    Except for the tad shakiness on the 3A, everything else was truly SUPERB! BRAVO, ADAM, BRAVO!

    I love this program for Adam but the jumps aren't spectacular enough to compete here IMO. But what gorgeous spins - position and speed - and fw, and I love the way the momentum builds. This program brings out his latent macho side. Ends with a big smile.

    Nobunari Oda

    Music: Memphis Soul Stew

    3A - nice, spread eagle entrance
    3F - stepout, hand down
    FCSp - a bit slow
    3Lz - no combo
    SlSt
    CCoSp
    CSSp

    To bad about the jumps... is he still hampered by injury?

    Poor Oda. I was just admiring his skating as a league above everyone else so far and he messed a jump and so the combo.

    I would put Oda's program below Adam's; except for the gorgeous spread eagle into 3A, his other jumps weren't quite on today, and when Oda's jumps go, there isn't much else imho.

    this is a great program for Rippon as it really highlights his strengths of grace and delicate style; I do love his rippon lutz when he does it well, and only wish he had a little more power/strength in those other jumps; maybe a tad more speed too. But he is beautiful to watch and it is so great to see him appear happy or content.

    Poor Oda...what happened to the jump? was that his combo he missed? Love him...hate the air piano playing.

    Oh, too bad!!
    I loved his pancake spin with one arm down, then the other - his shirt really showed it off. It looked simply impossible.
    His English is so good, I didn't know.
    Please come back in the FS, Nobu!

    Brezina should do very well in the SP.

    Was Brezina planning a quad in the SP? I can't remember. Not as sharp as SA, IIRC. But one of the best SPs of the season when he's at his best.
