2018 Olympic Figure Skating Mens SP

Who thought that aerial spin views were a good idea?!?!?

I appreciate being able to truly see the positioning, speed, and whether or not a skater is traveling. As long as the entire spin isn’t an aerial shot, it’s fine.
 
Tanaka makes me nervous (more so than Mura perhaps). Poor guy falling into the boards like that. His ending was nice and it seems to show he has a decent musicality. I hope his FS goes well.

OMG, I can't believe I missed the beginning part of Patrick's skate because I was watching snowboard cross! I just had to see if Lindsey Jacobellis could win that gold.
 
Keiji Tanaka

Hard collapse on the opening 4S (looks < as well). Very strong 3F+3T, good comeback! Fine flying spin and good combo spin to mark the start of the second half. Good landing on the 3A, just a tad to the side on the landing edge. Good speed and attack through the circular step. Fine back camel entry into the final spin.

That looked like a very harsh fall on the quad, but he should receive decent GOEs on the rest of his elements. He was able to maintain the tone of the guitar riffs, though the choreography and the speed were slightly deficient. Nonetheless, a comparable performance given his outing in the short.
