Wow, Lysacek actually beating Johhny in the flashy costume department.

Reynolds looks like he just returned from some magical forest.

Never thought I'd see the day where I could have the opportunity to :rofl: more at Lysacek's costume than Johnny's. But that day has arrived indeed.

And :laugh: at your comment on Reynolds. It's too true! And other than that, I think he looks a bit out of place in this group. But that's just me.

Oh, I hope Shawn's LP gets televised on NBC tomorrow. Maybe if he can stay in the top 5. *hopes*

Very lackluster skate from Adrian. He was very tired by the end of it, I'm guessing his ankle might be bothering him a little bit as well as the lack of training because of it. It'll be better later in the season I think (hope!).

Schultheiss

Sorry I didn't take detailed PBP but I can tell he ran out of steam at about the 2:00 minute mark but yet somehow did most of his jumps, had awesome choreography and despite skating the second half of the program with no speed had the audience really behind him.

This should be great at Euros and Worlds!

Reynolds

Quad Salchow - Geobel style
Quad toe - hand down
3 axel - good
spin
circ footwork - some attempt at character
3 loop - good
upright spin - nice variations
3 axel step out 2 toe
3 flip 3 toe 2 toe with arm abov head - nice
3 lutz 3 toe - nice!
3 Salchow
sl footwork - better
combo spin - good!

That was a lot better than last time I saw him!

I just saw Shultheiss lost to Uspenski??? Shultheiss should have gotten better choreography and interpretation marks compared yo Uspenski. Boo.

Odd observation, but Kevin's voice sounds exactly like Jeff Buttle's lol.

And wow, his 4s was awesome (and his first 3A was pretty good too!). I wish he would work on his posture a bit - just that one improvement could affect his whole skating package so much!

Reynolds is much improved, that was a lot cleaner than he's been in the past.
BUT...I hate the costume. It needs to go, now. It's shallow yes, but I hate looking at it.
2- His face was so blank at times that he almost looked sleepy. He really needs to work on expression.

Nevertheless, he will finish in at least 4th.

The Warm up music for the 2nd group was 'Thriller' Who makes these decisions?

Quad Goebel style, now THAT is what I miss from the sport, good clean quads with streangth and precision.

Evan's costume is terrible it looks like he has black sequin wings that are just hanging from his costume.

Kozuka - Remeo & Juliet

Sorry, just wanted to watch

Attempted Quad but fell, landed everything else in the program,
Strong fast spins
Nice musical footwork
Very clean crisp choreography
Great skating skills

Excellent!!!

I love Oda, but I actually like Kozuka's programs much better than what I saw of Oda's so far.
