2026 European Championships Men's Free Skate

[Skating91]

Only level 2 step sequence for Denis and it felt like a lot of the program was setting up jump after jump using the length of the rink

Kyrylo in top10. Does Ivan still skate or does Ukraine have somebody else?

He skated last at Golden Spin in December

 

[Jontor]

Looks like the ice is extra slippery today. Lots of blades that slips and wobbles, lots of jumps popped into doubles.

Ivan Shmuratko has been competing this season. Kyrylo Marsak has just overtaken him and is getting the higher profile events.

Feels so right seeing Deniss back with Stéphane
Nice jobs despite those pops.

Deniss VASILJEVS (LAT) wearing a shirt the same colour as the Latvian flag, and black trousers.

You can't beat a bit of Khachaturian!

I know the "Sabre Dance" is an iconic piece of music, but I'm surprised that it was included. Because it is so fast that it must be so hard to skate to. I'm glad he didn't even attempt to keep up with it.

He was brilliant!!!

He goes into 3rd position in the FS, and 2nd position overall.

OOoh Kyrylo still in the lead! What a moment for him

 

[Ares]

Beautiful from Deniss but two popped up jumps and again losing levels on steps. It looked like he had to focus far more to execute the jumps than at his peak

so Deniss is back with Stéphane.... I am so out of the loop (so was Deniss I guess)

 

[Skating91]

Good comeback for Denis he's more calm now that the relationship is friendly with Lambiel again.

Lambiel liked the performance gave a squeeze of his thigh.

not sure I'd trust anyone wearing a sparkling belt when it comes to saving the world.

This is Deniss's 10th Europeans with a top 10 finish.

I am so old

 

[Ichatdelune]

Skate of his life period

 

[4everchan]

ok I will say it only one last time... I have no idea who is commentating but she annoys me like hell..

Okay. I am done.

 

[elektra blue]

best free from him so far in his career?

 

[FlossieH]

Reshtenko can be very inconsistent, but that was him at his best.

Georgii is on a mission to save the world

Looks like he did.
