2025 Skate Canada Men's Free Skate

That is going to be a ridiculous lead for Ilia.

I think I finally figured it out: this reminds me of an Urmanov program with more jumpm content. Lots of arm waving--sometimes effective and sometimes not. I really like the step sequence in the middle. It's the first time that Ilia has really taken his time. Still amazes me how smoothly he completes his content, especially in the second half. He just cannot be denied when he jumps like this.

OMG!! Ilia!!!
In a class of his own!!
The best skater we have ever seen!

He lands quads easier than the field lands triples

if i wanted the world to listen to my motivational speach selections i'd have Benedict Cumberbatch reading them for me, just sayin

'You are something - but not nothing...'...? What? I think that 'but' should be 'and' in order to send the message he's looking to send...?

Trust me, me and the fellow Ilia Malinin fans sometimes wonder what goes on in his noggin too. LOL.

What are the criteria for selecting the Japanese team? Body of work or Nationals?

 

[Jontor]

Malinin must be an alien as he is out of this world.

 

[discodisco]

you are something but not, nothing.

What does that mean, even...

However, you can't deny the absolute prowess when it comes to technical content. You almost don't even need to have skating skills beyond four or five to win when your program is this packed technically.

You are not out of this world, you are in this world, or something, or nothing.
