2022 World Figure Skating Championships: Men's Free Skate

[CellarDweller]

Well, German is really tough, especially in the beginning. I felt for Bruno back in the days

Yes, German must be a really difficult language to learn.

No offense meant to any German speakers, but whenever I hear someone mention speaking German, I'm reminded of this.

if it makes it any better, I'm a HUGE fan of Nena!

Wow! What a skate from Tomas! Double axel from nowhere!
I was thinking that perhaps I should skip some of the early skaters, but I'm glad I didn't miss this one

And I thought his costume was a perfect example of an non-tacky one, while still mimicking (historically) existing clothing style. That combination is rare!

Just in time for Nikita. Had to get the cat to deal with a mouse in my kitchen...

Nikita's sleeves make those rippons look really pretty. Good call on the design.

[bartlebooth]

Messy landings but he definitely has star quality

 

[LadyB]

As much as I love Paul Fentz, it's time for new blood.

Nikita is lovely. I'm looking forward to seeing how he develops (channeling my inner Ted).

 

[Jasira]

Not as good as at Europeans, but for his first worlds it wasn´t bad. And he smiles, so I´m happy.

 

[elektra blue]

messy landings, but i enjoyed him even though he's skating to a ballad, maybe because i just had a cappuccino (not fixed, you naughty people )

 

[anonymoose_au]

Aww the smile on his face

Nikita is talented indeed! Fingers crossed he can learn German! Paul F could use a friend

[YuBluByMe]

Bit of a rough skate, but he very nice qualities. His has very good lines and a performance quality that’s going to stand out in this early group, I think.

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Nikita is such a joy to watch Small mistakes, but well done!

 

[maofan]

First time I see negative GOE on a choreographic sequence!
Judges not feeling well this morning!

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

So he does speak German

 

[Jasira]

Aww, "Dankeschön Deutschland". He is so adorable.

 

[balabam]

Can we have a happy skater at the end of program count?

Great idea. Why not?
But it is little bit subjective.
OK, it is less subjective like nice dress count
