Even Peter Curuthers (sp?) is saying he should keep this LP for next year...I can't believe I"ve become 'one of those fans' that wants skaters to reuse programs, but I want to see this again and again and I ant to see him nail it perfect and more than once!Originally Posted by Jammers
Jeremy could not handle a failed quad but he's learning to handle a landed one.
Well, I give credit to Jeremy for the fight he showed here. He could've gone down on a lot of these jumps, but he didn't. It's a lovely program and he's a lovely skater.
That was exactly what I felt.
No, no! I know Jeremy lost points at the end, but he should have received higher on the technical score. Didn't Adam get a higher technical score? The judges must have downgraded on GOE a number of Jeremy's jumps. Not good.
Go Hanyu.
YUZURU !!!!!
Oh no! Comes back nice though!
He skated it very clean at Nats -- only a minor doubled jump at the very end. Not a fail really. He was so nervous here. Gosh, I think what CoP asks of these guys is a bit too much. But someone needs to rise above, and IMHO it is not really Patrick that often either, despite him being held up high when he does make mistakes.
He gave a lot of points away, singled a jump (I think a salchow) and had to fight for a lot of landings. I didn't count revolutions on spins or look at centering, but he4 did get a level one in the sp, so we'll have to look at protocols when they come out. I'm happy for him that he did fight....he can take that fight into next year and hopefully build on it. He is, though, capable of so, so much more. Just hope he has the kind of moment some day on the the big stage as he so deserves it into terms of talent.
Yuzuru!!! I love you!
Peter Carruthers has a very unhealthy obsession with the butt spin. Give it a rest, man. It's COP, so that spin is here to stay.

Very strong performance, except for the fluke fall!
I really don't think Jeremy should be behind Denis, since Denis wasn't clean either. Denis was a bit smoother on most of his elements, yes, but I think Jeremy's program was more difficult.
my hopes for Hanyu podium finish. ruined
maybe next year
