2014 Cup of China Mens Free Skate 11/08

[FlattFan]

Nam should have worn a red coat and draw hearts on the ice.

At this point, I really don't care. They need to be taken to a hospital, screw the medal ceremony.

154 for that skate makes Julia's 104 appear underscored.
And I love Hanyu.
And Maxim was so moved after Yuzuru's performance that he is bombing so that Yuzuru ends up winning after all

But Yulia popped quite a lot of jumps, so her BV is not there tbh (and it's a double whammy since BV is low, your GOE isnt so hopeful anymore) o:

Hanyu kind of rotated well, just couldnt hold the landing on so many

 

[juuryokunashi]

What a mess, Kovtun. :| And Yuzu and Han.

In fact, this whole CoC is a mess, really.

 

[sajoya]

Okay, judges, I do love Yuzuru, but that score was ridiculous. God.

 

[lbc2138]

oh shut it TES is math; and 84 pcs aka 8points below what he can get

Thank you! and that did factor in those awful 5 falls

 

[Shayuki]

OMG..................he's crying

So touched about getting overscored so incredibly hard, I guess.

And stream dies halfway through Kovtun's program. Sigh sigh sigh.

 

[HarvieKrumpet]

his couch just discussed with him on the K&C about heading to hospital taking a chest x-ray.

 

[adelia]

Kovtun just being Kovtun again.

 

[Madness-Overload]

I just imagine how destroye Yuzuru would feel if he wins this

 

[foruiz]

Please Yuzu, do not go to the gala tomorrow!

 

[juuryokunashi]

UPDATE from JPTV: Yuzu is on a stretcher and is about to be taken to a hospital. He is conscious and smiling. But yes him and Han Yan both need to get checked.

 

[begin]

I can't believe the universe had anything in store that would have me rooting for Kovtun (and YET).

 

[Ayeshoo]

Wait, so what's hanyu's current podium standing?

It's not the skater's fault. Blame the judges and the system.
And Kovtun was hot and cold, mostly cold

JPTV lied to me not half an hour ago

 

[adelia]

Dreadful mens competition. Just awful, on so many levels.

Bit messy, his TES is not higher than Hanyu. Will Hanyu win with 5 falls?!

FS: 75.02+83.36-1.00 = 157.38, 243.34, 1st (out of 11)

 

[daphna]

worst men competition ever. looks like Yuzu will win with 5 falls! Alyssa Czisny should seriously consider a comeback.

 

[satine]

Wait, so what's hanyu's current podium standing?

He will be second if Kovtun comes in ahead of him, otherwise first place?
