2018 Nebelhorn Trophy Men's Short Program

[SnowWhite]

well, first comp after that ankle injury at JW, not bad. I enjoyed the step sequence.

I am not familiar with Alexei's skating, but he is young and has room to improve.

 

[Nimyue]

lyrical music, i'm not sold yet

The second half where the music tempo kicked up was nicer. He seemed to get more into it.

Alexei Krasnozhon

Alright 3F, bit of a wild swing and one slight tap of his other foot. Hard counter entry into the 3A, hand-down. Could have a straighter spinning leg in the camel spin. Wild lean on the 3Lz+2T, but landed okay. I think his step sequence has improved and he has a wider range of movement and step vocabulary. He should watch his hands though - sometimes they become a flat platter robot hands. He just needs to work on broadening his chest and general port-de-bra.

Score: 67.32

Go Keegan!!

 

[Nimyue]

Oooo a hydroblade!

 

[ancientpeas]

He needs to do this in a Buzz lightyear costume.

Keegan Messing

Beautiful 4T+3T to open. Nice spread eagle sequence into the camel spin. He's improved his control of his glide, doesn't look as insecure on his footing. Wild swing and tap-down on the 3A. Lovely hydroblade between the step sequence and sit spin. Very difficult split jump into a well-landed 3Lz. Very fast final spin.

Score: 90.63

 

[Kitt]

Wow, Keegan looking crisp, precise and charming as usual!

 

[demarinis5]

WOW Keegan fabulous skate! Well deserved first place.

 

[Roo87]

Keegan starting off the season great, Coach Alan Doyle approves!

My favourite thing so far: this is a quote from the YT livestream when Keegan got on the ice. “He look like old grandpa” I couldn’t agree more. I wish he’d do something other than this style, PLEASE.

Alexei KRASNOZHON (USA), 18
music: "Dancing on My Own;" choreo by Scott Brown
dark blue/indigo shirt 3/4 sleeves, black pants
two triple jumps, ok
lyrical music, i'm not sold yet
combo (stream hiccup)
step sq

okay skater, okay program, but nothing to write home about (IMO!)

SCORE: 33.27 34.05 = 67.32 5/7

He would make a great pair skater.

Didn't realize Peter Frampton was training Keegan

Joke aside, a great solid skate and he looked happy too. Go Keegan.

Really the same program, just different music. But I do love his spins, and his shtick. Really the consummate showman, and even if it is the same, he is always entertaining.

I was thinking the same. I am a huge fan of both him and Kolyada, and they are both very strong skaters that only do that one style I wish they would perhaps experiment some time.

Not so exciting... I like Dmitriev the best. Keegan did a great job but his style doesn't suit my taste at all.

Always rooting for Daniel, but not his best today. Hopefully he'll have a great season finally. Can't wait to see him reach his potential.
