[auser]

I am highly emotional due to some personal mess but goodness me it's middle of the night and I'm just sitting here in my bed bawling me eyes out. Absolutely gorgeous

Hats off for Junhwan for skating like that after that horrible fall

 

[satine]

Jun 3A are scary

He does take his sweet time going into them, doesn't he?

 

[Alchamei]

I'm afraid the 4T is under.

 

[RatedPG]

I loved that 3Lz-3Lo

Will be close against Hanyu.

Go Shoma!!!!!!!!!!

 

[lizardlass]

That was a beautiful, beautiful skate. So proud of him for coming back from that fall!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Ok, so I'm getting a list of favorites to watch the next quad. So far

Donovan
Adam SHF
Jun
Deniss
Yuma
Shouma (of course)

Or he could be a completely DIFFERENT kind of skater?

Like cripes, people are different! Jason fans rightfully rail against the idea he throw away his artistry for quads. Maybe extend the same respect for Moris.

It's totally fine to have a different style (e.g., I love both Keegan's style and Jason's style, which couldn't be more different), but there are a lot of weaknesses in Morisi's skating that were glaringly obvious when he skated after Jason. I respect him as a person and skater, but he does have weaknesses in his skating; it's not disrespecting him to mention them.

He pulled himself together and didn't let that hard fall distract him. Respect!!!

Brian!

I'm getting nervous now. Go Shoma!

JUNHWAN CHA -

Where's Ichat, btw? She couldn't make it tonight?

I asked that when I needed a hand, no response. I hope she is ok.

CHA Junhwan (KOR)

JF(*#FJD, darn that cursed 4T. Really heavy fall on it that took him time to recover from, but the rest of the program was there. Soaring 4S, 3Lz+3Lo, 3A+2T, 3A. A bit shaky on the 3Lz+1Lo+3S where he had to put his foot down but a good 3F to finish. His footwork really shows his improvement in artistry, making sure his movement goes through every phrase of the vocal part of this Nessun Dorma rendition. His timing is fantastic throughout the performance. And wow, that Ina Bauer moment! We'll just have to see where this stacks up...

I know everyone loves JULEITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTe!!!!!!!!! But I think maturity suits Mr Cha so much better.

The next four years should be very very interesting for him.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Jun is such a cutie!

Look at that face! Love him!

Oh dang I forgot to record Jason who's on TV right now. Boo.

 

[SnowWhite]

Does Brian change his mask to match the skater??

 

[4everchan]

GO MY BOY!!!! Shoma SHOLERO Fire!!!!!

 

[Alchamei]

Hanyu still in first

 

[kayley]

[Arigato]

Shoma!
