2022 JGP Baltic Cup Men's Free Skate

I think "Way Down We Go" belongs in the same category as "Falling"

Absolutely! It's as if they choreograph programs around planned mistakes

 

[TT_Fin]

As Arttu is a skater who even has not tried skating before age of nine I think it was well done.

 

[bartlebooth]

Good sensitivity to the music, nice speed, jumps and spins, and a gorgeous mane of hair!

Finland really is bringing forth some insanely talented skaters recently His jumps are huge and so technically good. Nice posture and skating skills as well. And the hair is just wonderful

Beautiful lines, really big jumps, and somehow manages to make an overused piece of music feel fresh again! Well done Arttu!

Definitely one of Volkov's children - Coming with the chaos included. Honestly, I am so confused by the relative weakness of posture and skating skills in Volkov's skaters, after all, his wife (who also works as a coach and choreographer alongside him) is a former ice dancer.

I like Semen's pants

Oh, what a shame he had to retie his boots and had to interrupt his program. His choreo sequence is giving me Keegan vibes, which is a bit compliment to him

Arthur, I'm putting you into the same Cactus category as most of the Canadian men - Beautiful skating skills, posture and feel for the music, nice spins, and very inconsistent jumps.

 

[elektra blue]

temporarily cartwheeling here from Finland!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

I'm here to cheer on my new Canadian son. GOOD LUCK ANTHONY!!!!!!

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Seigo...sweetie...no 4T attempt...I beg
Clean as possible, please
No melt downs~
Fidgetty hand all you want just please hold it together

Ugh...I think I'm gonna pass out

 

[TT_Fin]

I also popped from Finlandia to see boys and noticed Arttu Juusola has got up some places. And I also noticed his TES is better than the senior Finnish men's TES at Finlandia Trophy. Good boost for Finnish men skaters. Have no idea will he take part in seniors or juniors at nationals, but he is a real challenger.

I am still a bit behind catching up, but sad to see Zich not being able to recover. Supatashvili, on another hand, was a pleasant surprise. Like I said, I’ll need Team Georgia’s flag.
