I think it's called "Scent of Love"?

The names of the pieces according to ISU listing are "Big My Secret" and "Scent of Love" from "The Piano".

Kolyada: Cute little baby face ( a propos of nothing). But's what with jerky movements? Is he supposed to be a puppet or a robot? (Seriously, I don't know the music, I don't know what he is representing).

Much better than his sommer comps, best 4T-attempt internationally so far.
Still questionable on the big jumps, though

FS: 79.69+82.70 = 162.39, 239.37, 1/13

 

[invisiblespiral]

I think I'll watch Jason's FS after doing some homework.

 

[OS]

ahah... oi people fainted already?! Quad attempt!!

Better improvement than the last outing at least... if he can feel the music a bit better, and hold on to some of these choreograph positions a bit longer and controlled, it can better. Jump issues aside.

Thoughts on Costume???

 

[karne]

Jason BROWN (USA)

Scent of Love. NEW COSTUME ALERT. HOLY BALLS I LIKE BOTH COSTUMES, STOP THE PRESSES. Black (or really dark blue?) flowy shirt with asymmetrical neckline, silver sparkles, long sleeves to come down just over his hands. Very nice.

4T< 2 foot
3A<-1T
CCSp

3A step out both hands, could be a fall

3Lz!
3F-3T
2A

and I really couldn't care about the jumps right now. Oh, I love this program for him. I can see myself standing in Boston for this.

 

[charmblade]

This announcer is SO EXCITED about Jason.

 

[Princessroja]

Wow, I don't even care about the mistakes early on. I *love* this program. Like, SO much.

 

[cheerknithanson]

Wow, I don't even care about the mistakes early on. I *love* this program. Like, SO much.

This makes me even more excited to go to Milwaukee!

 

[el henry]

Costume gods, the purple sash thingy is gone.

So gorgeous, and Jason interprets every note of the music so beautifully. (It ain't easy to get me to like tinkly piano music) If only he can get the moves *down*.

ETA: moves meaning jumps. The spins and transitions and interpretation are pure Jason

 

[Osmond4gold]

JaZzzzzon. A bit of a snoozzzze fest wasn't it?
