16. Shunsuke NAKAMURA
Larger Than Life, Everybody by Backstreet Boys

3A
3Lz+COMBO (stepout)
CSSp?
3F
FCSp?
StSq?
CCoSp?

SP: 68.39 (3rd)

This program should be amazing. Unfortunately, Shunsuke is giving instead of camp, which is such a shame because his SP last season was one of my favourites and I think the choreography and music cuts are all there. Now, he just needs to sell the program at 110% like I know he can. At least his 3A has gotten more consistent and his spins are much better.

Shunsuke. Really good outfit, great program. So sad about the combo.

 

[Ichatdelune]

I genuinely loved that, I almost forgot that he lost his combo because I was so into it

 

[jgg220]

I saw the costume and thought Matrix. I heard the music and thought awful. Imagine Dragons must be banned.

 

[Ichatdelune]

That shade of green makes me think of a frog/toad but interesting full jump

 

[labgoat]

As you can tell I just got power back

 

[yuumagical]

Hope this Danish boy is able to get more ice time and work on his spins...

Perhaps intended to evoke a dragon? Certainly not a natural shade of green

18. Jaekeun LEE
Movement by A. Hozier-Byrne

3A
3F
CCoSp?
3Lz+3T
FCSp?
StSq?
CSSp?

SP: 73.78 (2nd)

This program is so good and so unique. Jaekeun is a great skater, and he doesn't stalk his 3A unlike the rest of the Korean men. I remember when he was but a wee mushroom skating to Yuzuru tribute programs, and now look at him. His spins are fantastic, and his jumps solid considering he's been going through a growth spurt

 

[elektra blue]

good job Jaekun!

 

[Ichatdelune]

THAT'S MY BOY

Seriously my darling squirtle did a wonderful job with the choreo and man Jaekeun does it right

 

[yuumagical]

Jaekeun just killed it!

 

[Jeanie19]

Jaekeun. Really nice outfit and he has good posture and presence on the ice.

 

[elektra blue]

THAT'S MY BOY

Seriously my darling squirtle did a wonderful job with the choreo and man Jaekeun does it right

if only the sound quality was better

 

[elektra blue]

boy, a Martini, please, no ice

 

[jgg220]

An untied bowtie plastered to his shirt, forced casual arms positions, and removing a fake hat all in the first three seconds of the program. Bring back Javier Fernandez, the only man in the history of skating who could pull all of those things off tolerably!!!!

Hmm white gloves
