2025 CA Nebelhorn Trophy Men's Free Skate

[cocteautwin]

Well, you have seen the other skates right? Liam was almost clean...but everyone else.....

I did but still I thought he messed up more than Lucas, Kazu and Roman. but whatever, cacti are cacti

If Stephen keeps skating this well, he might get Canada's spot

Who would've imagined that in the final group Gogolev would be the least prickly

 

[lariko]

Wow, this was actually the best maybe since that JGPF. Would love him to keep it going this season.

 

[rabidline]

I gasped when Gogo started...... MY FAVORITE RACH 2 MOVEMENT!!!!! ROOTING FOR HIM TO WIN THE CANADA OLYMPIC SPOT IMMEDIATELY.

(the music cuts after though lol)

 

[elektra blue]

i guess Gogolev was the last man standing, congrats

 

[GGFan]

This is the last music choice I ever expected Gogolev to skate to. Interesting.

Congrats to him for landing a good portion of his content.

 

[labgoat]

No? Tech box shows Roman still leading..... or is that not correct

Roman leads the freeskate, but not overall - that belongs to Torgashev

 

[Ziotic]

I kind of love that Canada has sent Gogo and Roman to do nothing but heads to heads this year. That's some actual strategic planning.

 

[labgoat]

Stephen is going to win
The comeback kid

 

[Ichatdelune]

Only thing I can say is that Roman had better get his (bleep) together before Canadian Nationals or whatever the deciding competition for the spot is

 

[lariko]

Alright, I'm off to the gym, hopefully can catch up on Baku later in the day.

meanwhile my daughter Lara is winning the short at Nepela

 

[Seven Sisters]

Sorry Steven I found that rather uninspired. And, did he just stand there waiting for the glorious bit of the music to begin, so that he could launch into his final element? No bueno

I think I actually like Lukas’ free the best! But everyone struggled today

 

[readernick]

I did but still I thought he messed up more than Lucas, Kazu and Roman. but whatever, cacti are cacti

I think the things he did well, he did very well. Whereas the other men had very few very high GOE elements to compensate for the failed jumps/ spins. He's fourth in the free though... He's second overall because of the SP lead.

Good job Stephen! Not the performance or SS of the other men in this group but he landed more things..

 

[elektra blue]

off to Baku, i'll be back (and forth) for dance

 

[lileychristie]

Roman leads the freeskate, but not overall - that belongs to Torgashev

So the tech box here works differently from the usual tech box, usually in the free skate it will show the total leader and not just the free skate leader right

 

[cocteautwin]

Gogo I underestimated him badly but I'm happy that he proved me wrong.

 

[yelyoh]

AND THE WINNER OF THE MEN'S FREE SKATE IS....RINKY!!!!! And congrats to Gogo for clearing 240 easily.

Alas, I don't think it will be one competition.

So far it's one win for Roman and one for Steven.

They will meet again at SC and then at Nationals.

I can only imagine they will send the one who wins more times, and if they each win twice, then whoever has the higher scoring average.

Also, I think this win may put Gogo at the top of the replacement list for GP?
