Very happy for Grant... Excellent skate! His final performance of competitive skating I believe. What a way to end, with a season's best!

Awww poor Geon Hyeong waving a little plaintively from the KnC as his hand gets wrapped!

Looks like they're going ahead with Group 2! Hey Kevin.

And man Malaysia has the bossiest warm-up jacket look at those tiger stripes!

And Andrew yeeeeah!

Oh boy,hope the Korean kid is ok.

Tiger is the mascot/symbol for Team Msia since years ago. So the tiger stripes jacket been around a while, from 2008 summer Olympics onwards

I love this YouTube stream (despite the text in the corner) because I was interrupted during Grant's skate and was able to go back to the beginning again! Yay technology!

 

[Crossover]

I'm pretty sure he is.

Then, I will cherish his last beautiful skate in competition. Wish him all the best for his second chapter of life.

Grand Prix Final lol

I am going too! [emoji4]

 

[NanaPat]

Yup. Bought the tickets a little too soon it seems

I would take the baby and a sitter/husband/nanny/etc, stay nearby (where Mrs P is staying) and walk to the arena by myself. The arena lobby was really crowded. At one point when people were coming in for the afternoon free skate session I got literally stuck in pedestrian traffic and could not move at all. I turned around and went back the way I'd come, going 3/4 of the way around the arena to get back to my seat. I would not want to take a tiny baby in that.

If you do take a sitter/husband/granny/etc, you could maybe take the baby to some of the less crowded sessions and leave it at home for the more crowded ones.

 

[auser]

As was I.

Glad for all of you . But must you flaunt it ( I need a green-eyed envy/jealousy monster emoji )

 

[karne]

It's extremely difficult to skate 2 different disciplines and especially at the same competition. I've done it, and eventually just picked one because it came too exhausting as I progressed up the ranks.

I thought this was ambitious, but I guess he must have thought he could do it after Nationals...the difference was that Nationals was scheduled precisely to protect him and Charlton (ice dance on Tuesday/Wednesday, Senior Men on Thursday/Friday) and he actually got stronger through the week at Nationals. So I guess he was hoping that the same might happen again and it just...didn't quite happen, which is a shame, because his FS at Nationals was stunning (he won the PCS on that event) and I wish you guys could have seen that one and not this one.
