2026 Olympics: Men's Short Program

A very young Mikhail fan in the stands!

Nervous for Ilia, can he do the 4A? Will he do the 4A?

Shun time! We believe!

How many people have Olympic figure skating on their phone with football on the tv?

 

[CoyoteChris]

11 pm. Can I make it until to the end? I must be at office 8 am but have less than 10 minutes walk there.

Red bull

Sato now. He does look scared, but hopefully he doesn’t skate like that.

 

[Seven Sisters]

Go forth, Shun, and may you have a skate that brings you joy

 

[Arigato]

Made it back.

Edit: You're that shocked I went to the bathroom that fast? lol.

 

[moonvine]

Let’s go Ilya!

German commentator going all in for Ilia Malinin right now- just after he told us he is good friends with Ari. A bit funny.

He also said Figure Skating usually attracts older people and skaters like Ilia bring in new young watchers......
Hi fellow grandmas and grandpas I guess 🫩

 

[Paulipau]

Did Malinin lose fitness or is it the shape of the costume?

Shape of costume

 

[bartlebooth]

Ouch he put his foot down.

 

[freedomlover]

SHUN!!!!! not perfect but considering his blade issues I will take this.

 

[el henry]

Sneaking in from last group to say so happy for Kévin!

It's that darned Euros. Stay away from Euros

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Ooooh, those twizzles were soooo close to the board

 

[EdgeCall]

How many people have Olympic figure skating on their phone with football on the tv?

How uncivilized!

 

[labgoat]

Go Shun!

 

[museksk8r]

4Lutz will be reviewed, but looked clean. Oh no, he lands 4toe on the back of his heel and can only get off a +2toe for combo with a step out. -GOE. 3Axel. Not the same level of performance we saw in the men’s TE FS, but he managed to mostly hold it together. Sato looked much better earlier in the season and perhaps he’s feeling some burnout now in the latter part of the season.

I was just trying to be edgy...

That's what the men said

Bit nervy on the jumps for Shun, but the rest looks great!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

A little bit nervy from Shun, but he has hopefully done enough to keep himself in medal contention. Hopefully being just outside of that 3rd spot will help him have a revenge free! He's keeping the Shoma +2T tradition alive.

 

[FlossieH]

Shun Sato is such a beautiful skater but I think that combo landing will take him out of medal contention.

 

[bartlebooth]

Again those spin levels
