2023-24 Japanese Nationals - Men's FS

Bit of a rough skate for Kazuki. With how many jumps were marked for review, I don't think that preliminary TES will stand. :(

Nice fight!:cheer2:
Good skate for him!
Jumps kinda sloppy but not unusual for him...at least no pops 👍
128.73 / 204.27
 
Yikes he's stepping out of lots of his jumps... But his commitment to the choreography is still peeking through between the jumps
 
Must be tough to go from being the reigning national silver medalist to this year's results (not sure how much of it is down to the injuries he mentioned a couple months ago)

On the replay it looks like he didn't hit his head on the 4S attempt, fortunately

Oh Koshiro...I'm so sorry :(
I really want to see this program clean(ish)
Hope we get another chance to see it
139.40 / 215.97
 
ngl, Koshiro's FS isn't my favorite this season, (i think i just Don't Like the music), but when skated more cleanly, it's very intersting to watch, however today was realllllly rough. like, i think he almost hit his head, which is slightly terrifying.

anyways, on he positive side! i'm always impressed about lack of hesitation with the choreo and program itself, like he almost hits his head and gets up like it's nothing, like it didn't even phase him, lol. that takes some guts and a lot of presentational skill! so well done on that part of things!

i really hope he isn't injured and i hope we get another shot to see this program.
