Skate Canada 2012 Mens - Long Program (4:10PM PST/7:10PM EST)

Despite his first two mistakes, I was going to write "Chan has won" and then he made another two. Now I have to wait and see who shall win in the end.

I really really like this Chan program. He's got the best feet in the business right now...too bad about the fall and the other bobbles. Fernandez can beat him on TES but likely not on PCS.

ETA: Is it my imagination or does Chan look thinner...not in a good way, as if he's lost some muscle?

Wonderful skating skills, but if this program beats Oda's...I'm going to scream. His spins were not as good as Oda's either.

 

[Puchi]

I think Oda is gonna win...

 

[jan]

His triple axel is gone back to the way it was 2 years ago.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Yeah, mistakes here, but it's a very well put together program. I still prefer Aranjuez, but the way he gets to be light suits his personality. The footwork will get epic GOE.

160.91. Fair score, I thought.

Chan
Score: 160.91, total 243.43 and into 1st

Oda beat him on TES

 

[Puchi]

I was wrong...

I can hear you all the way over here!

 

[skatinginbc]

I heard people screaming...

 

[katymay]

I think Oda is gonna win...

Nope....Color me DISGUSTED

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

I'm definitely rooting for Fernandez to win. Mainly cause I predicted him. But also because it'll be hilarious.

True unfortunate! Going to need it

 

[jan]

Why would it be hilarious?

Is it me or has Javier's jumps gotten smaller. Not a fan of his lack of pointed toe.

 

[museksk8r]

If Javi loses this title, the skating world will never hear the end of it.

 

[lise]

I am rooting for Patrick to win. I must say I have been very impressed by all the skating this week-end

 

[seniorita]

Oda had a great 4-3 sp and a very good Lp and is not enough I guess.

 

[mikiandorocks]

Everytime I listen to this music I can't help to remember Berezhnaya and Sikharulidze
