It actually wasn't a jump; I'm not even sure it was footwork. It looked like he just tripped to me, but then again I was not paying all that close attention either, lol!
ETA: Nevermind, I just watched it back. He fell trying to go into a spin, hehe. I feel kind of bad to laugh but it WAS kind of funny.

Alex Kam from KOR just skated and he was FAB! :rock 
His skate to Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" reminded me in a way of Kevin Reynolds fabulous skate to "Stairway to Heaven" & "Immigrant Song" mix the year of the Olympics.
Alex has beautiful high jumps for 16 yrs. of age and is definitely going places.

So far so tragic....for the skaters and for us Canadian fans.
Ooops, not so tragic for the Korean.
No wonder, with Chan in his name. This is the Chan Dynasty, be they Patrick Chan, Dai-chan, Mao-chan, Alex Kang Chan Kam.........

I'm pleasantly surprised by these early skaters. Agree about the young Kam from Korea. He has what can't be taught - amazing fluidity and grace, in addition to being able to fly!

Back to tragedy. -3.
Very sad, Kim from KOR just popped two jumps, and the very sparse crowd is trying to rowse him. He looks like he's only 12 yrs. old.
And he's skating to a real cool western song, one absolutely cannot go wrong when going with "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly". *double cool emoticon*
Bravo to Clint Eastwood, the King of Cool.

His coach (who looks about 16 herself) looks as sad as he does. This was the first sad skate for me. Most of these guys are skating well with only one mistake. It reminds me of what a cruel sport this is (in spite of the kind audiences). So much talent and hard work, so little glory.

Lol I'm trying to multi-task, feeding my Chihuahua, cleaning up, preparing dinner, getting off the phone with my cousin, aunt, sister, et al, and managing to follow my IN video screen as much as possible.
This reminds me of the Olympics, the first groups were not memorable except for Brian Joubert, Jeremy Abbott, my fav from Sweden (he skated to "Insane in the Membrane"), and maybe one other, but when the final elite group comes out there's absolutely nothing else like it. The difference between the last group versus the rest is immeasurable, the chasm is that deep.
Allright, there's Nan Song in the mix, I knew he was going to be a star when I first saw him at 2010 Skate America in that bright yellow shirt & black slacks.
One minute to go, then BAM!!!!

This young man from Brazil is teen-idol material. He's beyond cute. He skates pretty well too!

his equilibrium seemed off, and there's Mr. Sato in the K&C with him.
Maybe the altitude is getting to some of the skaters.
