[OS]

Wow pressure is on Javier now... no Zayak 2T pls

 

[msteach3]

Aww...those Japanese boys have a hard time holding in the tears.

That was beautiful from Mura. I liked the use of the different colored gloves as the mask. But seriously, what is with Team Japan and POTO this year? Did they all get together and decide that everyone loves it and they should all skate to it? :scratch:

Perhaps they all got together for a movie night, watched POTO, & fell in love? Okay, probably not..

Will Fernandez remember to count?

 

[Wo|flax]

omg is he crying aww

 

[HanDomi]

I feel so happy for Mura

 

[Dr. Jenn]

Awww... What a great reaction by Mura!

 

[gibbynka]

That was amazing to watch ... good luck to Javi, it's gonna be very interesting.

No one has Dai's mesmerizing charm and effortless presence

Ha ha, that's true. And, I'm not expecting anyone else to be Dai who is the one-and-only one of a kind Rock Star skater. Let's just say I don't see Mura taking on Dai's mantle. He needs to improve on presentation, and he certainly trying with this overused music.

Here's my super unpopular opinion for the day: I don't enjoy Jason Brown. I don't get him at all. I'm just left scratching my head at his enormous popularity.

Well, there's no accounting for different tastes, is there? Different strokes for different folks, and that's an understatement!

 

[Meoima]

Mura with huge TES!!!! I am soooo glad for him!!!!

 

[Violet Bliss]

The competition suddenly just got exciting.

 

[s_parks]

Hand down on first quad. He's gotta be careful.

 

[Eislauf]

Javi's rushing..making mistakes...not feeling the music

 

[Wo|flax]

shoot hard to follow that though
*sigh Javi sloppy as always
pull it together

 

[Meoima]

Oh no Javi!! Please hang on!!

I would like falls to have a higher penalty & the 1 point mandatory deduction can instead be used towards those overrated spinny-landings on jumps instead :yes:

 

[OS]

Mura got the gold.

 

[HanDomi]

oh no

 

[Art&Sport]

So, Orser is relying on this great opera music and lyrics to carry Javi re his lack of presentation skills. Still too many bells and whistles for my taste.
