2015 IceChallenge Men SP and FS

[silverfoxes]

Lol, I've been watching, though I must admit that my big interest is Jason's quad

So tell us about Michal, Anton and Artur, well Dmitry I know about(son of the great pair skater A. D.)

Well, Anton just skated & did a beautiful job...he trains with Menshov, Leonova, etc. under Rukavitsyn. And Mikhail was the silver medalist at Ondrej Nepela...possibly the only one here who could give Jason a run for his money if he is totally clean.

 

[MFarone]

Anton had a nice skate...really fit the music. He ended a second or 2 after the music.

Ryan T. explaining they are hoping to get online results working again.

Anton 74.16 points...second place

I enjoyed Shulepov Good job! And it seems that I’ve seen those black flapping tails already on so many guys this season. A trend?

Is Jorik in first place?

I thought the music and video might be a little out of sync...I think I noticed that with some others too.

 

[MFarone]

Mario from Austria..43.77.

5th place

 

[apgold]

Great job Jason! Jumps looked high and clean.

 

[andromache]

Nice, CLEAN performance from Jason! Much improved from last week.

 

[apgold]

Kori is more rock and roll than Jason, Nick says. I agree, lol.

ETA: 85 points - new SB!

 

[StitchMonkey]

I am enjoying this guys comments. Nothing mean just playful!

 

[MFarone]

Jason...nice 3A, 3F/3T and 3Z.

85.29

1st

 

[silverfoxes]

There's another Ionian guy in this group...hope he's a little better. I assume they are brothers?

 

[skylark]

Beautiful skate, Jason ... you're on your way

 

[Mrs. P]

85.29!

As for Jason's PCS in the FS sans quad: "Doesn't count" is the wrong phase. Rather I feel the 89 at WTT was a huge outlier when he received marks 83-85 in the other parts of the ISU Championship season (i.e. 4CC/Worlds). I feel WTT for whatever reason has quite a bit of inflation relative to other events. So I take Jason's 89 as an outlier until the scoring trends at other events show otherwise.

AT this point he seems to be squarely in the 83-85 range.

 

[Tavi...]

Yay Jason - he looked pretty good! So glad he was clean. Now I've go to go back to work, unfortunately.

ETA thanks Mrs P! You're probably right about WTT but it really was a great performance. Anyway, glad he got 85+ today - much nicer than 76 or whatever he got at SA. He did look a bit slow today, so maybe he can better that score - will be interested to see protocols later.

 

[tulosai]

Glad Jason was able to go clean!

 

[skylark]

Looking forward to Artur, I've never seen him skate and I'm a huge fan of his father, the great pairs skater (esp. with Mishketenov

 

[silverfoxes]

29.98. Yikes.

Thanks... I hope Mikhail does well then, so there's a competition.

OK, so no quad try in short then for Jason Oh, well, he doesn't need it...

Simon from AUT..weird fall on nothing and slide into the boards. Does not appear injured. Big step out on 3A. Program kind of slow. He is the brother of Mario.


29.89

I think that was a jump attempt that got away from him. Like a loop but rather than his body start rotating, his skate when away from him.
