Daniel Samohin

They took place a month ago. Bychenko apparently won. I haven't found mention in Israeli media of Samohin's placement, but I assume he competed as he was pictured in photos of the event.

Daniel continues his string of bad luck...he cut his hand in practice and had to get stitches already! Gruesome video on his IG

My biggest wish right now is that he makes the top 24 after the SP. I just want him to have 2 decent skates.

A bit late, but there was so much going on & I was dealing with bad internet at the time, so I didn't have a chance to properly watch Daniel's FS until now. I am soooo pleased and happy that he finally delivered and on the biggest stage of all! What a great redemption after all he's been through! I honestly was afraid he was going to be one of the men who didn't make the FS, after Euros. But somehow he turned it all around in that short time. Did Morozov work some of his voodoo magic? 
I'm totally fine if he did. Thank goodness his team finally brought in some outside help!

I'm so happy as well. I was simply hoping for him to make the top 24 since we know about his past 2 Euros. And Skate America. But I'm so happy for him! Hopefully he'll have a huge confidence booster from this.
I wonder if his team is aware of changes in programs. His SP is almost 20 seconds too long

Yes. How could they do that?????
Well, he and his team made a mistake, but unfortunately organizers of the competition as well. Usually they announce the duration of the program at the end of the run-through in practice, however, in Daniel’s case they announced 2.50. It’s no excuse, they should have noticed it as well, but it was just bad luck that with this mistake they missed a chance to notice it in time.

In case anyone was interested, here's my 1080p fancam of his SCI LP Thursday afternoon practice (sorry for the wait, but my Dailymotion account has a strict upload limit, and my original files are roughly 1 GB each)---I sat in the second row from the boards: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6wfv0q

Interesting. I'm happy to see him competing again in whatever capacity. He did previously skate for the U.S. up until the 2012-2013 season and then switched to representing Israel in 2013-2014 season.
