2022 JGP Solidarity Cup Men's Free Skate

[Jeanie19]

Yudong. Great skate. 2 quads and 3A.

I think we will need to do Yudong kill count.

He used to coached by Volkov probably why reminds you of Artem

His skaters do tend to have the same vibes, cool that I picked up on that without knowing about him having been coached by Volkov.

Yudongs reactions

He came back to slay, and he did

he decided to not let me get a perfect 0 in men?

 

[norwegianfairytale]

His FS score almost as high as the current leaders total

He still has a way to go to give me points, but everything can happen It´s the men after all! Top 5 is possible now!

Darn I totally missed Yudong slaying.. I'm glad he didn't fall five times again

Seemed to lose a bit of his energy towards the end, but a very solid skate.

Yeah I can tell who his male skaters are or were pretty easily as they all have the same style even his international once. I dont know if its a good thing tho

What you missed most, was him screaming like a gorilla after the skate (of happiness)

 

[Jeanie19]

Jakob. I love his outfit, he looks elegant. Good skate.

 

[TT_Fin]

I came just in time to see Yudong. No more duties today. Jacob's Fs style is great. He looked pleased.

 

[Jeanie19]

Yudong kill count 1.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Ok so does anyone know who's going to win? Francois is French, Naoki is hot mess, Lucas is recovering from injury, Nozomu is also hot mess/has backloaded 4T, Joseph Klein doesn't have a 3A planned, and Raffaele is Italian. I think a random generator might be more accurate than our guesses

I have Yudong in 2nd. So I have hope to get points for him.

Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of very strong country/school styles. Some small details/skating properties, like most Japanese-coached skaters having a super soft knee-bend on jump landings and great skating skills? I'm all for it... But not in the way it is in Volkov's skaters.

 

[TT_Fin]

I have not made predictions this season because lack of time but I think winning in lottery is more obvious so I skip it and maybe do it for bigger comps.

 

[Jeanie19]

Luca. Sad to fall on the ending pose. This is a good program for him.

 

[Jeanie19]

Yudong kill count 2.

He's such a nice, elegant skater, but his jumping technique isn't the best, there's not a lot of speed and flow in them.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Okay, here's what random.org says

1. Naoki ROSSI
2. Yudong CHEN
3. Alec GUINZBOURG
4. Lucas BROUSSARD
5. Raffaele Francesco ZICH
6. Michael XIE
7. Casper JOHANSSON
8. Joseph KLEIN
9. Ryoga MORIMOTO
10. Francois PITOT
11. Nozomu YOSHIOKA
12. Younghyun CHA
13. Heung Lai ZHAO

I want a homemade lasagna if it's close to accurate (and I will do all of my predictions with a random generator in the future)
