2025 CS Nepala Memorial Men's Free Skate

[jgg220]

Screeching violins, unnecessary sound effects, and dying at the end--this reminds me of European ice dance in the '90s, which would normally be a good thing. . . .

What is it with the US men? It's an Olympic season and half of them don't have costumes ready.

disaster for Jacob i hope he gets back his consistency now that he's a senior

I know the easy answer to this is “he needs a new coaching team,” but in this case, it really is true.

He also needs to work on his stamina, I think

time for his eminence cardinal Grassl, here to give me the last rites...i'm dyiiiiiiiiiiiing

 

[jgg220]

Any time a judge gives Grassl positive GOE on a jump, a trap door should open under them and they should be exiled and banned from ever judging another event.

4Lz -GoE, 4Lo, 3S (supposed 4S), 3A fall, 3A+2A+2A, 3Lz+3T -GoE, 3Lo+3T.

 

[elektra blue]

so he became pope in the end? can i suggest the name? Sixtus Sextus

(he messed, i don't feel well, the vatican has NOT sponsored this program...maybe...)

 

[Seven Sisters]

I found myself losing interest as that proceeded, and I fear Daniel did too, as he finished well after his music.

Not enough dramatic tension, I think

i don't know who gave him the idea, De bernardis i guess, you know some people have to play the out-of-the-box-thinker no matter what, as if it was their job. the program is not interesting, has not focal point, it doesn't tell a story, i hope he drops it

 

[flanker]

Music wasn't very strong unfortunately, did not allow much distinctive choreo IMO. Nevertheless he delivered great step sequence.

 

[elektra blue]

Kevin was caught red handed, and right after the cardinal nonetheless

Jacob should stay junior for another year or two. He just does not have the moxi to skate at this level. There are several jrs who can best him. His PCS are getting better and better. I mean 8s? That is better than most US sr men at this point. But he is just too nervy and always has been. And I say this as a fan. I think his team is doing him a disservice by pushing him too soon!

 

[flanker]

And now the most unpredictable skater of all time.

 

[jgg220]

Kessler beating Grassl by 2.5 points in PCS gives me hope there are still sane judges in this sport.

 

[Seven Sisters]

The many moods of Kevin Aymoz. I think this is the only program of his that makes me laugh (in a good way.)

He’s a unique animal, that’s for sure

 

[elektra blue]

this choreo inspired by Maurice Bejart's Bolero suits Kevin. he messed but didn't melt down. no man went clean cacti call it saturday night fun

 

[flanker]

Yep, he can rotate perfect elements with disastrous execution several times within just one skate.

 

[ramurphy2005]

Jacob should stay junior for another year or two.

He ages out of juniors after this season.

 

[elektra blue]

i think i need to sleep and remember how to breath. both my sons medaled, i bombed bad as the proud cactus lover i am. see you around. love you all

Well, I could not watch the stream and the one YouTube channel has been taken down.

Reading protocols, my very favorite thing to do (not), Jacob my son I want you to sell that Rohene program. I do not want you to fall twice and pop twice. Please

Kévin, mon brave, félicitations! Looks like the combo did not go so well, but I still hope to see the rest of your program. Sadly, Twitter may need to be my resource. But you are worth it.
