2016 Europeans Men Free Skate

Fernandez, Bychenko, Brezina in that order would make my day! But Brezina will do his best to destroy my dream podium...
 
Oh my god the Pathetique face again, why...why...why!!!???!??!?
 
Not as good as GPF, but yay for upgraded content! :cheer:

And enough for a well deserved 4th title :love:
I need to test a new layout in competition before Worlds. Now where could I do that and still win, hmmm.... oh look, Europeans is right around the corner
:roll9:

RIP facial hair:(
:console: it's not dead, it just sleeps really tight right now. Just wait until the SP at Worlds and it will magically reappear :yes:
 
Russia, please, stop promoting Kovtun as the next big thing...he is not that!
Kolyada, Pitkeev, Petrov, Aliev - please, help!

Kovtun is the Russian Zombie. Just as you write him off, he will show up and somehow pull a clean skate. Just as he did after he bombed NHK trophy :dev2:
 
I actually quite like Kovtun's skating, sometimes I think as well he's overscored and his quads technique is not good but I think he has good musicality and feel for the music. He just need to train harder in these compartments and have better programs.

Kovtun's not my favorite skater, but to see him hold back and in pain like that just makee me hurt, too. Poor guy. I really like this FS, wacky as it may be. His heart obviously wasn't in it tonight after that fall.
