2023 Grand Prix Espoo Men's Short Program

[TT_Fin]

He got green from the stsq? The stumbling was choreographed? Edit: But it is great stsq.

Kao's program somehow has such an Adam feel to it.... then I remembered, oh yea Benoit

 

[Ruthypegs]

Both Shun and Kao are amazing athletes and skaters - but I don't connect with their skating.

 

[lileychristie]

Wait it was SLB? I thought it was Benoit

 

[yuumagical]

Kao!!! I might not love this short program, but I really love Kao's energy throughout the program!

The Italian commentator said that he had enough features for level 4 anyway.

 

[tsuyoboogie]

He almost lost it on the StSq after landing all his jumps
Anyway good skate, child!

So, So happy to see Noriko-sensei with him!

 

[lariko]

Oh, Rizzo, good luck and fingers crossed! Love this program.

 

[CellarDweller]

Men will be men........

 

[lariko]

Eh, well, not in the GPF then.

I love this program, we've had two booty shakes at the judges today and I am here for it. The jumps were not jumping, though, and Jimmy MF Ma will be in third come the free skate.

Jimmy listened to me

sadly i'm having my lunch break. cheer for the amazing cacti. see you later

You did good - he did well

I knew it, Mark was mistaken then. Kao's SP just has Benoit's smell all over it

 

[labgoat]

I’m leaving work now and will join you in next event…

 

[icewhite]

great now my second favourite Matteo is disappointed too

not the day of the Europeans

but he has all the qualities of a pro dancer

 

[TallyT]

Kao, Shun and Jimmy? Yes please, I'll take it

ps - and Kao and Shun are going to take some catching up if the others are to medal.

 

[lariko]

Well, at least I swapped Levandi for Memola at some point.... this sounds like another disappointing event overall, but I am happy Miura and Sato are in the lead.

 

[icewhite]

Kao, Shun and Jimmy? Yes please, I'll take it

I like them all a lot but I like Kevin and Matteo even better

 

[Jeanie19]

Kevin got highest pc's.
