Actually I think I put this guy in first for some reason, don't disappoint me son!

Look at this kid, he's having a blast!

That shirt is still super weird though

The Rugby World Cup started last week. And when I saw this, I just thought "rugby shirt".

I don't know if he plays rugby football, but he certainly looked like he was having a ball!

He looked disappointed when getting his scores. But, he went into 5th. So, not all that bad!

Japan showcased all the best it has to offer in terms of cacti here at Osaka...

 

[Ichatdelune]

Great 3A, stumble on the combo. All three Japanese men failing to go clean today

23 Shunsuke NAKAMURA JPN coached by Mia Hamada, skating to El Conquistador by Maxim Rodriguez. He means business with a huge 3A and 3LZ. A touch down on 3F-3T. Room for improvement on the last spin combo.

Shunsuke is still awesome, no matter what...

 

[Ichatdelune]

WHOA JUHEON IS GOING TO FINISH FIRST!!!!!

 

[elektra blue]

Israel has the right weather for Cacti to grow...

You could hear the surprise in Ted's voice when Shunsuke went into 2nd.

Today has been really interesting, very few complete disasters but also very few perfect programs, and a lot of almost, almost clean skates

Still, very well done overall, the Free Skate will be incredibly interesting with the relatively small margins at the top There will be a few battles for places - On and off the podium.

Given the mistake, it was the correct placement. Congrats to Juheon!
