They meant Denis Ten. He posted what seemed like a retirement message on instagram, but then said in an interview that he wasn't retiring.

Ohhhh! Thank you! I walked in and just heard Denis and went wut! Priorities I guess. And thank you, good that he's staying. Hopefully injuries give him a break!

My friend on Twitter: "Imagine wearing Deniss’ jacket for non-ironic reasons."

My response: "Johnny would and you know it."

His jacket yesterday was an amalgamation of every fabric known to man

Wow, Deniss had such a hard fall and then he had to jump right back up and move fast because his music tempo changed. He handled it well.

 

[Roast Toast]

Deniss can dance his socks off and this program is far too uninspired for his talent. I hope Stephane can get him some better material next quad.

No cbc stream tonight?

It's on TSN 1, 4 and 5

My sister minored in Russian studies, she said it's not really that hard. At least it only has a couple dozen new symbols that mostly correspond to the Roman alphabet to learn and not thousands of kanji

I'm getting the alphabet okay, but I don't really have any vocabulary. I can just recognize names and pronounce them properly.

ETA: the hardest ones are the letters that look the same as in English, but are pronounced very differently. And the hard and soft signs - still have no idea about that

Well, if you didn't know that Lambiel was his coach already, you'd know it by the shocking speed and centredness of that last sit spin.

 

[invisiblespiral]

Deniss is a great performer.

(The 2a fall was scary, though. )

 

[CoyoteChris]

Where are all the people who bought those seats in the audience???????????????????

 

[SarahSynchro]

Mum commentary is the best commentary :yes: I wish we could get a stream with funny mom comments

Disagree. Survey says Yuzudaughter commentary wins, and I ain’t even being biased.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Aww, my poor baby is not having it with those axels today.

He's doing better with the upbeat part! arty: Genie spin!

Sway+Cool Spins makes me miss Alaine

Good effort Deniss! Use this opportunity to excel for 2022 and 2026

Sorry people.
I love Bublé.
I love this music.
Sorry not sorry I’m not as sophisticated as y’all:dev2:
And very sorry Deniss did not have a better outing. But he is a ray of sunshine, a spinning marvel, and can only improve

Deniss Vasiljevs

Much better 3A+3T than the underrotated one he got in the short. Tough fall on the second 2A. Solid 3S, though, good comeback! Smooth edgework through the step sequence into a decent camel spin. Nice spread eagles into a good 3Lo. Solid 3Lz+2T+2Lo but a hard fall on a 2A. Okay 3F+2T (might be < on the 3F). Stronger 3Lz and good attack in the choreo sequence. And a wonderful pair of spins to end the program, especially that last sit spin.

Sad that he had such trouble on the Axels today with 2 hard falls. But his triples were mainly clean and smooth, and his edgework throughout the program and the lean he has in his body to really dig deep into the ice is so pleasing. I think he could have been jazzier to match the Buble music, but he's still young and should have a great future.
