2014 Skate Canada Practice Reports

LMAO I was like, I didn't know Gachinski was competing at SC?!? And then I realized it was Menshov. They really do look similar especially from behind.

Menshov's music is so Menshov

LOL and he didn't show much on tech for me to know where to put him in the predictions

Strong LP practice by Max

I almost had a heart attack. Menshov and Gachinski have any relation or something. Ha ha

 

[snowflake]

If you think he looks like Gachi, look up Sergei Borodulin on Youtube

I hope Menshov does better than Gachi did.

You can look at other things than the hair you know

Go Menshov!

I like Carriere a lot too, go guy!

Is it just me or did the channel suddenly go offline?

 

[MalAssada]

My stream is offline, is everyone's working?

 

[snowflake]

Not just you... me too.. on and off

 

[Sabrina]

yes my stream went offline too...

 

[Sabrina]

Now it works again

 

[TMC]

aaaand it's back now but with no sound...

 

[Meoima]

That music should be banned. Who's "good girl"?

 

[MalAssada]

Mine's back, with sound :yay:

 

[TMC]

Mine too, woohoo!

Oh my Adam those tights :

 

[Meoima]

That blurred lines song should be banned. Robin Thicke is a big ****** I can't stand that music.

I hope so too! In fact..I wish for all Russian men to do better than what Gachinski did. (Maybe even Kovtun too)

LOL and he didn't show much on tech for me to know where to put him in the predictions

Haha I know. But barring disastrous falls or collisions I decided not to let my opinion be shaped by the practices, I would get too much of a headache otherwise.

I just came back to see the big boys are out to practice! Go Kozuka, go Fernandez, go Mura! Even Firus, go, my Patrick Chan semi-clone! :yay:

 

[pandaatlarge]

I hate Skate Canada for live broadcasting it! Don't really want to go to sleep (3:33 am here) while there is work tomorrow...

 

[Meoima]

Mura is looking okay, Kozuka not so much. I wonder about his blade problem.

 

[unico]

Kozuka's jumps looked a bit off, I think he popped his quad? and a really scratchy combo, but skating skills to swoon over. His skating is so light and airy, he floats and dances around like it's absolutely nothing.

Oh hey, Mura isn't using the 2004 movie OST for his POTO. Big clean quad at the beginning, he looked pretty solid throughout.

Fernandez takes center stage! Glorious quad to start. Compared to last year's LP, this one is miles better even though the vocals seem to over power him. Still fumbly through the step sequence, but it wouldn't be Fernandez if he wasn't.

After he slipped on his other quad, he seemed really frustrated, and then he ran into someone's jacket and it caught on his skates? I hope he gets his head together.

 

[snowflake]

Fernandez a quad yes and a 3-axel... almost colliding with the boards and later someones track suit - strange practice, right?

 

[pandaatlarge]

I can't help but at Mura's quads
