Heung Lai had a crash with a flock of birds...it didn't end well

Oh no I just saw Hyungyeom withdrew, I hope he didn't get injured from those scary falls in the SP

Ach, I thought you meant he had fallen, and I was thinking "but he's only just started! Is my stream behind?!"



Yeah, I see what you mean.

By the way, I did a search for a pigeon feather shirt to illustrate this post. And although I didn't find exactly what I was looking for, I smiled when I saw this:

Seems appropriate for us.

I'm with you on this. It shouldn't matter whether it is made up of 1 score or 2 scores, a higher score is a higher score.

That is how it works in Ski Jumping. If somebody's combined score after both of their jumps is lower than the score of somebody who has only done their first jump, then the jumper that did 2 jumps goes behind the jumper that did 1 jump.

But things work in strange ways in figure skating.

Exactly, I also thought about ski jumping analogy. The only logic would be that you need to complete both segments to be ranked but often some skaters don't even qualify to free skate and still they are ranked. No sense at all but it's figure skating

Can anyone enlighten me what's going on with Jun and military exemption? Does he need to win this particular competition to get it? Or podium is enough?

He has to win AWG, or podium at the "normal" oplympics.

Go Yu-Hsiang Li! Adoptive brother to my son Yan-Hao Li

 

[elektra blue]

Hu-Hsiang the firecracker!

Thanks for clarifying. Wow, that's not going to be easy with Yuma, but I guess he's quite motivated.

Nice skating from Yu-Hsiang, good recovery from SP.
(don't mind the score too much here....it will be better at 4CC!)

 

[cocteautwin]

Great skate by Yu Hsiang I really like to watch him and I like this song.

 

[auser]

Li's energy and springy jumps are fun to watch. Well done.

 

[lileychristie]

Yu-Hsiang killed it!!!

 

[lileychristie]

WOW great triple axel from the Filipino guy!! First of the night?

And I like his name too, Paolo Borromeo sounds so cool

 

[lileychristie]

I like Paolo, he's a great performer indeed! Hope to see more of him around
