Kevin REYNOLDS (CAN)

Music: Chambermaid Swing by Parov Stelar

4S+3T - bit eeked out
3A - perhaps UR
FUSp
4T - hangs on, perhaps UR
CCSp
StSq
CCoSp

Ambitious jumps, but will have to look on replay for rotation...

Way high on component score for Yan. He's a great jumper but he doesn't have everything yet. Judges are blinded by the jumps, apparently.

His skating skill is one of the best on the field. You are the one who is blind.

[seniorita]

Low TEs for Kevin, no?

Aaa Daisukeeee

[sky_fly20]

[Orange Cat]

4CC Kevin REYNOLDS

[snowflake]

Wow, Kevin is really lovedby the Japanese audience

[Mirunna]

Disaster for Daisuke I can't watch anymore

[Art&Sport]

kozuka, oda, maybe machida, who can easily over take american champion, are all not qualified for the competition. That is called freaking depth.
I agree that lots of countries would be happy having your skaters, maybe more than 95% of the countries in the world. Unfornately that does not include japan, canada, russia, france, china...

Ya think. Well, why does everyone want to train in the U.S.? Seems to me Canada, Russia, France and China aren't so stocked with talent that they wouldn't love to have guys with the talent that U.S. guys have. Skaters from all those countries and including Japan certainly go outside of their country often to get help ("polishing") from coaches in the U.S. and other countries.

Japan and the United States are the only two countries in the World with great depth in the men's field.

My point is that these countries are not going to be jealous of "the freaking depth" of America, even though they do not have the depth.

Your kidding right? Russia won't let Plushenko retire because they don't have anyone else Canada has Chan and virtually no one else and France has nobody after Amodio and Joubert. That's called depth?

[sky_fly20]

Nooooooooo for Daisuke !!!!

I hope my Prince will do the best
good luck my Prince Hanyu

Your point is NOT taken. It has no meaning or depth! :P

Daisuke TAKAHASHI (JPN)

Music: Moonlight Sonata by L.v. Beethoven

4T - stepout
3A - fall
FSSp
CCSp
3Lz+3T - ok, perhaps UR on 3T
CCoSp
StSq

Two big mistakes, sadly... Nice enough program - not sure if it's an improvement over the old one.

[Orange Cat]

Did I jinx Daisuke?? Step-out and a fall in the first thirty seconds or so

Amazing footwork, second half was brilliant, but the first thirty seconds... just

[Ambivalent]

Daisuke's SP for me is the best of the year. Jumps be damned. That is all. (Looked dashing in the blue too).
