Men's Short Program

Poor Adrain.

Patrick is next. I hope he doesn't want it too badly and will just focus on the program.

What a forgiving scoring system.

Didn't Plushenko fall on his quad, not completing the combo in SLC, and ended up in fourth after the short?

Oh no, a freak fall for Adrian, 2 in all with the fall on the quad. This isn't a standout program in any case. Shame. He's so talented. Oh man, that score is brutal. Cheer up, Adrian. There's next year to work on!

Wow, Patrick. Was there a single mistake? He was so relaxed - I thought he was going to start doing handsprings at one point!

I preferred Brian's SP the whole season, but this time I liked more Amodio....maybe it's because I just had two coffee and I'm in my extraenergic phase... XD

Patrick's next. Uh oh...

**draqq** · 04-27-2011, 08:30 AM

Finished 3F+3T, turn-out on 3A, slipped right off his landing edge on the 3Lz and a fall on the footwork sequence. Double eek. The lack of intensity doesn't help his cause with the dramatic music and the heavy bass, either. Tough performance.

SP: 58.41

Tough year for Adrien. OMG. I don't think he's going to qualify for the free. :(

**blue_idealist** · 04-27-2011, 08:31 AM

OH MY GOD will he not make the FS?

I bet Sweden's regrettting leaving Kristoffer Berntsson at home.

Ryan's low TES could also be explained by his slow spins and footwork as well. We will see...

OMG. I feel for Adrian. He's so much better than that!
His smile is so cute!!

I think I'm the only American that doesn't like Ryan Bradley's skating because of his skating skills and think he has the right placement for that reason.
