2022 Skate Canada Challenge

[siberia82]

Corey got 64.09 (9th place), which is higher than Nam's score.

Nice level 4 st sq from Cory despite other mishaps. One of my favorite Prince costumes.

Corey's skating style is beautiful, and I agree with you that it's a lovely Prince costume.

Deanna and Maxime. That twist looked really good, and their lifts. And Deanna's dress

I could do without that forgettable music however.....

It took forever for me to download the Senior Men SP video, so I only managed to upload 4 individual performances so far, but I'll take requests for this event. These were all rejected by Dailymotion, so I had to upload them on Streamable.

I only watched the last two of the four senior pairs. Lori-Anne and Thierry had a rough skate. They missed a jump, a throw and and an entire lift. Deanna and Maxime did fairly well. They missed their SBS jumps but everything else was good including some cool lift exits. In the K&C however, Deanna looked quite frustrated and unhappy. I can't lip read well but I thought she said something like she couldn't hear very well. I don't know if she was talking about the music or during the SBS spins (if Maxime was calling out the counts).

The Senior Men LP will begin soon. Here are the links for the livestream.

I've never heard anyone skate to the Apollo 13 soundtrack. I don't think having Tom Hanks saying 'Houston, we have a problem" is a good thing to have during a freeskate.

I know, right? It's asking for doom...

 

[siberia82]

And speaking of doom, Thomas Pelletier scored a meager 95.73 in the free skate.

 

[siberia82]

Bruce Waddell is the leader after the first group with 178.88.

Scorebox, please come back to us.

It's annoying that it's missing for a large part of the performances.

 

[siberia82]

Nam is next, and I hope he has a good skate.

 

[siberia82]

Nam fell on the 4S, singled the 3A, the second jump of his second combo was a 2T instead of a 3T, and he put his foot down on the landing of the 3F.

 

[siberia82]

Nam's free skate score is 132.05, and his total score is 195.97. Currently in 1st, but that's obviously a poor showing for him, and he looked utterly dejected.

 

[siberia82]

Corey fell on the 4T and 3A, but was clean afterwards, and all of his combos were after the halfway mark.

He is such a lovely skater. I enjoyed his program even with the mishaps.
