2019 World Championships Men's Free Skate

[Heleng]

Always disappointed for those who didn’t have the skate they worked so hard for, but what a great competition overall. Congratulations to the medalists!

Well they did use to get a Lalique vase which will pretty isn't very useful. I guess you can serve chips in it

Y'know at this point for the JGP it just might be better to give them shirts with 'JGP (insert color) Medalist' or something that way it'll be of use at least

The gulf in scores in the top four... BETWEEN the top four are anime-level ridiculous... people will scroll by on Wikipedia and wonder what the heck happened

As always, Nathan is just so thoughtful and elegant right on the spot, and of course he wouldn't want the camera to stare at him during Jason's k&c come on!! Btw his interview went so much better than like every other winner's interview I've seen this season Both Nate and his translator were ON POINT.

Nathan was so very appreciative of the fans in his interview, that was great to see! He respects the "raining of the Poohs"

I think they fought hard in the FS. That's the best FS ive seen from Misha.

They definitely fought back. Losing one spot is a shame. But looking at ice dance, it was the same situation. The whole world fell apart for the proud Russian ice dance nation and boy, did they come back this time!

LOSES! Loose is when one loses weight and their pants become looser

Sorry english is the 3rd language I learned. Thanks for correcting

Take all the naps you want, and while I'm not that upset about Junhwan's results I'm goddamn upset about the state of his ankles Why do my two TCC men disregard their precious, precious ankles so

I’m srill so angry that he had to do another competition before Worlds. I just can’t. I know that one wasn’t Kfed’s fault, but still. :curse: he was magnificent in December. Why? Why?

That one... (deep sigh) Blame it on college and him being in 12th grade this year, and I'm still, yes two months later still frustrated at him because he could've won the thing with only triples and 2As BUT he attempted three quads and landed two of them (not to mention all the 3As ) KSU is of course the root of all evil and can go to hell and beyond, but 1)that darling needs to take care of his ankles more and 2)HE NEEDS GODDAMN FITTING BOOTS

Yes, some men must be very disappointed with themselves.

The medalists however were so much better in content and presentation. Those three skaters delivered awesome performances!!!

One thing struck me, the medalists are all very slight. Seems rotating those multiple quads and difficult series and sequences favours a slight and lean body shape.
While the compact and short skaters like Majorov, Messing, etc. are probably better in the power jumps, this leaves the tall and lanky skaters like Morisvilli, Brezina etc somewhere standing in the middle.

Young, Yelim, Dabin and Jun all had boot trouble!!!! I can’t believe four top athletes had struggles with equipment this year! Something big has to be done! This was ridiculous!

 

[DSQ]

Who knew that it will be Pairs that save this horrible event for me... [emoji26]

Oh no don’t say that! It’s been a lovely WC. So many great performances.

I have lots of respect for anyone that speaks multiple languages. Loose and lose are a common problem for native English speakers as well.

I can't believe it happened either, well not Junhwan because he never has fitting boots Really, we should award a company that manages to make Junhwan boots that last more than a month

 

[Yuzuruu]

Oh no don’t say that! It’s been a lovely WC. So many great performances.

I know it was, the competiton was fierce and great but I am emotionally wrecked and gutted for Yuzu [emoji26] I will give it to Nathan though, he is one tough cookie and deserved it.

Damn you quad sal for eternity!

Better yet "I won Gold/Silver/Bronze at JGP France and all I got was this lousy t-shirt!"

 

[DSQ]

And congratulations to Vincent, too. Two Americans on the World podium. When was the last tine we saw that in men’s skating?

After the season Vincent has had, I’m so proud. The only things to make it better would be Jason in 4th and PJ in the Free.

I'm sad that Yuzuru didn't get to win either, but I'm trying to think that it could be a chance for him to care more for his ankles (and not the way around and make him care less god forbid). As a notorious fangirl what I do is: 1)be upset for a while 2)look at cat pictures or something else that makes me smile nonetheless 3)try to forget about it for a while 4)think of the future and believe it's going to turn out better, way better. If it helps I can send you some cat pictures via PM

If Korean is your first language, your facility with English is truly remarkable, respect! Sorry about Jun, the good thing is that he’s so young and still very far from reaching his potential. I’m really looking forward to seeing him develop in the years to come!
