[elektra blue]

well done! not the cleanest program but fun to watch. this boy has a lot of potential

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Quite impressive performance by Mark!

Music and costume do not match. Music sounds Irish. Costume screams modern.

I correct myself.. what is this music?

70s black action movie music

70s black action movie music

I thought Summertime was from a musical? Didn't Masha Sot skate to it once? Must be a different version or entirely different song.

Here comes Group 2! Go Artem K! Go Sasha S! And Anton S - now you've changed your free you can get a cheer too!

Plushy, I'm judging you for the mask fail

it is, but the style of music reminded me of that kind of movies

Once again Sasha S's costume is too understated! Maybe he needs to start a Go-Fund Me to cover costs.

Oh yeah, I forgot Anton S is totally in the crazy shirt competition this year! I think he may win it, honestly!

I feel so sad that Artur isn't here. All my favorite Russian skaters seem to be injured at the moment. Artur, Ksenia, T/M... at least Kolyada is seemingly doing well.

Vovan (aka Vladmir M) seems to healing well from COVID though, there's some videos of him and Zhenya T practicing, they look good!

I miss Artur though

 

[Jontor]

Go Anton!!

Oh I know, but it seems...bland.

I still can't get over the Greatest Showman costume he had a few seasons back, seriously it looked like he picked up at a $2 Shop, I felt for him.

Anton S is at least skating to song with Oles in it, so the bull on the back makes sense. Good luck Mr Lenova!

Okay, while seeing every single Russian coach wearing a mask incorrectly is kind of funny, it's also super frustrating. I want to walk around with full PPE and yank them up.

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Ole Ole Ole

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Olè!

 

[elektra blue]

olè!you know, guys? i think i kind of like both the performance and the shirt

 

[anonymoose_au]

Ole!!

Seriously I really love this program, it's so cool!

Anton is living dangerously though! He's got a 4 lutz and a 3 lutz in his combo - he better hope he doesn't pop!

 

[Jontor]

OK skate by Anton. But he still isn't around on that 4Lz, is he?

After watching, I like the shirt. (plus it is a thousand times better than that horrible offensive costume from last year) . Count blessings while you may......

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

and the shirt

this part worries me a bit...
