2024 European Championships Men's Free Skate

Shame about the numerous errors as I wanted Makar to do well in the FS. This won't cut it. The score won't be high and for him 140 would already be very high, this will be much less.

I loved the choreography and his attention to detail. For me the most intriguing program so far. His costume is cool too.

His presentation is much improved from what it was last year when I saw it first time: he was then just sort of waving his hands weakly. Now it was much more crisp and actually more like martial arts movements.
But cold hard truth is, that with easy jumps you can't afford them to fail, and they did.

Another huge quad. Big strong guy has big strong quads.

That was the best Samoilov has ever skated.

Another slay skate

Our wild jumper Samoilov. You gotta love him for the cactus that he is.
Little known fact, he is also one of my favourite cartwheelers.

Forget Notre Dame (and the mediocre cuts) he is landing his jumps???!!!

Yeah, but only after falling in the Short and popping the Lutz today - Still, by far his best competition ever (not that that is a high mark to jump over)

There is a pun trying to come out, but after 20 hours awake my brain cannot finish the thought.

Vladimir. Nice outfit and program. His 4S is terrific. And a cartwheel..

 

[Zora]

Wow, he is crazy good, why that music? Gorgeous jumps!

 

[Ares]

This was just stunning after the lutz pop. His quadruple salchow is wonderful, it looked like he was levitating. And the feel of the music was great too from Samoilov. I shed a tear just like his coach.

Poland has not perished yet!

I thought Georgiis lead would last for long

 

[Ichatdelune]

Kinda - The pretty coach resembles my cousin Diana who lives in Vancouver

cotton eye Tomas time!

Bravo Vladimir! Not as polished as I generally like, but he cares about it, the passion, even the Cathedrale shirt.

Not to mention a cartwheel, and I like cartwheels.

We love to see a happy skater.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

And he finally has a PB that's above 220 - Though his potential is still a good 15-20 points higher at the minimum

very good program from Vladimir but the cartwheel felt a little out of place. overall very clean program! nice job!
