I think Kevin has improved greatly this year. In fact, he is perhaps underrated and cannot completely escape his past reputation.
He should be getting something like 4.75 for SS max.

Max falls on his 3A. And I believe Richard is not going to worlds, is he? Imagine the frustration if he ends the competition in front of Ross and Max

Let us wait FS and final results. All may change.If Richard is the top American here, he might get added as the 1st alternate for Worlds.
Am I the only one who thinks it's a bit creepy how underweight Hanyu looks? :disapp: I just can't get over it. There's no way that is normal. There is no way! I really hope it's just me... :scowl:
In all his intentional events this year his ss have ranged from 6.82 to 6.89, so the ss score here, 7.54, is not a huge leap.

And Rogozine just earned a spot to Worlds. No way do they go for Balde now.

Moonlight should have been saved for another year. It's too late in the year to be changing to another SP Even Dai's spins were lacking. In the last one, he travelled badly. He was gifted to be as high up as he is.
Agree about Hanyu and Han issue. But where is the case "like Hanyu" with Dai? Among those who are below Dai only Song got higher TES- less than 3 points. And no matter how much I like TES and quad combo, I don't think that the difference between Dai's PCS and Song's should be enough to give the last guy an upper place. So, I don't see where Dai took someone else's 4th postion thanks to his PCS.His higher PCS saved him from losing to Han.
..............
Like Hanyu, his higher PCS also saved him to stay at 4th.
I don't think Dornbush will hold it together in the FS. There's a huge gap between him and Aaron but if Aaron lands his jumps, he can still come on top.
Richard could easily bomb at World. I think this SP is more of a fluke than what he can do "normally"
I still put my money on the other two.
Let us wait FS and final results. All may change.
Remember, at Nationals Aaron had FS score more than 24 points higher than Dornbush.

OMG! US Guys !! 9th & 10th place! USFSA must be peeing their pants as we speak.
