Even though he messed up a lot, I like him better in this program than I ever have before. He looks and moves like someone out of a 40's musical, or maybe West Side Story. Casual "American" glamor.

Vaugh was doing so well at the beginning of his program. Messed up towards the end. Pretty good skate.

Vaughn Chipeur, CAN
Slow cool swing music

3a nice, almost delayed rotation
3F? great, i think left off combo after hesitation
3lz good
2lo
3a no combo (i think it was a 3?)
3s messy i think overrotated
I missed that one (2a?)
1lz
music speeds up and i think it's thrown his timing off
decent spins

there is still something a bit "studied" in his delivery of choreo, but he does have his own understated elegance and natural sense of cool that i still like watching him, it is not overdone at least..

109.81 -- 2nd overall

Wow, this CAN man's jumps are the absolute h-i-g-h-e-s-t I've ever seen (like he's jumping up in to the rafters, especially that opening 3A)! I would give him +++GOE on all his landed jumps because the speed & height he attains is remarkable. Too bad about the turnout on a few jumps, doubled one & popped another, and I think he might've fallen on one. Only thing I would suggest is that he needs to work on the break in his posture when he enters his jumps.

p.s. Kurt Browning used to jump like that, but I think this guy might edge him out in height!

And he goes into 2nd place!

**Tonichelle** · 11-07-2009, 02:24 AM

he's soooooooo cute I can excuse the mistakes

p.s. Kurt Browning used to jump like that!

still does, on occasion.

Weird, many of the audience are wearing white face masks. Swine Flu fear?

**Spun Silver** · 11-07-2009, 02:28 AM

This young man is not doing anything for me.

**ANW** · 11-07-2009, 02:29 AM

no, it's a japanese thing, people who are sick wear masks so they don't spread the disease to others

I asked a similar question last night, and apparently it's custom in Japan to wear masks if you're sick/getting over a cold and in public or something like that...

**life684** · 11-07-2009, 02:29 AM

Murkami looks so thin and small.

**Nadine** · 11-07-2009, 02:30 AM

I think this JPN man is the weakest out of all the Japanese men's team, however that's saying a lot because the entire team is extraordinary, but I would have it 1) Daisuke 2.) Takahiko & Oda tied.
