painful to watch.

Oof, I don't care that much about tough jumps anyway... I mean some of my favourite skaters are guys like Aymoz and Kolyada... but even if one does... the rest of his landings were pretty shaky. Not terrible, but absolutely not deserving those GOE. And although I found him much better, with a lot more fire and pace than before, the program is still rather simple. I don't know about his planned jump content for the free, but his FS bv so far was not suuuper high. Like, I'm not a great fan of Malinin, but I can see that his jump content is absolutely incredible. I don't even see that with Vlad.

My thoughts too: shaky landings, ton of work to do on PCS (Malinin too), nevertheless Dikidzhi has miles to catch up with Malinin in reputation, and he has no 4A or Ari Zakharyan, which do help promote Ilia, as far as I understand.

Yablokov too. I like him, but he is also stiff in the knees. So sad for Erohov, and their coach Viktoria, they are very likeable as a group, although they are a group of cacti.

That was beautiful! SHe has gotten so tall!

Update on Erokhov

His injury is not a fracture.

Erokhov has a ligament injury. He's probably aggravated an old injury. He will return home to Moscow and undergo a full examination.
