Men Free Skating - 2013 Trophée Eric Bompard

I think Chan will win unless he decides to spend half the program sliding across the ice on his belly.

Yuzu is amazing but I do not like this music as much as his original R&J music. And he is not connecting as much with his programs this season. It does not help matters that all I can think about is Sasha Cohen and her exquisite rendition when I watch. This will not beat Chan.

that just made me almost choke hahahahahahahahahahahaha

I think Chan will win unless he decides to spend half the program sliding across the ice on his belly.

I think it's safe to say that, at this point, Chan could do that and STILL win.

Hanyu doing his best "Sasha Cohen" today, apparently.

The music or the hot and cold skating?

 

[Ziggy]

Hanyu Yuzuru - Good speed but messy upper body movement (regressing instead of improving). Good transitions, some of the jump entries were very difficult with steps directly preceding them.

 

[Mrs. P]

The numbers are crazy...he is 3 points from 90 TES without an entire jumping pass!

The music or the hot and cold skating?

Maybe the botching of the first two jumping passes while skating to Romeo & Juliet?

 

[zschultz1986]

The music or the hot and cold skating?

The answer to your question is yes. The skating combined with the music just gave me such flashbacks to Torino.

 

[Ziggy]

It will be funny if Chan falls 3 times and still wins. The crying will make the servers fall apart.

 

[sweetskates1]

Patrick just won.

 

[Mrs. P]

Chan is on....he is almost to 100 TES.

What's the world record?

Oh wait....TES ticker thingy says 100+! AHHHHH!!!

 

[Mirunna]

Holy crap! Almost 100 on TES! That is AMAZING
This will be a new WR

 

[jaylee]

Is Patrick going to break 100 in TES? It's currently at 99.76.

That was an insanely amazing performance! Wow, everyone is applauding him at the boards, too! Looks like John Coughlin, etc.

 

[Finnstep]

Chan was amazing!

 

[blue_idealist]

Chan was good.

 

[Mrs. P]

Now states 100.21!!!!

 

[sweetskates1]

wow

 

[jaylee]

Patrick's performances here are better than anything he's done at any competition in the past. That was phenomenal. Congratulations, Patrick!
