2024 World Championships Men's Free Skate

[Weetos]

That tech score is insane

I have no emotional connection to his skating but you can't do anything about that

 

[RatedPG]

Wow!! Ilia is a superstar!!
Wow!! This is the best free skate of all time
4A!! His combos all in the second half…
222 is the winning score for ladies, pairs and dance…. Will Ilia win with a free skate score of 222?
Amazing!! Gold medal

Edit: 333 total
Looks like 222 and 333 are the target scores

 

[Rikku]

This qualifies as the most WTF (in a good way!) men's free ever!

 

[GGFan]

Y'all a 4A and 2 4Lz??? I still can't believe what I just saw. Hitting two 3As was a big deal just a couple decades ago.

 

[cheerknithanson]

I'm definitely not going to be able to sleep tonight.

 

[lady_bee]

Jaw dripping is very appropriate to describe Ilia. Is he a human?

 

[Jammers]

What did we just see?

 

[invisiblespiral]

It is also insane that Ilia's 4a has just turned into a very normal part of his program layout.

Ilia just won the World title. He just walked though the door. He is in driver's seat on path to the gold medal in 2026.

 

[Ares]

Ilia's mum. She had a gorgeous lutz too (but ''only'' a triple one)

 

[LolaSkatesInJapan]

Hmmmm.... after watching the winner's performance, beside congratulating him, of course, I think the Japanese men really need to evolve their game to stay in business, especially jump wise.

 

[GGFan]

Y'all I'm a huge Nathan Chen fan and I think Ilia and Yuma just made the 5% chance he was coming back go down to zero! Mercy me.

Figure skating is dead, but ice jumping has come to full bloom.

Yes, I'm bitter. It was brilliant jumpwise, but Yuma is a brilliant complete figure skater and watching Ilia's step sequence after his is painful.

 

[FlossieH]

World record. That is quite an ending to the competition.

 

[adhara]

So tough for Ilia to win

mhmmm

 

[cheerknithanson]

Wow. Holy moly. I'mmmmmmm YSAYAYAYAAYYYYY

 

[auser]

So cute Ilia's dad still shaking his head in K&C. Congrats team Ilia on new world record!

 

[Ares]

227.79 (333.76) He just beat his previous PB in FS by 20 points.

 

[Mozartistique]

I'm still skating at home, how are the people in the arena ?
