2018 US Championships Sr Men FS

Colm Wilkinson coming to the party at last *bless*

Not totally sure which recording that was though, the Javert didn't sound like the 10th anniversary, the OBC or the 25th anniversary though, hmmmm so it may not be him even though I thought it was.

ETA: Now that I'm rehearing it, I'm sure it is Colm Wilkinson but am still uncertain with the Javert in the last portion. Maybe OBC. nobody does that high note at the end like Colm Wilkinson.

I always liked that fart guy.

We're getting so immature here!

 

[fleeting]

I really enjoy Hochstein's skating... I still think he's one of the best artistic skaters in the US. And he has a quad, usually....

Also: I want to see a Les Mis program to Master of the House. Please!

 

[TCAngel18]

Arrrrgh. Good fight at the end, but the beginning cost him.

 

[NicolettaL]

Sorry Grant, indeed your performance brought you home instead of Pyeongchang.

OMG XD
I'm sorry it's tragic for him but I laughed so much

 

[Violet Bliss]

Gorgeous spread eagles!

 

[OS]

He always URs. Just because he gets away with it usually, doesn't mean he should here. It's still super high, that PCS is a joke for what he delivered.

Can't say I disagree with you, but this is the US nationals, and we havn't seen wha they are 'planning' to mark others yet. I am expecting to see 10s lol...

 

[Yatagarasu]

Ah pity, pity.

I didn't notice until tonight that Grant is a clockwise jumper/ spinner.

 

[kevinVchicago]

Fancy pants says 163 for Grant

Are the Brown judges cooking PCS like there's no tomorrow right now?

 

[SarahSynchro]

I missed half of Grant because my sister wanted me to clean stuff off the bathroom floor.

Some advice for the Olympics: lock your entire family in a closet when skating is on.

Vincent, Mirai... Tom Z sure knows how to coach those jumps!

Lol, he needs to help out Karen then [emoji24][emoji23]

 

[HollyRose]

Grant I was so hoping he could make the team! Oh, well, still a good effort.

 

[ExMaleSkater]

Man, he really settled in and finished strong. Too bad about the first half. Magic SP though.

 

[jillredhand]

well unless Jason completely implodes we know they'll give him the third spot. I think its pretty obvious

I wouldn't say so at all. I'm a big Jason fan, and I'd rather see him go-- but my reaction after Vincent's was that there's no way the US fed doesn't send that tech content to the Olympics. If Jason is anything less than perfect, I think they'll leave him at home. It's freaking me out.

 

[blue_idealist]

I really enjoyed the second half of that program, he looked like he was really enjoying himself out there. Even if he doesn't make the Olympics, I'm hoping for a trip to post-Olympic worlds for him if someone decides not to do it due to fatigue or whatever.

 

[AudreyTheFey]

Can I give Grant bonus points for skating to the Colm Wilkinson version and not the (horrible to me) movie version?

Exactly, Vincent gets a lot of under-rotation calls on his Quads internationally too. He needs to work on that. I do see improvement though. His basic skating is weak but it looks better than last year. He was trying to perform. I do wonder what the judges are on sometimes when it comes to PCS.
