Donovan is going to win the crowd at the Olympics with this program.

I don't care how many times he falls, Donovan brings the bling and he brings the sass.

moonvine Mexico flag sighting hooray!

That is a great program for DC but he looked so tentative going into his jumps, telegraphing and slowing down. I'd never seen him do that before.

No one loves Donovan more than me, but my boy has always stalked his jumps. And he does get tired at the end of the FS, sometimes.

What happened there? How did he even miss a jumping pass totally? It doesn't really matter, Donovan is always great to watch. This is just a gorgeous programme and he is too.

Hallelujah, the soulless elevator music program has gone! Go Tomoki!

I keep forgetting that Hiwatashi jumps the other way. It throws me off every time.

You're right! He is a clockwise spinner. No wonder I thought his jumps looked a little weird.

AAHHH! A cantilever! Quads! A split jump! Great job, Tomoki!

 

[lariko]

Hiwatashi always a treat for me.

Honestly, Camden should drop the quad. If he skated clean with only triples, he'd be able to develop and show off more artistically. A clean program in today's quad-heavy world can go quite far, especially when you have Camden's talent for appealing skating.

I'm glad Camden is putting these quads on the ice. Successful or not. He's going to need them down the road.

This is about as low-stakes an event as he could hope to skate. If not now, when?

Honest question... when was the last time a quadless man won an international event... or even nationals from one of the top federations?

If these guys want to compete for the top of podiums... even a place on the podium... the better have quads. If they don't have them, they need to get them.

Tomoki! Always good for some unexpected moves and split jumps. Hurrah. Never mind he missed some.

Aww I'm sorry I missed it! Tomoki's so cute, remember his reaction at... Junior Worlds? Or was it Nats?

 

[yelyoh]

Tomoki is a terrific dancer /performer in the vein of Jason Brown but he was popping way too much. Hoping because just early in the season.

Very entertaining program. Can't wait to see it grow over the season. Its like watching the best bits of Gene Kelly movies on ice.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

I was wondering why Maxim was getting such loud cheers... then I remembered his home rink is the SCOB. Good luck!

 

[lariko]

Naumov! With music! Yes!

 

[anonymoose_au]

So I'm sneaky watching this at work, is Max skating to Tron or something?

Music sounds very 80s robotic movie

 

[el henry]

Yes Tomoki! Split jumps are the way to a girl’s heart

your programs this year are entrancing!
