Yeah I am glad Javier took out the crotch grabbing in the opening. I guess it was part of the "exhibition" choreography.

what a cute and fun choreo haha

Agreed. The strategy that Morozov employs here actually reminds me of Yamada's on Kanako's SP. That is to say, they chose to showcase their skater's youthful energy and turn that into an advantage with an unabashedly cheerful/fun/cute program, rather than hiding behind some "conventionally mature" music that the skaters may or may not be able to skate to as well as the veterans do.

Go Patrick, Adam and Oda! :love:

I dunno if I like Patrick's costume so much. From the front I feel like giving him a maitre d' napkin and from the back I feel like giving him golf clubs. Meh.

Oda's costume is kinda cool.

Two clean Quads. His score will be huge even with the mistake on the Triple Axel. It didn't look like anything will get downgraded but I'll have to check the replay.
