2023 U.S. Nationals Sr. Men's Short Program

[Ravyn Rant]

Good to see Andrew back, I missed him. The second skate was nice, but being promised "Unchained Melody" from The Righteous Brothers sets up expectations for what I'm about to hear. Not hearing the original recording makes Ravyn a grumpy bird.

And one lonely voice is heard screaming for Mitchell, and that voice would be mine. I just love him. Someone who labors long hours in a cold ice rink in the hope of making it here to Nationals as an end goal. And he accomplished his goal and skated a cleanish program and I’m so proud

thanks for the backstory - I'm rooting for him now - thanks for cheering him on!

Go Dinh!

 

[yelyoh]

Good for Michell. Looks a little like Patrick Chan facially. And so good to see Andrew.

 

[yelyoh]

Ah Dinh started so well. Nothing for combo. Could have been ten points higher.

 

[GGFan]

Despite the jump mistakes this program is good packaging for Dihn. He just needed to own those last 45 seconds more.

Dinh: good 3A and boffed the lutz.

Like the choreo and presentation. I believe Dinh is a full time engineering student in college, so his commitment to skating at this level is impressive.

I think the music makes him rush his jump timing

Lovely skater, great potential!

I love skaters who aim to have many lives

Love Samuel Mindra. Super nice guy.

 

[labgoat]

I am not familiar with Samuel so fun for me

 

[GGFan]

Senior national debut sleeveless. I love the confidence.

 

[yelyoh]

Whoa a hot Sam on ice.

 

[labgoat]

Should we be skating to Earthquake in California?

 

[CellarDweller]

@CellarDweller can you find us Mr Freeze…

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Just caught up with Euros Men on replay, setting up to watch US Men soon, hope I'm in time to see Jimmy Ma!

 

[labgoat]

He could be Lucas Britschgi’s cousin

 

[Ruthypegs]

Good for Michell. Looks a little like Patrick Chan facially. And so good to see Andrew.

He does, doesn't he - the same hairline and eyebrows.

 

[moonvine]

Ahhh I adore him. Now THAT was a SS. I think it’s his first year as a Senior?
