I dunno what's happened to his jumps. He doesn't look as enthusiastic in that program as he used to either.

Horrible skate for Verner...this works now http://playtv.fr/television/france-2/
Wow, he was nearly last in the free.

Note: SMC (Swedish Main/Male Commentator) said that Alexander Majorov will NOT be doing a quad as he has "hurt himself" - "as mentioned earlier", but as I missed the beginning of the broadcast, I don't kow how he "hurt himself". "We're just as glad about that, as his triples are so good, " added SMC. (And yes, that's what he said.)

He landed the jump, though they were quite telegraped. His posture could use some improvement as well.

Nice skate from Viktor, he looks happy with his performance.
It's a shame that he doesn't have the jumps, because otherwise Pfeifer is really a joy to watch. So musical! If this were the 70s, he could give John Curry a run for his money.

Gooo Brian!
btw, did Tomas clear TES 65 at any previous comps this season?
I just realized Tomas V. has the lowest TES so far in the event.
Kovtun with 4 combos?
