The SBS man

It's funny the SBS man and sometimes the girl voiceover manage to mispronounce the names of skaters.
Scott "Mee-yor", "Geelyam" Cizeron, Andrew "Podge" :noshake:

 

[EdgeCall]

Whoops. Eight points go to the dogs.

 

[SpiffySpiders]

Quad Lutz from Dima then a quad combo! Then a 4toe! Yes!

I'll just ignore any mistakes from here on.

 

[Alchamei]

Now if the panel doesn't murder him this is going to move up a lot!!!!!

 

[GGFan]

The triple lutz is my favorite part of the program

 

[Lester]

I for one am waiting for a non-exhibition program to Ice, Ice Baby pick up the pace guys!

Maybe Jimmy Ma could oblige

 

[lavenderblossom]

I was about to say he's going strong and then he popped axel Great job Dima! He's gonna surge back up the rankings.

 

[Baron Vladimir]

This is probably the best he skated that FP so congrats

Oh yeah, I'm not sure who she is...although in her defence I'm not sure how to pronounce Andrew's last name either...is it 'Po-JE?"

Dima's working for it here, got a Level 4 step sequence!

 

[Alchamei]

He did it!!!! He survied it!!! He landed almost everything! YES!

Please don't burn out like many Russian men before!

Kolyada who? Aliev is my nr 1 man

 

[da96103]

SBS stands for Special Broadcasting Network here in Australia His name is Paul Aster, not sure what his connection to skating is but I assume he has one, he sure knows more than Canadian Jim who was with Belinda at the Olympics.

Here's Dima! Go Dima! He looks ready to go!

That does not fit. SBS is not Sun Bathers of Sydney?

[Roast Toast]

Serviceable skate that should be enough to secure the three spots for Russian men.

 

[Alchamei]

The score is coming down. Oh no.

The quad Lutz was under.

 

[EdgeCall]

This was good but could have been even better.

Work on, Dimitri, you are on the way up.

 

[Mirunna]

Nice fight after the pop! Hope he moves up a bit now

 

[Danny T]

The triple lutz is so nicely timed it gets me everytime.

Is it the music sucking the life out of me or is Dima's jumps quite tentative? Feels like they lack quite a bit of energy ...

 

[GGFan]

Absolutely adore Dmitri's musicality. So happy he was able to fight through that. Hoping he's one of the leaders of this next quad

Great skate from Aliev. The song style is a great choice for him, he has a lovely attention to how he holds his limbs to characterize the emotive content of certain portions - but he deserves better choreography, he can add a lot more nuance and detail (especially after the quads). Shame about the axel, and not sure about the rotation on the first 4T and 4Lz, but otherwise a nice skate.
