Why did I think of Plushenko when I saw the close-up shot of Adam's costume...?

It's not doing you any favours, Adam! Change it!

This is still the funniest thing I've ever seen... but not even Plushy would have worn that for an actual scored event!

But I do recall Adam's previous costume was pretty horrifying, I'm glad he has black pants now.

I've just realised he's doing Da Vinci's sketch of man thing in his step sequence though, so that's really cool.

You mean to say it was actually previously worse than what I just saw?

Thank goodness I didn't see it!

We will post it for WTF awards for sure

yes it is

Aww I just noticed I wasn't live in my stream and skipped to live and I missed Shun

Although that might have benefited Shun, looks like he had a humdinger!

 

[cocteautwin]

Shuniiii . Middle finger to rinky. His consistency is so impressive this season.

 

[Jeanie19]

Shun. Great purple shirt. Wonderful program and a really good skate.

 

[museksk8r]

Can Sato continue his clean consistency here to dethrone Kagiyama from his National championship later this month? Right as I typed that question, he stutters on the landing of the 3Axel. Still, Yuma has had much messier skates than that in the SP already this season.

 

[YuBluByMe]

I’m glad Sato landed the 4Lz. I was gonna turn this off and not watch another second if he fell. He held on to the 3A by the skin of his teeth but should still be above Grassl.

 

[labgoat]

Yay he is now pain free. Great news!

 

[Arigato]

What will his coach do?

 

[lileychristie]

Shun really has stepped up this season ey

I hope his injury is healed / manageable, hope his body holds up for the 2nd half of the season too

 

[Arriba627]

Good job Shun. Good fight on that 3A. Looks like his coach may be getting ready to scream!!!!

 

[anonymoose_au]

That axel landing should get extra points TBH, that was smooth. (I always enjoy a good choreo cover-up).

Haha I love Shun's coach, he gets so excited!

 

[cocteautwin]

Mr Kusaka excited as always

 

[elektra blue]

What will his coach do?

he's clapping so far

 

[lileychristie]

Oooh Yuma got a new shirt too

 

[YuBluByMe]

Heh, I want Sato to break 100 too. I’m imagining his coach’s reaction to that.

 

[elektra blue]

keep it together Yuma
