2022 JGP Czech Skate Men's Free Skate

[NoNameFace]

Holy smokes, but Nozoku's jumps are quality when they are on. And that knee bend!

 

[Green Carrots]

I think he can be happy with that, nice! Hopefully it will give him more confidence next time. Spins

If he doesn't win this I'll be very surprised. Still, please work on those spins. It will be very difficult for Minkyu to make the podium here without any Ultra-C-elements, he'll have to be basically perfect.

 

[Ichatdelune]

I just want Minkyu to get a medal I don't care about the color please skating gods ugh where is the liquor-infused chocolate

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Good job, Nozomu!
Finally TWO ROTATED 4Ts!!! (usually pops one)
Not sure what's going on with his normally techbook Lutz though

Contrary to Haru, Nozomu has always been a talented jumper but his performance will put you to sleep

 

[lariko]

I love references to Shoma Uno, the World Champion

 

[jgg220]

With some experience, I believe Yoshioka can join the ranks of best swashbuckling in skating with such icons as Javier Fernandez, Adria Diaz, and--most impressively--Alena Leonova.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

 

[elektra blue]

Minkyu is such a cute little pumpkin, can i adopt him @Ichatdelune and have one more reason to be nervous at competitions?

 

[lariko]

Aww, young Korean skater! Must be under such pressure. Looking super squeaky clean!

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Sorry, but

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Minkyu is so good but that sal and axel combo is going to cost him big time.

 

[lariko]

Ouch… that’s sad.

 

[Ichatdelune]

UGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH MINKYU WAS THIS CLOSE TO A PERFECT SKATE

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Arrrrg noo, so close to skating clean But it was excellent skating! So beautiful

I think this might just be enough for silver if his TES doesn´t drop!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Minkyu is such a cute little pumpkin, can i adopt him @Ichatdelune and have one more reason to be nervous at competitions?

You have my blessing

 

[YuBluByMe]

UGH! Little dude was headed towards the podium (naybe even the top) until the fall on the last jumping pass. I was rooting for him! He’s an all-arounder that one.

 

[Green Carrots]

Nooo, the ending Such a shame on the last combo, OMG he really could win if he did it!! Poor boy... I believe all his achievements are in the future

No He might still make it onto the podium - His TES are still very high even with the fall, and PCS will be above the others. We'll have to wait.

Edit: No, just off the podium But he's just 13, this is his first JGP, and he will medal very soon. Also, no funny pictures of Nikolaj next to Minkyu.

 

[TT_Fin]

You don't often see a 13 yo boy skate so beautifullly.
