2024 JGP Solidarity Cup Men's FS

[lariko]

Stefania and Elina are in positions to make the JGPF, so... Also Yihan.

And I certainly hope you were also complaining when it was just Russians with the occasional Japanese or Korean skater thrown in making the JGPF.

Yes I was. I like all different countries and region on each podium and each competitions. I will watch nationals if I want the same country winning

 

[Ichatdelune]

we will find out at JGPF

Please and thank you, skating gods and whoever else I need to mention.

And how did I once again get all of the skaters in the top 5, but in completely the wrong order?

i got Anthony and Sena ah les cactus

3. Tamir KUPERMAN (ISR)
4. Lukas VACLAVIK (SVK)
5. Anthony PARADIS (CAN)

but then, do you care if it's only Ontario winning or do you want one from each province

IMO judging is going back to what it was 15 years ago: They judge the skates, not the federations and coaches. We will never get rid of host country rewards, but othervise it has been quite fear this season what I have watched. And also "lower level" skaters got rewards from elements they do good. I haven't watched much this season and seniors so far not at all so this bases only to a few competitions and disciplines.

If you take the Challengers so far out of the equation you are right... it´s going in the wrong direction there but for JGP I agree. One of the reasons I love JGP.

Sure want our Western kids to be on the podiums too!

I hope Nebelhorn women was just an outlier, that was spectacularly bad judging.

Um. I think you might have my predictions there!

slim picking from Alberta though you do have the current National women champ

Lombardia was a bit weird as well but not as bad as Nebelhorn... The funny thing about it I expected it to be the other way around.

Time to see if anything is happening in Canada. @4everchan is it still on?

 

[norwegianfairytale]

My predictions went into the toilet but already the next weeks predictions are up so new chance to mess it up again

Now time to look forward to some Ballrom Blitz and Proud Mary in Kazakhstan next week

 

[YuBluByMe]

Congratulations to Vaclavik. My brain is too fried to work out the GPF implications of that.

He has 24 points (4th + gold). Same as Seo Minkyu, but Minkyu is above him due to the combined total tiebreaker. He’s above Nakamura, who also has 24, but a silver and bronze. Takahashi’s the top qualifier so far with 28.

there are two events... SGE in Quebec and the other one in Alberta.. I haven't paid much attention but senior man (only Edrian skated this morning) and he sorta marked his jumps LOL but the rest should be happening all day.

Minkyu has 26

Whoa that was one excellent ride...
I can't process this until I've had some sleep - gotta man the blood bank tonight.
Gonna think of Anthony's shirt all night

 

[Ichatdelune]

I have decided to believe that if Minkyu made it to JGPF after that SP Jaekeun can definitely grab a spot, don't tell me otherwise or I'm not going to be able to go to sleep. Right now the plan is to finally do something non-skating related and trying again to fix my sleep schedule, wish me luck on the latter. Thank you all so much for keeping me company, see you next week
