2026 Olympics: Men's Free Skate

[Karoltyna]

we'll need to talk about embracing clean, not ice but he survived

 

[brens78]

Not his best skate but he’ll use this experience to help for the next time if he goes to the Olympics again.

 

[Ziotic]

I feel like he needs a coach to calm him down a bit.

 

[elektra blue]

Is it just me, or is everybody else now suddenly getting the forum home page's side column down the side of the page?

CaroLiza_fan

it's everybody, i have it too now

Is Kao still skating on that broken boot?

If so—just wait until he gets that resolved, he will be back again good as new

 

[freedomlover]

the zdf lady is sooo annoying to say kao was in the gpf for the third time. please get the facts right

 

[CoyoteChris]

Alright Kao, let’s do this!

Duct tape commercial?

 

[cocteautwin]

Yess Kao I'm so proud of him! It was really solid. Made his coach cry.
Also, I love his coach

 

[frompolandwithlove]

Alright, Kao is happy and it's all that matters.

A redemption skate from Kao Miura (just one significant error) and a lot of difficult jumps landed, the artistry was compelling too for me today

 

[Karoltyna]

Vova, it's basically your home ice, you can do it

 

[yuumagical]

That's enough of a redemption skate for me!

 

[elektra blue]

no my stream died again

Graet skate for Donovan.

By the way, on the subject of pops Tara is dead wrong (and Johnny Weir is right to say that sometimes your body just refuses to do it.)

I’m sure if we had witnessed Tara skate competitively past the age of 15, we would have seen her commit several pops as a skater with a more developed, mature body. Her perspective is very limited and this is a big reason why she’s not a very good commentator.

 

[TT_Fin]

Kao looks he is in pain or is he just disappointed?

 

[Sabsi]

@Karoltyna

 

[frompolandwithlove]

Ok, I take it back, he is not happy

 

[TontoK]

Man, imagine coming to the Olympics and your boots fall apart.

Good for him for overcoming.

Kao MIURA (JPN) doing his bit for the Normandy Tourist Board:

Thank goodness that was a lot better than Tuesday. It wasn't perfect, but he got through it.

Oh, no. He's crying.

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