I love you Frangi but you need to come to my pretzel school. Those spins were bad

 

[YuBluByMe]

Frangipani’s going to lose precious points on those spins. With that being said, this is one of his better SPs.

Jeanie I do have to ask, are there more than 5 programs that you don't consider as good?

our Jeanie is a cinnamon roll

 

[Karoltyna]

Yep, B E N O I T but Frangi is above it.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Good is not great.

So every program that is not a trainwreck gets a 'good'. Bless you Jeanie, and I am typing this with zero sarcasm

Gabriele. Nice outfit and program. Good skate.

he doesn't need to make the heart sign with his hands when he has that hairstyle lol

That reminds me. Last week at the Volvo Open Cup, whenever anybody did a heart sign, somebody would draw a heart onto the screen.

And it was so heartwarming seeing the reactions of the skaters to this. Especially the little kiddies, who were getting so excited and amazed that this was happening.

Ahhhh, Yuma, so good! This program was reworked significantly after Lombardia, and this was my first time seeing the new version because the organizers here will send ninja lawyers after you if you film practices. He's gotten so much better at performing, and is so much calmer when skating now too - Carolina has been such a good teacher for him. She told him to "find places to breathe", and I was really conscious of that here in this program. That step sequence is just gorgeous, and he does such a good job holding positions now.
