[samson]

Yeah mine UK stream keeps going out of sync.

I went back to the Russian feed.

[samson]

Yeah I think they wait to show the TES box once they have a "leader" to compare it to.

 

[EdgeCall]

Is the UK Eurosport stream several seconds out of sync for anyone else or is it just my computer...

Same here. Restart didn't help.

 

[wordsworthgirl]

Very strong on jumps, but nothing else too special EXCEPT his good looks! He looks a bit like a young Boris Becker!

 

[auser]

Try restarting it. I was experience delay but then I exed out and started it up again.

yes I have been having this delay or earlier freeze problem... restarting works.

this works for me good in sync, but it is a little late

 

[samson]

His feet are really interesting in the air. He doesn't point his toes AT ALL, but I guess it might allow him to make sure he rotates the jumps? Could someone with actual training speak to that?

 

[samson]

Alright Max here we go.

 

[gimble]

Aaron seems to be struggling with his jumps today... too bad.

 

[Becki]

Very strong on jumps, but nothing else too special EXCEPT his good looks! He looks a bit like a young Boris Becker!

I think the exits to his jumps aren't that good, kinda sloppy. I agree, his jumps are good but his skating skills are relatively weak compared to the top men.

Quite som messy landing here and there. No falls, and it should be enough to keep him ahead

Score: 78.20+68.94 = 147.14, 223.35, 1st out of 2

I zoned out during Aaron and kind of came to during the bouncy part of the "Carmen" music. I much preferred Menshov.

 

[Mrs. P]

Oy. What happened?!

 

[samson]

Oof. I wonder if he is not feeling well. He looked so tired on the ice. The quad toe looked around though.

 

[caitie]

Not a strong outing from Max.

 

[Ziggy]

Messy from Aaron but his jump content is extremely impressive. Basic skating still weak and scratchy but use of upper body and choreography much improved since last season.

 

[wordsworthgirl]

Max is such a cutie-pie. Love his grit and sweet smile. Sad for him.

 

[auser]

funny, Eurosport UK analysts are debating how distracting the TES score graphic box is ... better in this position? etc.

 

[wordsworthgirl]

Messy from Aaron but his jump content is extremely impressive. Basic skating still weak and scratchy but use of upper body and choreography much improved since last season.

Agreed on all counts!
