Made the 3A though

**MrScroogeMcDuck** · 12-10-2011, 05:49 PM

LOL. I was right!

**LaLola** · 12-10-2011, 05:49 PM

Fall! Sometimes he seems just lacking in concentration to me.

**museksk8r** · 12-10-2011, 05:50 PM

And the errors continue to pile on; he shouldn't win this with this performance.

**demarinis5** · 12-10-2011, 05:50 PM

Another fall for Patrick.

**skateflower** · 12-10-2011, 05:50 PM

Messy Chan continues his falling streak. Of course, he'll win as usual with those falls.

**FTnoona** · 12-10-2011, 05:51 PM

Quite a few wobbles on jumps and a fall on the 3Lutz but Chan should still win with the 10 point lead over Takahashi

**prettykeys** · 12-10-2011, 05:51 PM

oh, Patrick was a little off. I hope it wasn't that stupid controversy-out-of-nothing that rattled him.

**DancerLily** · 12-10-2011, 05:51 PM

I'm so not fan of Chan:/ GO Daisuke!!!!

**Nadine** · 12-10-2011, 05:52 PM

This is Zhenya's music. All the time it plays I cannot help but think & picture him and his exquisite 2009/2010 Olympic SP.

Back to Chan, messy performance per usual. Two foot on opening quad, hand down on second, twofoot on tacked on triple, fall on another triple. But more than enough to win b/c Daisuke was too far behind in the SP.

Chan is beatable, but nobody competing today has it in them to skate clean and kick some tail. EXCEPT Zhenya, of course, except Zhenya.

**LaLola** · 12-10-2011, 05:52 PM

Tense looks on Daisuke's and Javier's faces. Patrick seems quite relaxed though.

He has credit stored? lol I've been following him (not stalker-like, just his scores, and how he is doing) and while of course he was unpolished, I could see that he had a lot of talent, he has elevated his ranking a lot, and now that he is training in another environment, he's just getting better. I think Morozov gave him personality, and Orser is just bringing out what a great skater he is. I think we'll see great things from him.

Honestly I can't think of corruption from the Spanish FS Fed, it is not that big of a sport, and it is because of Javi, Sara/Adria and Sonia that it is starting to pick up.
