2025 GP Finlandia Trophy Men's Free Skate

in Milano.

I hope you're right

I am somehow rooting hard for Gogo, even though his skating is not my favorite style, but I want him to succeed so bad after all his struggles

Gorgeous crown for Yuma. Thank you @NoNameFace

 

[Dawn825]

I like this shirt.

 

[Demandred]

The first half was so perfect jumpingwise, sham that the mistiming on jump 5 threw Yuma off and he almost hit the boards. Still, the choreo and step sequence at the end were to die for.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Was Yuma trying to take out the camera, and in the process scare the lives out of us?

In all seriousness, what a skate!

It would have been perfect were it not for that mishap that we saw too close up.

Hate this version of the music, though. Would have been better as an instrumental.

Yuma looks disappointed.

Go on Yuma, put the crown on Caro. Just for me. I want to see her wearing one of @NoNameFace's beautiful flower crowns. Even if it is just for a moment.

Alas, he didn't.

He goes into the lead of both the FS and overall.

That awkward spin at a crescendo - who choreographed this for Gogolev? Ugh.

Sasha Cohen was the best with this music. I miss her.

 

[Ziotic]

Looks like Stephen is getting the medal.

 

[norwegianfairytale]

I think Gogo has done enough to medal, he has a bit of a lead from the SP. Well done

 

[elektra blue]

i think Stephen medaled

 

[readernick]

My guess is that we see a number of calls but it will probably be enough to keep him on the podium due to the SP lead. Good for the Canadian men for stepping it up this year.

 

[Mathematician]

Mozalev moment.

 

[YuBluByMe]

I like how Gogolev is the only other skater doing +3A sequences other than Ilia. I think he wins a medal and stays ahead of Sadovsky. The plot thickens!

mmm... some carrots for Gogo too... I cannot believe he popped the axel... but god for him for not giving up on the combo there.

Axel is usually easier for him as we can see by him doing at triple axel in the sequence though this one was short.

they will give him the same PCS as Roman which is not fair in my opinion, though he definitely should be the one on the podium

 

[Axel Rose]

Gogolev’s jumps were there but omg his program is boring. The step sequence was flat. He resisted the pressure though.

 

[lileychristie]

Which Canadian will the judges put higher? Gogo higher TES but lower PCS, tighty tight.....

 

[Weathergal]

Mozalev moment.

Sorry Mozalev actually has artistry. But sticking with skaters actually in this comp. So sad this beats Roman. Overall quality wise, Gogo just doesn't have it.

 

[Ares]

Good from Gogolev but that should not be enough to defend his advantage over Kagiyama. I wish he was more expressive on the ice, I didn't get enough of it. And it felt like the choreo/composition didn't do justice to Rach, I'd put the camel spin in a different place in the program, it felt anticlimactic to me.
