2022 Olympics Team Event Day1: Men's Short Program

[ladykk]

This music is just making me sad as I think about Misha.

 

[Haikush]

OMG, I survived! That was amazing!

Nathan should NOT be scoring over Shomo in components, just no

 

[lariko]

Grassl!! Here is from me and @electra_blue

 

[EdgeCall]

Btw. where is Mother Elektra?

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

they dont give very big scores on team event

Well it was a personal best which was deserved. I think a slightly better axel and no bobble before the lutz and he might have beat the record but if he replicates that in the individual then he should get a slightly higher score as the scores there tend to be better.

I’m not a fan of Grassl’s jump technique but this is the program I’ve seen him commit to the most. Good for him landing all of his jumps and helping his team.

 

[Jammers]

Following Nathan Grassi's skating and jumps are so scratchy.

 

[Jontor]

Yay Daniel! Great skate

 

[momrk]

Second group came to skate

 

[YuBluByMe]

Yeah, last group brought it. All clean skates, I believe.

Btw. where is Mother Elektra?

She couldn't make it it's awfully late over in Italy (or early...)

But I actually think Daniel's doing a rather good job here. I mean you can't deny that final spin.

Got yellow dots for his jumps though!

But @elektra blue your boy did his country and himself proud!

 

[SkatersWaltz]

Nathan should NOT be scoring over Shomo in components, just no

Agreed.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Btw. where is Mother Elektra?

Mamma Elektra is probably asleep

 

[Princessroja]

Wow, that was beautiful from Daniel. It's not too often men's skating moves me to tears but that was a lovely mix of athleticism and artistry. Such wonderful movement quality.

 

[lariko]

Btw. where is Mother Elektra?

She’s going be around for women and dance, couldn’t make men. Grassl was great!

 

[invisiblespiral]

Meanwhile, my boyfriend would like to add that he thinks Nathan Chen's ears look like mine.

(nice SP from Daniel but probably would've liked it better if I wasn't seeing Misha everywhere...)

 

[Lamente Ariane]

So happy for Daniel! Ending this SP on a high note

 

[el henry]

Daniel, I don't know how you do it. But I actually admire that you are able to do that.

And I do love a flexible men's skater.

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

Excellent skate by Daniel! That opening lutz was huge!
