And on a happier note, on we go onto the Men!

All men have quads planned (except for a kid from Belarus).

7 men have two quads planned.

2 men have 4Lz and 4F planned.

I can‘t help myself but I‘m happy every time I see Anna Sherbakova

 

[AlexBreeze]

but I'm truly sorry to say I see Frolova smoking her this season

Yes I was sure Frolova will be above even before Kseniia's mistake.

 

[AlexBreeze]

For some reason Anna did a sit spin instead of a layback. It's 0.2 pts cheaper. Last season she had a layback.

Yea, thats what I mean. I am not talking about any mistakes. Clean for clean Frolova is mopping Sinitsyna this season for all aforementioned causes. Its catastrophic. Well familiar with the demented and unexplainably sadistic impudence of skating coaches I still could have never predicted this sort of shocking situation. It wasnt even a thought that crossed my mind for a picosecond. I think I stayed quiet at test skates only from disassociation. Now my trauma is being unpacked and I am fearful knowing her rockstar FS is immeasurably moreso vulgar and destructive than the SP. Tomorrow will be a hard day for artists and figure skating connoisseurs alike. Pray for Sinitsyna. Frolova enjoy your free season... I guess...

Vika does not age at all. I wish I knew her secret.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Not too bad for a skater who was preparing to compete in juniors but had to move up due to new rules.

Postarnakov is almost only top senior man who trains outside of Moscow/SPb.

Now he has landed two quads. He has never attempted to do it before.

after a season of heavy rains in Cherbourgh Bocelli kind of feels refreshing

Daniil! I remember him and his coach from last year Nationals. Have a soft spot for both of them because they looked so devastated when those skates went downhill that I truly wish from them to fight back and redeem themselves big time

Is he keeping the same SP than last season, isn't he? My stream died mid performance so can't really say how things went

But it came back just in time for the K&C. Daniil seems like a very nice guy, really hoping he can make it back to Nats this year! Good vibes to him!!
