I prefer Smart/Dieck

[museksk8r]

I find Adam so much more engaging as a performer than Ilia. I see more commitment and heart from Adam in the PCS.

 

[Seven Sisters]

And me—love Smart & Dieck

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

new costume for Lukas? go Lukas!

Adam's program will definitely get better by Worlds, but I liked his FS more last year. Great 4Lz and 4T.
Choreographically, I hate that he just lies down on his back for 2+ seconds in the middle of the program and then also later has another pause where he's not skating. Way too many breaks and lying down feels a bit like cheating.

Adam lands into a stop. All the speed on take-off is gone by landing.

GO Lukas... nice start!

I knew Adam would bring it back in the LP. Good for him.
That's the only Dune program I will be having this season.

There's a junior's program that I really liked, but his name escapes me at the moment.

Yikes, Lukas used to be a more consistent skater. What is happening to him here?

I would normally agree with this. I hate the over-extended pauses.... BUT in Adam's case, he gives so much intensity all way through, that it does work.

Matias Lindfors?

Matias Lindfors, I assume

 

[snowflake]

Sad to watch

 

[Ichatdelune]

3A2A1T, the numbers in descending order weirdly pleases me

We are not having a good spin day eh

 

[Warwick360]

Not the men's competition I want to remember at this point.

Do you? I, personally, don't. Better SS, yes but he's often checked out until the StepSeq imho. I think Ilya is actually a decent performer it's his SS that let him down.

Lukas is having a bit of a rough start to this season. I love his musicality and pacing. I think he may just need more time to settle in this season. Lukas - you are a wonderful skater and one I always look forward to seeing. Heal up if it is injury, be kind to yourself and patient with yourself.
