2017 GP Skate Canada Mens SP

Patrick moves over the ice better than anyone but his programs are starting to be a little generic. I preferred Jason's.

 

[whatif]

Yeah right, like Evegenia can do any of *that*.

Well, perhaps not 3A, though the way Brown does it, she may as well can do it. But everything else, pretty much.

Beautifully done Patrick. The audience got a little too enthusiastic there and clapped before he completed his jumps, it was a bit distracting for me to enjoy it. But otherwise so happy for him to deliver at home!!!

 

[gravy]

This program reminds me of those skating montages on YouTube that fans make where they superimpose a random song over a random collection of a skater's programs. Just looks like he skates through it to be honest.

Patrick's skating is just so gorgeous.

 

[andromache]

I'm soooo excited for Shoma tbh. Not my favorite skater, but his take on Winter is brilliantly musical.

 

[4everchan]

good start for Patrick

the 4toe covered so much ice

i loved the details of his skating... such a great musical interpretation... moves so fluidly on the ice....

 

[ancientpeas]

Go Shoma!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Patrick shouldn't beat Jason in PCS. That program lacks interpretation and true choreography.

He's a lovely skater and it's a great song, but they never really met.

Oh god, my leprechaun is on. Hold me

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

Patrick always has such a beautiful smile on his face! And he's so charming. Poor guy! His luggage lol!

94.43 deservedly into 1st!

Not sure where they pulled Patrick's TES from, but it was a nice skate.

 

[whatif]

Nice from Chan, but so boring. Same programme every year.

 

[jillredhand]

Not big into musicals but I LOOOOOOVE Hamilton. Not sure that Room Where it Happens works great for skating (too context-dependent), but Jason and Rohene make it fun, and the footwork is amazing.

Thing is, I don't think there's any piece of music in Hamilton that isn't expositional and context dependent. But Room Where it Happens is a good shot at it. As long as Jason wants to skate to Hamilton, it's probably the best piece.

 

[Mrs. P]

Wow only a 4 point margin between Patrick and Jason.

 

[LittleLotte29]

Watching Patrick live was definitely the most wonderful skating thing I've ever experienced.

 

[GGFan]

It didn't feel connected to the lyrics but i think his skating and flow matched the instruments

Patrick shouldn't beat Jason in PCS. That program lacks interpretation and true choreography.

Well it is a close call, because Patrick is also an artistic skater. But judges are possibly cooking poutine.

 

[kresslia]

tbh I think that score for Patrick is perfectly reasonable, I actually thought they'd score him higher.

 

[nolangoh]

I heard Julia saying Ya Lyublyu about SHoma. Does she like SHoma??

 

[draqq]

Solid 3Lz, good 4T+3T with a touchdown, and a shaky 3A. Surprisingly, this is an Olympic short program I can stand behind. Dust in the Wind brings out his artistry better than Beatles did last year.
