Good luck with warding of the rink demons, Kevin!

Kevin's here to get the party started.

Also the accent of the English speaking announcer amuses me for some reason...

 

[OS]

Interesting, Kevin picked Karl Jenkins... a composer I have always thought should be used more in figure skating but for some reason doesn't vs the Phantoms, Moulin Rouges and Swan lakes.

Good luck with warding of the rink demons, Kevin!

Oh no... I jinxed him I guess.

popped the 4Lo but made the next two 4S's.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Ooo that first jump winces.

And I've only just realised that the Scottish speaking guy isn't John Kerr...shame.

I like Kevin's costume though and he managed the combo!

 

[jillredhand]

Oh no... I jinxed him I guess.

At 4:55 AM, with sleeping babies in the house, I all but shouted What the Hell, Kevin.

 

[karne]

I have my finger ready on the UR button. Sorry, Kevin.

 

[xeyra]

Whoa Kevin.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Wow Kevin is throwin' down!

And I still like his hair

Happy for Kevin. He's unique. Extra points for the triple loop combos.

Kevin Reynolds

Weird pop on 1Lo, not a lot of speed going into it. Good comeback with solid 4T, followed by 3S+3T. Clean 3A. Good 3F+3T+3Lo (not sure if fully rotated) right into 2A. 3Lz+3Lo to follow. And another 2A. Strange to see Kevin not have a lot of speed in this program. Interestingly, he only had 1 quad in this free skate and counted on his triple-triples instead, perhaps because of the falls and under-rotations on his quads.

But he still managed a 90+ in the technical mark (so long as he gets his levels). Great performance to start the men's event!

 

[da96103]

TES 93.70 on screen.

 

[Lota]

Wow, major props to Kevin! Not gonna lie, I was expecting a splat-fest.

 

[Shayuki]

Great skate but an even better hairdo.

 

[auser]

OK Kevin...let's see a bit of redemption here!

Nice job Kevin

 

[karne]

I had probable URs on the 4T, the 4S, the 3A, and definitely the tail-end 3Los.
