He left a bunch of points on the table with three doubled jumps that were supposed to be triples, but the first half was amazing. I love this FS and for the whole first half, I thought it was a superb performance--forgot I was watching a competition. Delighted for Patrick!
He doubled three planned triples, one of them is 3A. It's not a big champion material to skate without trixel.
Well I don't think anyone will dispute Chan's win today.
Great skating Patrick.
Chan's skating is glorious! Beautiful program.
Chan
84.21 + 92.70 = 176.91 (SB), total 262.35 (SB) and GOLD
Besides the no-3A skate it was a plain skating in terms of self-feeling and presentation. Still he got abnormally chanflated PCS for such a sloppy skate. As usual.
No, but haters gonna hate. :POriginally Posted by Mrs. P
Oda was so underscored in PCS.He actually finished 2nd in the FS. Having him behind Menshov and barely beating Gachinski is pretty ridiculous.
ETA: Kozuka also, for that matter.

Be careful... someone here will say that you have breathing problems.
They dont understand the meaning between breathtaking and breathless!
But, you are correct the program was breathtaking!!!
He will need to up the ante but I think that will come slowly to peak at worlds. GO PATRICK
Strange. The applause during his skate was faint and standing ovation after his skate was scarce. Couldn't the Russian audience appreciate a good skate?
the win certainly not, but almost 93 in PCS?! He was great, but THAT great?
Too funny! I guess you missed the opening of his program. Patrick is building his season perfectly. His choreography is on another level. Mixed in a a couple of perfect quads...the other couple of jumps will come. No need to be perfect now.
Agreed. A righteous win!
With PCS like these, I don't see how anybody else can really compete, though. That's a 20 point overall advantage in the FS alone. Maybe he should spot the rest of the field some advance points just to keep it sporting.
Haha, I didn't say people wouldn't dispute the scores....I made a point of not saying THAT.Agreed. A righteous win!

92 is a bit high in PCS...especially considering Kozuka didn't even break 80 for a very nice program!
