2013 Worlds-Mens SP

[bigsisjiejie]

Very fine performance by Denis Ten. One of my favorite programs so far (a little too much looking to the heavens and hand wringing, but I'll give him a pass...). Frank C can smile.

 

[Mrs. P]

Thank you Denis!!! for saving the night.. That was a fantastic SP.

I know you're gonna bomb the LP on friday and drop like 10 places so Ill just cheer double for you tonight

Awwww...don't say that. I'm hoping this is a bona fide comeback!

91+!!

 

[aftertherain]

Wowza! 91+! Great job!

 

[Mrs. P]

Woah these German commentators cannot get over it... That's a new PB for Denis, yes?

 

[icebeauty]

Dennis Ten is finally reminding me of his Worlds performance in 2009. Long time coming.

Woah, Denis brought it! Finally. He's struggled so much this season. Please let this be first!

YES YES YES! lovely skate from Denis. when he hits, he's such a joy to watch. clean lines/positions and GORGEOUS landing position...that posture is to die for...

 

[Krislite]

Wow! 91 points for Ten.

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Holy !@##$%$ 91+ for that! I'm speechless. Ten is approaching Chan territory.

 

[flaneur]

I'm happy Ten has finally skated a program well!

Woah these German commentators cannot get over it... That's a new PB for Denis, yes?

Yes. He hasn't broken 80 before.

wow wow wow Denis

and now Daisuke... no good quad

 

[Art&Sport]

Been waiting and waiting for that Denis, my man! The sport's still got ahold of me. Forget the ridiculous score, Denis has the goods artistically and with calming those nerves his tech which was always there, has been allowed to shine. Denis is the real thing: a complete figure skater. Kevin Reynolds, not so much. Keep it going for the lp Denis. Whatever Frank said or did (maybe it was you seeing KR winning 4CCs that got the fire going in you), stay on target. Love Denis' programs and if he can do the lp this well, I wouldn't be surprised to see him in the medals. LP though is another hill to climb.

CCoSp - nice spin, fast w/ unusual positions

Big mistake on quad, but today it'll maybe not cost too much in placement. Great performer as always.

41.50 + 43.17 = 84.67
In 3rd (out of 32)

 

[Mrs. P]

Besides the two-foot on the quad-- nice work! Love love that footwork sequence.

 

[MaiKatze]

Yes, yes Daisuke! I'm happy!

 

[Puchi]

Why did F. Carrol have that weird expression on his face?

ETA: Oh, he was smiling.

 

[jan]

There was no quad...<<

daisuke got through all his jumps. thank goodness. (yes, i know that quad wasn't too great.)

 

[katymay]

Absolutely wonderful, stunning! I am almost crying, that was special!!!!!!!!!!

I'm praying that my personal savior, Mao posts these programs...feed isn't working....

Takahashi needs to get the Beauty Bonus too if Fernandez got it
