2019 Europeans Men's Free Skate

[cathlen]

I think on this competition, only Morisi (and presumably Paul) have....

Either way, there won't be Alexander in Japan Unless he'll get them at some Senior B...

 

[Chris Cooper]

Love Paul Fentz. Really like his skating style and he's very handsome

 

[kevinVchicago]

Vas-y Adam !

 

[cathlen]

Go Adam!

Well is a bummer, I think I just ran out of data in the middle of Paul!

I guess I'll wait and see if I can at least watch Javi and the Russians later.

 

[Noxchild]

rough skate but he got through it. go adam!

 

[cathlen]

Well, lots of mistakes, but he definitely fought for the points!

Do you have enough to follow along on GS?

Yup, and I think that music just doesn't suit him at all. Oddly enough, I was thinking I'd like to see him do something more lyrical, which would be a nice balance to his obvious jumping power.

I loved the end of the K&C between Brian and Adam
Brian (smiling): it's not bad!
Adam (not impressed): yeah, it's OK

Litvintsev does have a remarkable ability to jump on a beat, but that's otherwise a pretty empty program. He does look like he's going to enter puberty any day now, so it will be interesting to see how he develops.

Purple vest over white blouse, black pants

Difficult layout, but needs more power. Still bit juniorish look on ice

Litvintsev is a discovery of this Euros for me.

He did great - and he now has the qualifying score for Worlds

Just woke up and realised British Eurosport does not stream skating live today. Does anyone have streams other than ok.ru, because my TV somehow goes crazy when I open that one.

They do but just on the Player.

I just had to go to breakfast just before Sondres FS, and OMG i´m so proud! He done 2 really nice skates in Euros, and this will for sure be his best placement so far in his career in Euros. Also this total score is very close to his PB which he got in the Norwegian national, but this is also Euro judging, so that is really great! Also if he hadn´t done the small mistakes he might have reached the TES-score for worlds (that simple jump in the combination might be it, but) , but he is really close now. He is in a very good place now, so so i´m having my fingers crossed for the next competition. Either way, he is so happy, i´m so happy. He can be so proud of himself.

I also have to agree that I find this program a bit boring, I mean, the FS he had last year is my fav. so far by Sondre.

Now I have to catch up with the next skates!

Do you have enough to follow along on GS?

I do as I'm using mobile data on my phone.

Also it seems to be working again. My laptop might have just needed a restart.

 

[DSQ]

Have you seen the FS orderlies? After fourth they go a bit crazy. xD
