2018 Skate Canada Men's Short Program

[GGFan]

Sorry about that fall for Shoma. Great program and performance in general. The music gets really fast toward the end, so he'll have to add even more intensity to the footwork. Once he does it will be spectacular. Side eye on the GOE for the 4F

I think Shoma just experience a classic Canadian toboggan ride... is he ok??

 

[Zhafiraiha]

You know what it happens to the best of us. We still have free let’s go Shoma!

 

[auser]

Oh noooo that was such a hard fall! :sad21::sad21:

Scary looking fall :eekn:. Glad he seems okay.

Well, that was very unexpected from Uno. Strong on the opening 4F, but a stuttery landing on the 4T+3T. And a wild crash-in-the-boards fall on the 3A on an element he's usually +3 or more on. He was just leaning very forward in the air and he couldn't catch himself. Maybe because of that, his spins and footwork were a bit more controlled and careful than usual. But you can see the wondrous potential of the program with the music matching his intensity and sharpness.

I knew somehow Shoma would fall after all those clean skates. :hopelessness:

My boyfriend became very enamored of the word “floop” after Shoma gave him cause to learn it, and now we call Shoma Floopy... we meant it endearingly, not literally.

At least Shoma seems to be okay physically. That fall really scared me. But it was... the onomatopoeic version of a floop.

[AJVMSA8588]

wow. . .not what i expected from Shoma. I think by the end of the year it will be an exciting program

 

[Zhafiraiha]

Okay I love Shoma but I don’t know how to feel about him getting second despite that fall, what do we think folks?

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Shoma's scoring: travesty. Ridiculous.

 

[mau]

The costume from Lombardia was better. Maybe that’s the reason.

Switch it asap Shoma

 

[sunnystars]

oh my lord
I thought he was gonna smash himself to the boards

 

[Zhafiraiha]

Yeah Shoma’s costume isn’t doing it for me

Okay I love Shoma but I don’t know how to feel about him getting second despite that fall, what do we think folks?

After so many strong performances, I agree it's a little bit too much maybe
