2013 4CC's Mens FS

[Ziggy]

Aaron's PCS make me want to throw my laptop out of the window.

Weak basics and he wasn't even pretending to skate to the music.

7.50PE... PE IS MEANT TO REWARD PERFORMANCE ABILITY, POSTURE AND LINES AND MOVEMENT APPROPRIATE TO THE CHARACTER OF THE MUSIC AND NOT HOW MANY JUMPS YOU'VE LANDED JESUS CHRIST.

 

[Orange Cat]

Ok, I get that Aaron has the jumps and Ross really made some major jumping errors... But how did Aaron score higher SS than Ross?? this seems wrong :/

The very fact that Aaron's PCS were so high is, to me... :sarcasm:

Aaron's PCS should have been in the 4s.

 

[Orange Cat]

Aaron's PCS should have been in the 4s.

Maybe a bit harsh. But he definitely did not deserve most of those 7s. His choreography got 7+? Give me a break.

Yuzu again misses the 4S, time to replace it IMO with another 4T
no 3-3 combo and singles a jump. This leaves the door open for Dai IMO
the 3Axels were OK but not at his usual standard

 

[Li'Kitsu]

Yuzu again misses the 4S, time to replace it IMO with another 4T

Pretty sure he won't do that

Solid, but the door is certainly open w/ 3 pops.

 

[jan]

Just watched HANYU and to be honest I do not know why he is even discussed as being comparable to Takahashi or Chan as far as PCS. He is not in their league.

 

[Mirunna]

158 is way lower than I expected but I think that is fair. But then I believe Max Aaron was overscored compared to Hanyu

 

[sequinsgalore]

Hanyu

FS: 76.95 + 81.78 = 158.73
total 246.38, in 1st (out of 19)

Hard fall on quad, but otherwise solid - good comeback. But he can be proud of his senior debut. Should work on presentation and spins.

[FSGMT]

Han Yan: :yay: I really hoped that he was going to win something, after his bad first half of the season! And, yes, Aaron's PCS should have been between 5 and 6 in all the marks, even PE, he was just skating to "a" music that was just a background for his jumps... :disapp:

 

[Mirunna]

Oh my, Kevin landed everything, 3 quads! Hope everything is rotated. He might shake things up here a bit

 

[starryxskies]

KEVIN KILLED THAT!!! I'm convinced he should've been Canadian Champ

What a jumping machine! Will look for replay for UR's, but very good for him.

 

[Mao88]

That was absolutely phenomenal from Kevin Reynolds! Loved the 3 quads as well
