2025 Cup of China Men's Short Program

[EdgeCall]

he looked a bit like a fish out of water with this program, but maybe now he's more into it

He seems to be improving, expression wise. Some great moments there.

I'm worried that this group could be a disaster, Shun and Sota are both injured, Jacob is coming out of juniors in his first GP, Jun has serious boot issues that took him out of the CS and has had disaster practices, and Deniss is currently coachless.

 

[Kris135]

Now let's what Jacob can do. He has gotten higher than Tomoki in one of this events for the short. If he has the quad now would be the time to do it

Mikhail - I like him so much, but his costuming tastes are.... endearing, shall we say?

In other words what is he wearing?

an exotic vest and a shirt that make his arms look tattooed

fake tatoo shirt...aaaaaaah so early 2000s

I remember those words from Top Gear, Every time, just before EVERYTHING went wrong.

 

[labgoat]

What went down with Deniss and the Lambiel group? Anyone know?
My guess is some kind of funding issue

 

[Karoltyna]

Ok, I'll manage to watch Jacob before I'll need to finally start work

 

[labgoat]

Go Jacob! Pace yourself and do not rush!

Jacob has been studying Yuzu's wardrobe, y'all. Look at that shirt and deny it if you can.

I love Jacob's skating, he has so much quality and speed. He has a couple of quads in the works, but I appreciate that he tries to go easier but cleaner. For a fresh-out-of-juniors skater, he has so much poise and musical understanding. His jumps are so big and airy as well. It's such a shame about the combo, I think that was just nerves. His triples are usually so solid, I'm guessing he just tightened up a little bit and was a bit off on both the Lutz and flip.

GET YOUR SPIN LEVELS BOYS you all are killing me

Yuzu's shirt looked like a jellyfish, Jacob's like a chewed bubblegum, i miss the days when he was a fashionista (and a nominee)

he should aslo study Yuzu's taste in music or develop his own...

Jacob. Nice shirt and program. Good 3A. Shame about the fall on 3T, but still a good skate.

 

[pesto]

Grassl looks like he's maturing a bit. A bit less like a gawky teenager - I know he hasn't been a teen for years, but he always gives that impression.

 

[Kris135]

What a shame. He needed to be perfect to keep up and it did not happen.
