That free program feels like they had ideas for like three separate free programs and then decided to do them all at once.
 
Those were some weird music cuts, but a solid skate and nice jumps!
 
I like it when a male skater looks like he got his costume at Zara Men. But I also like Shoma's and Hanyu's costumes.

Andrei, I agree with Ted that he has it all and just needs to refine it. Very impressive.

Camden, he seemed way too intense, like he was giving it 110%, but in the frantic way rather than the motivated way. :( Oh well, even the best have an off day here and there.
 
Seems West Side Story is ver popular among US skaters. OK skate by Camden.

212.45 in second place

GO Joseph!
 
Poor Camden, I think he wanted it too much, he will learn to relax.

yes, West Side Story is a classic Broadway show by one of the US most celebrated classical conductors and composers. It will be a warhorse for years to come:) Still not crazy about ending on "Maria".....
