[YuBluByMe]

Ilia, how would you respond?

 

[EdgeCall]

Wow, Adam increased his SP PB by 5 points!

 

[lariko]

Oh, gosh, so worried now for Malinin

 

[snowflake]

All right Ilia... starting with a smile haha

 

[lariko]

Yeah, that's the GoE I wanna see for those jumps!

 

[momrk]

If he never has competition he won't improve and handle the pressure.

 

[cheerknithanson]

Oy.

 

[EdgeCall]

Ouch, fluke fall.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Lmao!

 

[CellarDweller]

wow.....bad error there.

 

[lariko]

Lol, playing with the audience too much...a random fall. The kid who can land anything lol....

 

[Skating91]

It was going to be close. It should be enough for Adam.

3A
FSSp4
StSq4 (fall in the beginning, he was girlbossing too hard)
CCoSp4

SP: 101.58 (1st)

ayyyy we got a Colantotte boy in the house! I like this program for him, he seems to have fun with it. He has now pulled off the Nathan Chen random faceplant as well as the Nathan Chen crazy quadsting. mmm idk about those components considering he splatted in the step sequence, that's the one place where your skating skills would get dinged

 

[lariko]

I love this magnificent brat so much.....

 

[snowflake]

 

[CellarDweller]

Ok, he's laughing about it, but he should not go into first with that error. Not with Adam being so great.

 

[Marirue]

Did Illia trip on something?

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Unbelievable, I'll eat my words. Ilia would have beaten Adam without that freak fall. What a great skater, blows my mind every time I see him.
