2022 NHK Trophy Men's Short Program

[Warwick360]

Of all these falls and shortcomings, I must say, the one that really surprised me was Frangipani.

After the way he started so solidly this season, I was not expecting him to do this. Also, I thought it was his score that was leading (as I had only started watching after Tomono), until I realised it was Yamamoto and not him who was having a night of his life.

Gabriele imploding is hardly a surprise, he's been a cactus his whole life

Congrats to Sota on his fantastic, clean SP and for being the first/only guy to top Kao's SkAm SP score so far

anyone know where to find replays? I set an alarm and slept through it

 

[16Olympics]

Except for Sota's performance the rest was underwhelming, sorry to say. But, the top 4 or 5 will be scrambled after tomorrow so that's something to look forward to!

 

[yelyoh]

Missed it all but so happy to see Sota up there at the top. He's becoming a good SP skater. Now if can just hold it together for the LP. He wound up with silver at his previous comp I believe so if he repeats / surpasses that he's in the Grand Prix final.

Same. I had some catch up to do. I clicked the isu link posted at the beginning of each event on the forum and it took me to YouTube. All the replays were there.

It's in the middle of the night for me and so I'll have to reply on youtube or the stupid NBC short recap over the weekend because of the no-replys on Peacock. I hate that. I feel like I'm missing most of the Grand Prix.

Who forgot to sage the rink?!

I did, I had to sleep, even though I stayed up long enough to hear Ted announcing the first group...and had bad dreams, probably as a result of feeling guilty about this...

They are and Juhnwan also is. But I'm glad I didn't skip other things for watching this competition live. Crazy many falls and pops...

Congrats to Sota with a great performance. Positive GOE on all his elements and a new personal best 96, 49!

 

[lariko]

Wow, that was rough. Hope for a better free skate! Except, obviously, Yamamoto. Yamamoto did great!

Prediction contest…

 

[TT_Fin]

Men were, well, very men. Next time I will be in audience, I hope I can scare Rinky to space.
