I think I committed a faux pax in screaming before he was announced. And he got a standing O and again a clean program!!!

Kirk has a bit of the Scott Hamilton and Philippe Candeloro gene with a bit of Kurt Browning.

I see those - and also a little bit of young Jason - the personality, the bounciness, the happy.

And he still has got energy. A star is born. He may have a shot at a medal.

Big jump combo for Beck. Big fall too.
Skates with the speed, power and wild abandon of Shepherd Clark

Good job Beck!!!

I missed that his beanie said "Happy".

Also, I doubt both Kirk's programs were choreographed with the same ending, I think he threw that in there for the LP

Please keep this joie de vivre, Kirk, please

Well, not easy for Beck to follow a crowd favorite with a good skate, but he did. Good for him.

Beck says hold my water bottle

Come NYer Alec.

Now Aleksandr Fegan as the Phantom. Skating up from novice. Like him a lot. imagine him with more strength and power.

 

[el henry]

Too bad about the fall, but Alex's jumps and spins are such a joy to watch. A small boi who can even pull off POTO.

 

[yelyoh]

Very nice skate despite the fall from Alek. Love his expression and how he feels the music.

 

[labgoat]

Into third, so top 10 just out of novice

This is a great junior men's event so far. Wow, I'm enjoying this more than the whole, aggregated Grand Prix last fall. I wasn't going to give Peacock the satisfaction, but glad I broke down and forked over my $4.99 today to discover all of these fantastic young guys!

He was a bundle of joy! And probably a handful. What fun!
