2025 Skate Canada Men's Free Skate

[YuBluByMe]

Are we ready for this?!?

 

[RatedPG]

Go Aleksa, Romsky, and Gogo

 

[jgg220]

Rakic and Egadze look like they they both bought outfits from a collection that finished last in Project Runway Uzbekistan circa 2006. I approve!

 

[labgoat]

Working on other things - almost missed the start. Here I am!

so CBC is Chris... is the daily motion also Chris ? I don't care so much what he has to say about men but I am not sure I can deal with him for dance

 

[moonvine]

Roman and Vladimir look so tall

I keep thinking how tall Gogolev is

 

[Heather T]

Anyway... this will be fun.. I expect LOTS of movement except for the last and first place skaters

Watching on CBC GEM, what’s happened to our Canadian commentators today? I’m going to miss Kevin Reynolds’s excellent analysis.

Nobody is talking now.

He’s been talking up Tomoki and I like Tomoki but Tomoki is halfway through the 2nd group. That’s not a BOW that is going to make USFS all excited.

Remember, almost everyone scored above 80 points in the short program! He may well move up a few notches in the free skate!

Chris is on the ISU feed, which is also on Peacock. I guess CBC using him instead of their own broadcasters today? I wonder why?

ngoongoogaaah Aleksa did well on the home ice

 

[4everchan]

halloween was a couple days ago... weird music, programme and an orange costume but he got the jumps done. very happy for him

 

[Weathergal]

Roman and Vladimir look so tall

They are!

I keep thinking how tall Gogolev is

And I think Memola is even taller?

 

[FlossieH]

That was a decent skate for Aleksa. Programme was a bit weird.

 

[Jontor]

Well done Aleksa. Loved the Loop+Loop combo. Makes me think of Nugumanova who always did them, but never rotated them...

 

[CellarDweller]

Stupid question....has the skating started? I thought it was starting at noon my time (in about 15 minutes) but I put on the TV and Aleksa Rakic just finished.

Peacock had two events. One saying the skating started, and one saying it was starting in 15 minutes.

 

[yuumagical]

Wow, Aleksa came out stronger than I thought he would! My only complaint is that his shirt would have been good to wear on Halloween, and Halloween was a couple of days ago.

 

[4everchan]

ohhh sound is now removed.. hoping they will put ted back

It seems to be nobody. Ted was there for the pre-show but is now mysteriously absent. Maybe they are having technical problems with Kevin, who is in New Zealand. Now we have Kiss n Cry sound.

Good job Aleksa!!
Lovely 3Lo 3Lo
There is nothing special about Aleksa
But, he is our #3 and displayed what he could today. I have a feeling this free skate may beat one or two other free skates today
216.90… a bit low
