Platanova is also Kuchvalska's coach, isn't she?

yes

 

[Kittosuni]

Trying my best not to like Ignatov because I just know he is going to be a heart breaker

 

[lavenderblossom]

Good to see young talent coming through in Latvia. Kims needs to work on his spins and expression though.

And still no one has beaten Panenkova

 

[Tolstoj]

Have never seen Ignatov before, but apparently he placed well at Jr Nats? I am excited.

He's one my favorites since nationals (just behind Aliev among the russians), his FS is even better.

But why his score is so low? Mistakes somewhere? I haven't seen his short here but usually he's a 70+ skater.

Had some jump and spin issues

missed his 3T in combo, only 2t and invalid spin, but he is great, loved him!

 

[lavenderblossom]

Mistakes on all jumps, popped one I think, lost a spin.

I think only Matyas and Ivan may have a chance to do so, from the last group.

Kai Xiang and Matyas! Make me smile guys! ...cause I'm really depressed right now. :sad14:

 

[lavenderblossom]

Knee high boot covers

 

[matmuh]

Tomas is by the boards :hap85: Matyas looking a lot taller, hopefully he will skate clean :luv17:

 

[lavenderblossom]

Wrong music, oh no! But he skates very nicely, he didn't let it get to him.

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Nice job, Kai Xiang!


Edit: Great job, Matyas!

 

[Chemistry66]

Wow, Kai Xiang upped his ISU PB by nearly 12 points!

GO MATYAS GO

 

[xeyra]

Matyas with such a fun music choice!

 

[apgold]

Rough splat on the 3A from Ivan but nice triple triple and lutz.

He's going to be 19 soon, when will he go senior?

ETA:into 1st, a bit of a surprise. He'd be 70+ if he landed the 3A.

Overall, another underwhelming men's event, IMO.

 

[lavenderblossom]

Good job Ivan

Dasha's reign is over... for now

 

[xeyra]

And Ivan beats Daria's score. I was almost giving it up for lost.

(I prefered Daria)

He's already competed at Challenger Series events and at Euros and Senior Worlds. Probably doing JGP for rankings points since he hasn't gotten a GP.
