Okay, I'm applying for a job as a costume designer. Please take me, take me!

Probably one of Beck's last international competitions.
He ages out of juniors this season, and despite the inconsistency of the current crop of American men, he will have issues competing without even a 3A.

He's a good skater, no doubt, with nice jumps and skating skills, but I was actually expecting more outward expressiveness based on the opening few seconds. He started getting very focused on his elements sometime after that.

triples were not behaving for Daniil today poor kid not his day

I really like his skating, but that costume is outragious.

It is, but that's why its great.

 

[icewhite]

oh please, Ted, stop it
It's all fine to be motivational, but how do you know this is going to be motivative? Maybe he's pretty depressed after this event. You just don't know.

 

[icewhite]

It is, but that's why its great.

Jeanie, we need to have a talk!

 

[icewhite]

By the way, does anyone know what's up with Hugo Hermann? I read somewhere he was injured? Is it something bad? I've adopted him, so I need to know.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

He really fought hard to not go down on those jumps didnt he

Juniors need to find their own style. And it makes the competition interesting.

One thing I like about Arthur is that he clearly enjoys skating a lot. He never quite manages to hit, unfortunately, but this was a good skate for him.
He too ages out of juniors this season, but with the German men's field, he won't do too badly in seniors either.

Youngest of the Lindfors siblings now.

Wonder which of his older sisters will be sitting with him today...

25 is the Tech minimum. Its nice to see quite a few are hitting that number and above.

Wait, you think he actually chose that costume?
Well, that would change everything. I don't want to tell anyone they shouldn't wear something they like. I'm just always assuming someone just gave it to them and told them "here, wear this".

He's going to be at JGP Gdansk. He did have a bit of an injury during the off-season, so he wasn't at the Jr Monitoring meeting but was able to show his programs together with the seniors.

Ah, cool, thanks.

 

[Jeanie19]

Matias. The costume is interesting. He has a lot of potential.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Oh I love this kid! the transition to that final spin was so pretty tho sadly the spin itself didnt work out. Not everything worked today but this kid has so much potential, I cant wait to see him improve over the seasons

 

[anonymoose_au]

Yeah whoo! Go Axel!

Nice stretch in some of Matais' positions. Looking forward to watching him grow.
