2012 Cup of China Mens Free Skate

[FSGMT]

Terrible collision between Rippon and Song, the Chinese looked really hurt, he could barely walk, I think he fainted... The men are back on the ice now... Rippon looks ok, but he's surely a lot more worried and nervous now!

[FSGMT]

Thanks. Only four in the warm-up? Looks like Nan Song pulled out?
I now hear from you, he collided w/ Rippon. Will he still skate?

No, I don't thik so at all!

[auser]

Adam Rippon collided with Nan Song, Song shaken, guided with help from ice, warm up interrupted

thank you paaja, I was trying to figure out what happened. I have tvteka but I don't speak russian.

He needs more tech difficulty to keep up internationally.

Ugh, Rippon is stuck with another terrible music choice. There's just nothing to grab a hold off, just a bunch of jazz trumpet flairs. Worse yet, Rippon isn't good with this athletic American broadway style; he's much better off showing off his classical lines and subtlety.

Rippon
Score: 133.67, total 205.48 and into 1st

[FSGMT]

Rippon skated quite good, but I don't like the choreography a lot, he looked forced, not natural but maybe it's because of the collision...

[Li'Kitsu]

Nan Song...
He has so much potential, but he just doesn't have any luck!
Hopefully he'll be back for TEB at least...

Voronov is skating really good, he could end on the podium...

I don't care for his skating, but he landed his jumps, and in this field it will prob be enough for medal.

How many times does Adam collide with someone in the warmup? I recall once with Chan? He should really pay attention.

[evangeline]

I'm almost offended by the utterly dismal "choreography" of Voronov's LP, nothing but the same music cuts of the love theme from Nino Rota's Romeo and Juliet over and over and over again, shoddily clapped together with a complete disconnect of his movements to the music.

Yuck.
