Ooo nice!!

Andrei A!!!! Cheers extra loud on behalf of @CrazyKittenLady as well.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Pop!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

oh no it was going well until that axel pop

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Oh it's a Zeppelin on his shirt! Hmm maybe I need my eyes checked again.

It's based on the "Celebration Day" album cover:

Should I admit that from a distance I thought that was a Batman t-shirt that he was wearing?

Or that I bought a Batman t-shirt one time because my main skating crush did a Batman programme?

Nah, I'll keep those things to myself.

I like the fact that a large part of Russians can have access to figure skating but why nats in Siberia? I'm not used to see so much empty seats for that kind of competitions.

 

[Jontor]

Oh Anisimov. Very costly mistakes. Another one probably out of the top 10.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Dang poor Andrei A...

Give the lad an ice cream.

Is that Zhenya S next?! Dang my faves are coming thick and fast here! I have no time to put on my laundry

 

[Mariiiiskate]

now for our gold medal contender! Davai Zhenya!

 

[Pairluv]

Vika's face.

Its a shame considering how filled and lively the jumping competition was as well, kinda wanted that atmosphere in nats as well.

 

[yume]

Yeonjun Zhenya on the ice.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Um I kinda feel I should tell Channel One that scating isn't what they think it is. :

But you go Zhenya S!

Empty seats are not only because of Siberia but because it's Thursday. But yes, not so many people like the idea of having Nats there.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Zhenya is so determined and consistent this season which didn't seem like it was going to be the case for him at the beginning of the season with the injuries and all

This is really shaping up to be his season

 

[Pairluv]

While I prefer Lutfullin, I'm just so glad to see Semenenko back on the ice and skating well after his terrible concussion. Good for him. Mishin has a really good group of skaters this season.

 

[EdgeCall]

Tbh the program doesn't give me much but this was a very strong point!

 

[Jontor]

Evgeni clean! I think we have a new leader, although I liked Andrei more.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Yay Semenenko! Clean! That first spin was nice. He’s improved quite a bit. But this should be second. Mozalev was better.

 

[anonymoose_au]

On the plus side the crowd that's there sound very involved

Is Grumpa cracking a smile there?

Also is there any order to this, or is it totally random?
