The transitional content in this program is insane, but it just wasn't quite as solid as SkAm. However, a bronze medal here will see Kevin into the Final UNLESS NHK chaos or Shun wins and Kao is second or Shun gets a high-enough score.

Lol, I just can't take this program seriously. Are we really, really sure this is not meant as a parody?

Pretty solid skate by Kevin - Well done! He always has interesting choreography and is fully invested in performing, which I appreciate. However, I find his jumping technique, especially his landings, a bit off-putting.

Kevin wanted to stay safe, not sure if that was a wise move. But ice is slippery, let's see.

Interesting to see the program from such different angles.

Very happy he skated it so well - now he has done his job and everything that happens is up to the others but I think he can be very content with himself.

Aymoz was better in the first GP. There were better camera angles there too that apparently gave the program more impact. The start and finish are very good, but there’s dead space in the middle. This should go above Rizzo.

we are I see it very seriously.

I just love Kevin and I love this bolero. I usually groan at Bolero because it is so badly done, but this is a masterful artistic exploration of a Bolero. I have been looking forward to seeing it here and am not disappointed. Even the mistakes are creative. Love it!

Maybe I'm in the minority but I think Kevin skates slowly, the choreo is a bit empty and there's a lot of posing here and there.

Beautiful music. Good skate. Kevin

I love Aymoz and I think Fontana is a good coach for him but seeing her face does not exactly make me very happy, sorry. I still remember the nasty scandal with Ciprès and that poor underage girl. I am struggling to believe she didn't know. :/


I am sorry for derailing this thread but I had to let it out.

Love Kevin's artistry and passion. That choreo sq at the end is why I love watching skating.

This was much slower and skated for safety. I think it was the right decision.

Go Koshiro!
