2024 U.S. Nationals Men's Free Skate

This is Ignatov level dying in the second half.

told you he reminded me of him...

 

[moonvine]

Sam is such a cutie with his entertaining dance moves. He looks like he is having a blast when skating. Which is fun to see.

He's the fifth or eighth of 10 children. I went to look for a Gofundme but couldn't find one.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Awww, poor guy. He always looks exhausted after the falls. At least the 4T+2A+2A was nice. The best jumping pass I’ve seen him in a quite a while. Good Besti squat at the start of the steps too.

 

[Ruthypegs]

seems like it's not working today...

ah - glad it's not just me - I'm only able to stream the NBC East show, with Tara and Johnny, which is currently just showing highlights of the short programme, and I'm missing out on the live skating....

 

[Seven Sisters]

Now he teaches other little bunnies to be happy, healthy, talented skaters

I once had the pleasure of sitting next to Sean at a competition. He was just as delightful and positive about the skaters competing as you would expect

 

[FlossieH]

Well, I thought I'd learnt from the women's short when the stream spent the first hour of the competition showing Jason and Ilia. Have just gone onto the stream, and what are they showing? Jason's short programme. I've seen it in every event the past couple of days. I don't need to show it again. Anyone else who is interested has surely seen it too by now...

 

[moonvine]

Oh poor Will... he could be amazing, he has the whole package, that 4T shows just what he is capable of, but the jumps never seem to be there when he needs them

He's a student at BU and also trying to do elite skating. Unless one is Nathan Chen I have found this rarely works well.

 

[Brauliomx]

Poor Will, after the quad toe, 2 axel, 2 axel it was downhill crash from there, painful to watch.

 

[labgoat]

I found myself smiling while watching Sam Mindra -- he is such a joy to watch!

That’s why we love him

is that color cactus green, Daniel?

 

[CellarDweller]

Daniel Samohin on the ice now

 

[sworddance21]

Wow. That was some ice-cold coaching reaction in the K&C by Will's coach.

 

[jgg220]

I have that exact blouse Samohin is wearing. It's so stunning I was willing to pay full price at Talbots.

Thank you! - that link wasn't working for me a few minutes ago, but I'll give it another try

does it work for you now? I tried it on my old computer and it didn't work... so maybe you must have a certain uptodate system... but what do I know

 

[Icey]

Here's a link to the Japanese commentary, if it gets streamed - https://live.qq.com/10012776 - nice soothing commentary

He's shown everything this week, but for some reason the men's lp is not on. Seems perpetually trying to load.

Adam just said......"that's how you know they have speed, their shirt billows."

 

[labgoat]

Wow. That was some ice-cold coaching reaction in the K&C by Will's coach.

That is not helpful at all.

 

[Pairluv]

Danny gave up skating to hang out on the beach and surf in San Diego. He might want to revisit that.
