2021 Finlandia Trophy: Men's Free Skate

[katymay]

Oh my. Every entrance crooked. This is difficult.

 

[Dogo]

That flip take-off was so pre-rotated. Dima is just so messy on how he lands his jumps. Compared to Semenenko, I don't know what to think. Evgeny is messy overall but lands things more or less clean-ish. Dima worries me because he is messy when he lands and his take offs are a bit unclear. To be honest, I don't know if he has enough stamina for a full clean FS.

 

[Beckaboomer]

Ahhh... Majorov having a bad time.

He gave it his all on the step sequence but it was too messy for me to really get into it by then.

 

[karne]

See, Swedish OC? This is what happens when you put such enormous pressure on your skaters to get such impossible scores. They push themselves too hard.

Send him anyway, you children-born-out-of-wedlock.

 

[flanker]

Poor man. It seems his yesterday's success brought fear into his head

 

[Kathy1]

This performance by Majorov, sadly, is even more problematic than the Swedish Federation's criteria for allowing skaters to compete at the Olympics.

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Oh no please Nikolaj don´t hurt yourself on those falls

 

[Jontor]

Poor Nikolaj. Jumps not there today. 6 deductions if I recall correctly.

 

[Hyena]

Ugh, he looks so disappointed and frustrated. I hate how much pressure he must feel to be allowed to use an Olympic spot he earned.

 

[EdgeCall]

Funny, Nikolai makes even his mistakes look like they are part of the choreographed drama. Great flow and energy, great performing skills and connection to the audience, I just wish his tech skills were on par. I already like him better than his brother.

 

[moonvine]

At this point in time, this is Camden being Camden.

Exactly my thought.

 

[flanker]

He doesn't want to hear it.

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

If they really don't let Nikolai and Josefin go to the Olympics we should write an open letter to the Swedish Fed. maybe figure skating fans from all over the world could change their mind?

 

[LiamV426]

Nikolaj! I was rooting for you! We were all rooting for you!

That score hurts so much.

 

[Jontor]

Well, that was hard to watch. I sooo feel for Nikolaj.

 

[flanker]

So Misha, what about you?

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Go Misha!

 

[karne]

Oh god, he doesn't even want to hear it. My heart.

 

[chasingneverland]

Oh he couldn't even listen. Oooh. Ugh at the Swedish committee for putting SOOO much pressure on their skaters.

 

[snowflake]

GO Misha!
