2023 JGP Cup of Austria Men's Short Program

This music sounds like something that would be playing in the background in a restaurant.

But, it worked!

Lovely programme to start the day. Let's hope it continues like this (but I doubt that it will! It's the boys, after all!)

Great start. Well done.

Very good start for Tonghe (and smart to take out the flip after getting edge calls even in domestic competitions).
It's only his second junior-eligible season, so there's still a lot of time to get the more difficult jumps

Tonghe did great, but I was a little disappointed in the music and interpretation. I feel really good about putting him in bronze, though!

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Oooh...Nice skate by Tonghe!

 

[Jeanie19]

Tonghe. Nice skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Well at least he didn't say "Constantinople"

You had to, didn't you. Now I'm going to have that song stuck in my head all day!

By the way, the guy that wrote it, Jimmy Kennedy, went to my school.

I think in cases like this it's not so much about interpreting the music but carrying the program by the visuals you produce yourself.

NGL I kind of want to see that now.

And also getting backed into a corner when too many people get on.

Hmm I don't know if it's my laptop but the sound quality doesn't seem to be great.

im ngl I thought Nikita was someone else and put him pretty high in my predictions

 

[anonymoose_au]

That was a fine donut spin for which I applaud this lad.

 

[balabam]

@CrazyKittenLady are you there? I didn't notice any angry cats in the audience so far

Before they were announced, she said whether she would go would depend on the entries. It's a long journey from Graz to Linz.

I think @yesterday is a local, though, and so might be there.

Woohoo! Go Adrian! May your green shirt be a good sign!

Is this accordion music though

 

[elektra blue]

i keep reading KornSpritz in the adds. @balabam this is your influence

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Oh, funky Bolero again - Is this going to become as much of a warhorse as its non-funky parent version?

random fall, everyone take a drink
