2021 Skate America: Men's Short Program

[yelyoh]

Man-Bun Jimmy is not playing around. Taking it to a new level. So proud of him!!

 

[moonvine]

Is this skate order random? Or is Vincent that low in World standing?

In the previous events this season the short has been completely random and the long has been in exact reverse order. And yes SIR Jimmy Ma. I agree with Johnny. Best I’ve ever seen him skate.

 

[Weathergal]

Loved this skate from Jimmy Ma! And +3 GOE to the ponytail for coming undone dramatically at the end of his skate.

I always hoped there would be a fad diet called Cheese Works, since Atkins et al. never appealed to me.

Anyway, go Jimmy!

I want this diet to become a fad. I need an excuse to eat cheese all day

Vincent gives this his best, and I appreciate it. It will never be my style, but he has grown on me.

And I love Jimmy and his man bun. He's Jimmy, he doesn't try to be anything but Jimmy, and he's compelling.

Well done, boys!

 

[YuBluByMe]

Aaaaaand Ma follows up with what may be a season’s best performance. He’s taking that sixth place Nationals finish seriously!

 

[Seven Sisters]

Jimmy Ma absolutely proving that he deserves to be at Skate America, no doubt about it. Great job, Jimmy!! Proud of ya

 

[Beckaboomer]

Wow the American men are representing tonight! Way to go Jimmy! You even made Black Swan mildly interesting for me again.

 

[Dogo]

That's how I should get my hair ready in the mornings. Great job Jimmy

 

[Makkachin]

What a nice start, I love seeing Vincent and Jimmy do well

 

[msteach3]

Vincent was fantastic! I adore the program and his ability to really express the music. I thought it might hit 100, but oh well, was still a SB.

Good job Jimmy!

 

[Princessroja]

Well, the hair is unique and the music cuts are... uniquer... lol but another great skate and I'm 99% sure he's going to WELL beat his prior PB of 73 and change.

 

[Jontor]

What a great start for the Americans!!

 

[cathlen]

Go, grandpa, go!

 

[moonvine]

Hey Jimmy! I miss your hip-hop but I'm glad that weird swan lake is working for you!

Jimmy is the spirit of an evil swan.
