2023 U.S. Nationals Sr. Men's Free Skate

[Ruthypegs]

Good evening everyone - here to enjoy your fun company! I'm blessed because it's 19.45 local time.

Loads of great men skaters to enjoy (US - you are so fortunate!), but here above all to see Jason.

[On a side note, I'm still peeved that Ilia's PCS score was so close to Jason's. If PCS was awarded properly (i.e. independently to just landing jumps if you get my drift), I think we'd see Jason and Ilia's scores as much closer. Ilia deserves to be rewarded for his amazing technical ability but IMHO his performance skills are nowhere near that of Jason's.]

Anyhow, rant over. I'm looking forward to Yaroslav, Camden, Liam, Daniel, and the pre-Raphaelite, too.

I'm here! I've prepared everything so 18 PBP's here we go!

I'm prepared too

Let's not forget that if I'm correct that Ilia and Jason have "pre-declined" 4CC, then that means there are at least 5 teams selections to be made... provided Jason and Ilia are named to one of the teams. (I know, I know... we all expect that they WILL be, but ice is slippery and it's wisest to let things play out.)

In any event, there's a lot for these guys to skate for.

Excellent! Thanks for sharing this. That makes this event more exciting and gives Andrew and Maxim and Jimmy, a chance to fight for something.

Also, up to two spots available for Junior Worlds for those that are age-eligible.

Oh and rooting for Andrew, too - he's amazing!

[elektra blue]

If anyone in the arena has several muzzles or sedative pills in their possession, you would be doing us all a service if you administer them to the rabid screamers.

[elektra blue]

i was born ready, sir

 

[labgoat]

Okay I am going with Daniel for the win, followed by Dinh.

 

[RatedPG]

OMG! Where does he have time to just breathe. 4 solo quads followed by his three combos: two are quads with the last jump: 3Lz into a 3A!
Is this jump layout more difficult than anything Nathan Chen has gone for?

Peacock Men FS World Feed starts at 2:30p.m. EST (all skaters/no commentary)
Peacock Men FS non-World feed starts at 3:00 p.m. EST (Skips skaters & has Tara & Johnny)

Also, the World Feed has no commercial breaks but does have slow-mo replay while the non-World Feed does have commercials and no slow-mo replay while skater is in the Kiss & Cry awaiting their scores.
