...no? Rizzo is in the free, Julian Yee is out

Sad, sad but I did point out to my family.

Come, Julian is skating now!

 

[HollyRose]

Don’t forget the good eyebrows.

Yes, of course, how could I forget!! :hslap:

 

[SarahSynchro]

Not if you are Russian!

Guys, I found Carol Lane!

 

[silverfoxes]

Well, I couldn't have both of my favorites do amazingly well. But Dima skating well is so satisfying after the endless hype for Milquetoast and Dima being virtually ignored. If he gets higher PCS with his usual performance...ugh

 

[ioanablabla]

They're resurfacing. The twitch stream should come back afterwards.

I want the twitch stream

 

[draqq]

Rizzo was criminally undermarked and he’s out of the free for it.

No, he qualified for the free skate. No worries there.

Been watching the event with my family because Julian was skating so could not post much here.

I hope you guys are enjoying yourselves.

Julian was so beautiful! [emoji173]

 

[Icey]

what's the highest short program score ever received?

 

[Yatagarasu]

Guys, I found Carol Lane!

 

[da96103]

I think only 3 or 4 missed Quads though

Quads have been mostly good today

But like you said, the Quad heavy final group's coming up
so that could change but hopefully not (Knock on wood!!!)

Surprisingly, and that's good. Final group beckons.

 

[satine]

Everyone ready for GS to crash/update at 10 pages per minute?

 

[SarahSynchro]

Someone needs to collect Adam Rippon quotes for an inspirational coffee table book.

Why stop there? Bumper stickers, t-shirts, wall decals, window clings, mugs...

 

[HollyRose]

Now I'm feeling the nerves for Yuzuru. I was calm until now, but now... :eeking: I have faith in him, but am still scared.

 

[purpledream]

I think looking at the last 6 formidable names Patrick won't make that final group
But Aliev has a great shot at it

Ohman pChiddy

 

[Blushingheart]

Group of death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

[Harriet]

So sad to see that Chafik won't make the FS. I know he telegraphs his jumps for the length of the rink and doesn't have the world's most brilliant skating skills, but he's such a fun performer and I love his choppy energy and personality. I'll miss his roll-sleeved Godfather in the free.

Extremely happy for Bychenko, though!

 

[Metis]

I hope Nathan does well, especially after that practice, but if Hanyu opens strong, all I can see is the look of “I’m not going to make it” defeatism he had entering his first jumping pass before each fall. And then he just seemed afraid of even attempting to jump.

Either way, I’m holding my breath until he lands the 3A.

 

[NAOTMAA]

4 years ago in Sochi a score of 60 guaranteed you a spot in the free. This year you need a 74. #progress

Feeling sad for Denis, Julian and MCM.

is it really progress or are the judges just getting crazy stupid with the scores?

or are there extra elements, new higher element base values, or something else that makes the scores higher? Because it seems like the splatting is even worse if possible so the scores shouldn't be going up

 

[Mista Ekko]

I need Yuzuru's SP to be over

Can't breathe

 

[SarahSynchro]

I can sense Johnny getting nervous that Adam is going to take his job when he retires from skating. I love it.

I'm getting so nervous. I need Yuzu, Javi and Nathan to all do well.

I really hope he does. Tara and Johnny: bye Felicia. Ashley and Adam for 2022!
