Wow, what a comeback skate with 6 quads! Could seriously move him way up. He seems *bit* emitional

Pretty sure the 3rd jump was another 4F

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

His tech score is going to beat his SP score.

‘Murica!

 

[bobbob]

WOW! So good considering his lackluster practices. He's not completely out of medal contention yet.

 

[loop9497]

Thank you! Oh I'm so happy and relieved for Nathan! Good job. So awesome he even went for the sixth quad. And even though he fell on one he got it around. I'm pleased and I hope he is pleased with himself as well.

Tears.

 

[Ylyzybyth]

Amazing!!!

 

[Jammers]

Nathan's drive for 2022 started tonight.

 

[WeakAnkles]

REDEMPTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And that was a lovely and musical step sequence.

 

[friedbeefmince]

wowwwwww that TES....

Nathan
I am pretty sure this Olympics make you much stronger next season! Well done!

 

[Jedi]

Nathan does it. S and M moment maybe -well probably not but a medal is not impossible. Poor Patrick a sitting duck. Aliev, Chan, Kolyada and Rippon have no chance against Nathan.

 

[Spirals for Miles]

That'll be a SB for sure. Probably over 200 for the free. He could do it guys, he could do it. No one else has six quads!

 

[firal]

Nathan!! Thank you for the come back! I was getting emotional there...

If anyone compares this skate to Mao’s in Sochi....

No. Just no. Two footed skating and throwing in jumps at random.

Preach

If anyone compares this skate to Mao’s in Sochi....

No. Just no. Two footed skating and throwing in jumps at random.

Word.

It was fine. Not amazing, not his best, but certainly checks the box for redemption arc.

Also, his tech score isn’t that nuts compared to Hanyu’s in his world record FS.

 

[Amei]

Well, lots and lots of crossovers

I'm sorry Tara, I just don't see how he has it all with this performance.

Yeah, the commentators were collectively losing their perspective, it was nothing but basic skating between jumps.

 

[Spirals for Miles]

Yes yes yes yes yes!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[colormyworld240]

Crying at Nathan's amazing skate. Need the olympics to be over so I can go back to being a normal human

 

[Yatagarasu]

I am glad he got in the jumps but boy, that was one horrible program.

I don't think it can get emptier and his skating. ..
