He really did fight for that, hopefully will get better with time

Where Ilia should and does shine: junior worlds. A superb junior skater and working his way to the senior ranks.

So glad to see him improve in spins and speed other than jumps. Take out one of those quads and add some steps and presentation, and you can challenge on the senior level, my boy.

Nicely done.

Ilia. He is phenomenal.

 

[momrk]

Wonderful skate from Ilia!!!

 

[cheerknithanson]

I was too nervous to watch. I'm going to rewatch it once the score comes up.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Seriously?

Okay, now he’s won.

 

[yume]

Quad God slayed. Well done

 

[yelyoh]

AHhhhhh Yesssss!!!! That demolishes his worlds LP.

 

[mrrice]

Okay, now he’s won.

The golden age may be over, but the golden age is just beginning for Ilia! Good job, I knew Ilia could do it.

 

[cheerknithanson]

YES YES YESSSSSSS

 

[Lutzedge]

Ilia just makes it look too easy!

 

[4everchan]

well done boys.... i feel badly for wesley.... pretty much one of his worst skates of the year, just shy of the podium

 

[EdgeCall]

Congrats Ilia! Clear and deserved Champion.

 

[momrk]

Really looking forward to watching his skating continue to mature and evolve over the next quad

 

[Giu]

Ilia is a wonderful talent and of course I agree with the placement, but not with the pcs

 

[el henry]

YES YES YESSSSSSS

So happy for you @cheerknithanson . But in juniors, there is never a doubt, he's the top of the field. Ilia represents NoVa with distinction.

 

[TontoK]

Well, that's an emphatic win.

The lack of the choreo sequence has a larger impact than I imagined for the junior men. Without it, it's difficult to see their personalities shine.

 

[mrrice]

Ilia is a perfect Heir To The Thrown for the US Men.

 

[16Olympics]

Yay for Ilia!! Solid under pressure. So glad for him to end the season with this win. Lots of time to work on the refinement and presentation.
A little sad for Wesley b/c he's so wonderful. As for Stephen, I hope this is the beginning of a better chapter for him.
