2018 Worlds Mens Free Skate

[GGFan]

I so wanted to see if Mikhail would have done better without the planned fall on the 4Lz. I'm glad he didn't fall apart but he deserves better programs than this

 

[cheerknithanson]

Omg Mikhail might still beat Shoma :shocked:

He did have almost a 6-point advantage.

Oh dear.

WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON

 

[iorii]

what in the WORLD is happening?

 

[coldblueeyes]

Misha just guaranteed three spots for russia, at least.

 

[sinless69uk]

This is wrestling. One fall will win.

 

[r2d2]

Nathan looked very powerful in sp, but today anythng is possible

 

[ivanja]

Uno actually scored 52 points more than Boyang in the free skate. Those are some crazy double standards.

 

[Ares]

The splatfest keeps up.

 

[msaidi]

This is my first time watching fs love. I don't deserve this. T.T

None of us desere this

 

[friedbeefmince]

Uh, I thought Kolyada's start to the program looked really good and then he just ... Well, didn't even have that many falls, rather the pops and missed combo.

yep but pop are more costly under the current system :/

 

[GGFan]

Is Vincent going to Kimmie Meissner this??

 

[da96103]

I think Shoma will medal.

Kolyada needs 186 to beat Shoma but his TES only 86.

 

[Matilda]

I'm still gutted for Boyang. That's all :sad21:

 

[Warwick360]

deduction -9.00 must be a record.

Just realised, on the Men's perhaps. But Alena Leonova has already reached that level of rock bottom already.

 

[silverfoxes]

That wasn't terrible. But it's hard to be much worse than Boyang's meltdown.

When two falls and a few pops "aren't terrible" - oh, the privilege of being perceived as a "top man"...

 

[Anni234]

if the US walks out of this with 2 medals.... that would be a surprise of the year

 

[Danny T]

I'm glad Olys is the last event of the season everyone can go home now

(jesus usfa gonna go 1-2 kill me now)

 

[anonymoose_au]

Can't believe people here thought he would go clean. What are you smoking?

Well he tries hard. I was just hoping he could maybe do it. It's a shame.

On the plus side, he's got some great triple axels.

Another rough performance for Kolyada. Fall on the opening 4Lz, which I just expect now. A forward landing on the 4T, a fall on the second 4T+rep, and a popped 3Lo into a double. The 3As were strong and he still kept his focus on the spins for the most part, but he's still not going to be happy with that performance. He's really lost momentum in the second half of his season. Let's see if he can regroup for next year.
