Fall on Oda's quad eeks. Hit everything else though.

Sidenote, I always find Oda looking a bit pale in the lips. They did a crazy zoom on his lips today and it appeared really dry and chapped. I just want to throw some lipbalm at him or something =/

He is one of best in the world! Including the best knees and best 3A.

An he just fell. Even the best does that sometimes.

I actually still really enjoyed him! He has a lot of really great energy and choreographic flourishes. His jumps also do look really strong, fall notwithstanding. I don't hold it against him (though part of why I no longer follow the men is it seems it is so often a quad splatfest...)

I think he has an awesome program this year and, despite the fall, he is the greatest jumper alive! That made me smile!:clap:

He really could not afford a fall here in the SP. I'm inclined to feel the 3rd spot for Japanese men at the Olympics is going to come down to Oda and Takahashi. With Dai's poor showing at Skate America, Nobu needs to shine here. It's unfortunate for him really.

Nobu doesn't look happy :( I missed most of his performance...noticed he fell on the 4T tho.
