2021 Skate Canada: Men's Short Program

[norwegianfairytale]

Well it could have been worse. But Sasha, why can’t you just skate clean for once?

 

[LittleLotte29]

This step sequence would be fire if he actually listened to the music

 

[EdgeCall]

That was the red pill. The ugly truth.

 

[Jontor]

Well done Alex! HUGE 4Lz, you just need to clean up those other jumps

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Ohh Sasha, you cactus! That 4Lz is a thing of beauty though, the distance it covers!

 

[anonymoose_au]

I love this program! The green tie totally makes the costume.

He's Morpheus

 

[text_skate]

CBC is quite a bit behind

 

[Ichatdelune]

What kind of chicken Russian men eat? Why are they all so tall?

(thinks of Petr Gumennik and chokes on peach ice tea again)

 

[yume]

I mean Sasha, you skated a fantastic SP at Russian cup i think or was it test skates?
It would be better if you were doing the same in competitions that actually matters.

 

[TontoK]

What the hell was that?

Who choreographed Samarin's program? Was it a plant from a competitor's camp?

 

[DSQ]

I love Samerin. He skates exactly how I would.

[Lutzedge]

Poor Samarin! He has been struggling in competition.

 

[madisonfw]

You're right. It's "What Is It About Her?" from "The Wild Party"

Thank you, I really liked it!

 

[LiamV426]

LOL hes wearing Kaoris costume

I was waiting for him to behead a judge...

 

[anonymoose_au]

Ohh Sasha, you cactus! That 4Lz is a thing of beauty though, the distance it covers!

I know! I was worried he wouldn't be able to make a combo at all due to lack of room!

But for Sasha S.

 

[ladyjane]

Poor Alexander. The music is fitting but when the jumps aren't there it does all feel a bit empty. I hope he improves. His 4L did work though.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Nah, didn’t like it. Samarin is just too uncharismatic to pull this off. The choreography was embarrassing. There was also no blade in the judges’ faces.

 

[Jeanie19]

Samarin. I love the program and when skated clean it will be fantastic.

 

[Jontor]

What the hell was that?

Who choreographed Samarin's program? Was it a plant from a competitor's camp?

Well, he sometimes looks like a skating log, but I think this program is great for him!
