Yuhang had the deepest kneebend in the universe yesterday, according to BBC commentators

Eurosport Eurosport.

BBC would have got all the names right.

Hanyu.. love you you so much! That layout is worth 2 OGMs. Orser better stand by with an oxygen tank though.

 

[lady_bee]

the battle of the knee bends?

I hope so, I adore a good kneebend

Then, bring back Oda

 

[samson]

Oh excuse me I got his music wrong! I thought he was skating to Figaro, but it was La Traviata!

Sorry, silly American slip-up

 

[TMC]

Lord is Figaro gonna become a new Carmen?

That was La Traviata?

ETA I see you got there first

 

[Li'Kitsu]

Yes please!!

Well, with the way CoC has been going, Kovtun is pretty likely to beat Yuzu. As much as I love Yuzu and dislike Kovtun, it would be kind of funny

 

[Icey]

Why is he not skating while the music is playing? lol

 

[arashifordream]

Tanaka's costume is very distracting. Those frilly things.....it was flapping all over....

 

[sunnystars]

Yes please!!

If Kovtun wins the universe its going to explode

I don't want that

The ice rink will actually split open & hell will burst forth, spraying everyone with fire as demons fly about-

More falling

and popping

 

[WeakAnkles]

The ice rink will actually split open & hell will burst forth, spraying everyone with fire as demons fly about-

I think I saw program like that in Ice Dance...

 

[Madness-Overload]

The ice rink will actually split open & hell will burst forth, spraying everyone with fire as demons fly about-

And the audience will go nuts, all while Kovtun sits there with a little smile on his face

Nah, not the universe - just the internet

Seriously talking though, it wouldn't even matter all that much. It's the start of the season, Yuzu didn't win his GPs last season, everything's fine as long as he makes the GPF.
Kovtun winning would irritate me more than Yuzu loosing.
