2018 Worlds Mens Free Skate

[Alchamei]

Don't worry Keegan, we still love you!

Blame Evan Lysacek and the six triple rule he brought us. Kolyada already has a 2A in the backhalf. There’s no other good choice. That’s why they have him go for the 4Lz, even though he’s not consistent landing it in competition.

What do you mean?

 

[Danny T]

Ouch Keegan

 

[LittleLotte29]

Also I though Ottavio (sp) was the ISU President?

Here comes Keegan! This is a really cool program, so bring it on!

Ottavio Cinquanta was the ISU President up to 2016.

 

[Alchamei]

Okay, he needs 159.31 to maintain the top 10.

You're making me nervous.

 

[Sportfan]

A spectacular fall.....

 

[Alchamei]

He is so sweet! :luv17:

Ottavio Cinquanta was the ISU President up to 2016.

Gee I missed that whole thing

He was there yesterday so he must still be at the ISU in some capacity.

Wow! Keegan has a massive triple axel!

 

[schizoanalyst]

That was a very Chaplin-esque fall on the 4T. Should get bonus PCS points for interpretation imo.

I wish somebody would do a compilation video for babies of all the sleepy time and peek-a-boo moments this season. That would be so cute. [emoji480][emoji214][emoji64]

 

[leolion11]

Ouch only a double ((

 

[Alchamei]

Ooooohhhh, this will be close to Canada...

 

[cheerknithanson]

Please judges, give him 82+ in PCS. PLEASE.

Yeah sometimes a skater will have a fall that just makes so much sense with the music and it's like "They should get something for that."

I still feel like some of Javi's jump saves deserve extra points, I mean he actually defies physics I swear! (Yuzu also learnt how to do it!)

 

[BabblingBrook]

I came home just in time to see the last group - ayyyee

 

[Colonel Green]

Struggled a bit on a few of those jumps, but I really love his programs. He always brings the entertainment value.

 

[SpiffySpiders]

Not his best, not his worst. He deserves heaps of points for presentation and such but those jumps won't help him today.

 

[draqq]

Just a few too many mistakes for Messing. Popped the opening 4T into a 3T, a fall on the second quad attempt, and a popped 3Lo into a double. But really good 3As, especially the second one, and he never gave up on the choreography of the program. I hope that being in the final flight of Worlds helps his reputation in the eyes of the judges, because he's always been slightly undermarked in my book on PCS.

 

[GGFan]

I so wish Keegan could have gone clean! He probably has the best feet in the field. So quick! Glad he's sticking around for a couple more years. :dance:

ETA: That fall on the 4T deserved better than -3. There was style to it :dev2:
