Andrei Lazukin was underscored big time.
I thought he was one of the best here: yes the final spin was invalidated but what's up with those PCS? he sold the program, he has a good posture, there were transitions out of the elements, a nice knee slide in the steps sequence,... he deserves like 4-5 points more than that!
He's behind skaters who were honestly a mess like Jun, and less than a point ahead of Kolyada who was even worse.
He's a newbie to senior competition, at least at the GP level, and he wasn't exactly a star at the junior level. He's not going to get the high PCS scores right from the getgo.

Ok, I'm a "bad" skating fan, I refused to get up at 5:00am to see the event live.
Weekends are my one chance to sleep in! LOL
Starting the event now on NBC Gold, and will read the thread as I catch up. Time to feel like a dirty old man again as I check out the guys! LOL

I'm just watching the men now, so I'll find out soon enough, but the rinkmonster has been quite insatiable, hasn't it?

That foot commercial on the boards is killing me
I knew that would get metioned! It was mentioned in the Pairs, Ladies, and now the Men. Did it get mentioned in the Dance thread too?

I am so happy for Michal Brezina. At the beginning of this season I was wondering why he hadn't retired yet since last years were a complete disappointment. And here he is: skating better than ever. I simply adore the veterans returning from shadows, performing against all the youngsters and exceeding everyone's expectations. I hope he'll be able to obtain tomorrow the silver medal and that we'll see him in Vancouver.

I think he's just soooo cute! It was good to see him skate so well today, after his recent injury.

Hahahah, I think I was the one who started it in the Pairs thread yesterday. Can someone explain at least what the feet advertise? Some relaxing feet lotion, feet massage or a chiropody clinic?

As much as you don't want to hear/do this, you have to focus on the toes.
LOL
Two toes on each foot look like they have a bandage on them, but it looks like there's a brace of some sort attached to each bandage. I think it's some sort of device that helps keep the toes straight or keeps them from overlapping each other.

He does smile. Just not after bad skate. Which I find perfectly normal.

Ok, getting back to the competion.
Was happy to see Bychenko skate as well as he did, given recent injuries. He seemed happy with this SP, I hope the long is clean for him.
Cha: Shame about his combo, but he was still great. LOL at the arm-clock moments. Talk about literal!
Brezina: Good for him! Nice to see him put a clean skate together like that! Now, to see him on the podium!!!
Hanyu: Breaking 100! 106.69 for the short program total, amazing!
I still want to find Bychenko and give him a big hug! LOL He is too cute, but I must say, Phillip Harris is a cutie too!

His smile is too powerful. If he smiled all the time, it would emit too much sunlight and blind all of his competitors and that wouldn't be fair.
