2019 Europeans Men's Free Skate

[Ichatdelune]

Oh god I'm crying I don't care it wasn't perfect Javi Fernandez you beautiful man

 

[cathlen]

Javi could do better. But for two week preparations, that's amazing! But damn, that pop...

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Well, Javier had one < at least. But i think he will lead, based on PCS

 

[GGFan]

Javi's quads were absolutely gorgeous! So much depth and quality to his skating and presentation. They better give him all the PCS.

I will miss him so much!

 

[anonymoose_au]

Sobs! Bravo Javi! Bravo!

Give him the PCS, judges!!!

 

[DSQ]

Her turns out on a 3A was judged mostly with 0 or -1 GOE at the end, but maybe it was something more to deduct from positives (as telegraphing), or she didn't have that much positives to begin with (Samarin had very very good height for example)

That’s a good point.

 

[Interspectator]

Javi's skating has healed my eyes.
Thank you! :sad21:

 

[Danny T]

Wow, I'm crying :sad21:

I want him to be on the podium!!! One of the best skaters EVER!!!

 

[WeakAnkles]

Thank you Mr Fernandez. You will be Much Missed.

 

[LaArdilla]

TES dropping. PCS for Samarin was outrageous. Judges, don’t disappoint me.

 

[gonewiththewind25]

I’m literally crying. Actual tears.

 

[Noxchild]

if samarin gets 88 pcs surely javi deserves 100+?

 

[rachno2]

Thank you, Javi.

 

[Heleng]

I’m really going to miss Javi. I’ll never forget seeing his electric winning performance live at 2016 worlds.

 

[gonewiththewind25]

I have a feeling that the judges are going to give it to Samarin

 

[draqq]

A bit dicey on the +3T and that 2F pop, but Javi should be proud of this performance. Beautiful 3As, especially the second one, better centered spins than I've seen from him before, and a stellar 4S as well. This performance was genuine, heartfelt, and a summary of everything Javi is. Thank you for being a part of the sport! We'll never forget you!

 

[Ichatdelune]

If only he hadn't popped that flip... But still, what a beautiful, beautiful skater. The skating world will very much miss him

 

[pearly]

Well, Javier had one < at least. But i think he will lead, based on PCS

I doubt that, I don't think it was enough.

Scratch that!!! Well done!
