Ah man.

I love this music and especially that timing for the step sequence. I don't think this was quite at the level I'd like in choreography but either way, I liked it quite a bit.

Now just to hope that Fernandez drops to Bronze, I really ... well, am not his fan.

Javier and NHK do not get along. This feels like deja vu from last year with a U.S. man there to seize the medal. Could Jeremy sneak in for bronze?

That said Javier can do this program better. I loved it at Japan Open.

How could Jeremy not sneak in for bronze? That was a disastrous skate for Javier. I'm not a big fan of his, but I feel sorry for him.

Disappointing skate. Lots of costly pops. He may be moved off the podium

Score: 66.03+80.64-1.00 = 145.67, 230.45, 4th out of 8

Dislike Fernandez's costume and program.... :/

Without the jumps, his skating looks sorta laboured, and not very exciting imho.

Fernandez bombed big time.

An extremely impressive amount of transitions in that program though. A lot of connecting steps.

Fernandez is so off tonight. He looks exhausted too. Sad.

Yeahhh, sad. He looked really heavy/labored/tired throughout to me. Will his SP score be enough to get him the bronze or is it going to go to Jeremy?? *suspense*

Wow, I did NOT expect Abbot to be on the podium but there it is.

Wow. Jeremy might medal... He really IS pulling a Tukt.

Adam might also hang onto 4th...

Is it me, or does Javier look kind of hampered like he's injured and does not have freedom of movement?
