Too bad about the Zayak-ing (seriously, thanks for nothing Elaine Zayak, why'd you have to do 8 double toes in one program and ruin it for everyone), but I feel I should throw my hankerchief or fan to Michal while swooning.

I've just realized Czech Republic will have only one spot.

Okay, Brezina zayaks, Japan might get 3 slots, and go Bychenko?

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Slay to the best of your ability, Bumbleferret!

 

[Sugarpova]

Sergei in the warmup room!


goo Bychenko!!!!

 

[rollerblade]

No that's actually high for him. He is 10X worse than Park Soo-Hyun in stalking jumps.

What does stalking jumps mean?

Still need 2 more to falter.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Sergei sighting!

And that's the second Kiss & Cry area they've been talking about. Hmm, seems a bit awkward, like what if you usually go to the bathroom after your skate?

Wow the guy from Israel sure rotates his jumps fast!

 

[lady_bee]

I love Brezina's FP, so I want him to keep it for next season.
I want to see his perfect performance and gorgeous smile at the end.

 

[invisiblespiral]

What does stalking jumps mean?

Telegraphing them.

 

[bartlebooth]

What does stalking jumps mean?

having a long setup.

 

[ancientpeas]

What does stalking jumps mean?

I assume this means telegraphing them. I think Nam is just young and needs more time to develop.

 

[silverfoxes]

Brezina shows off his assets in those gray pants. OK - that is out of the way.

I have always wanted to like his skating. But somehow, no matter what he is doing, I find myself spacing out during his programs. What's that all about?

Yeah, for me it's similar. I know people will disagree, but I find him quite similar to Kovtun... (with just a bit more maturity and artistry)

 

[karne]

What does stalking jumps mean?

Setting up for ages, really obviously, before jumping.

 

[Sugarpova]

i like when a skater recovers & fights!!

 

[lilithgothique]

Aah no... Fall

 

[Violet Bliss]

A long simple entry into a jump.

 

[ancientpeas]

on a side note, because I find it bemusing, I think between the ladies and men I've heard POTO 8-9 times in the last 12 hours.
