2025 European Championships Men's Free Skate

There was not enough cracker in that Nutcracker.

Yep. It was all nuts.

Litvintsev's program is a quintessence of bad taste

 

[Arigato]

Did I hear a boo?

 

[Seven Sisters]

Litvintsev's program is a quintessence of bad taste

He’s fun, though. I saw him do that strange Tiger King/Lion King mashup program live, and he had the audience eating out of his hand.

Somehow when Satie composed his Gnossiennes I don't think he imaged an Italian man in a women's size 00 T-shirt telegraphing underrated jumps, but that's why skating is so culturally complex.

All Daniel's jumps will be rewatched says our commentator.

Started watching from Hagara. First time seeing him. He's lovely.
Deniss was OK. Good for him for doing the 4S but some other jumps were messy.
Litvintsev was not good all around.
Grassl - I love Billy Elliot, so I don't mind this program. Some glorious 4S jumps here - edit, oops nevermind that was the 4Lz. Yikes, just fell on the 3Lz. :/

 

[elektra blue]

not the skate for a medal, but i love my baby no matter what and i'll always be proud of him

 

[GGFan]

Not a fan of the voice overs in this program and the music is kind of all over the place. However, he seems to really enjoy the soundtrack and that helps his performance ultimately. The caller will decide.

With Shin Amano, it was inevitable

 

[jgg220]

Smoke is now coming out of Shin Amano's computer.

 

[brblja]

Now I'm really bitter and angry about Kornel's PCS

Yes!! 4 points lower than Litvintsev was a travesty.

 

[cocteautwin]

Shin Amano little show now

 

[Andrina]

Commentator: he worked so hard on his presentation!

Grassl: crawls from one jump to another, improperly imitiating random ballet movements on a weirdly cut music (Swan Lake with sounds of broken glass and other stuff)

 

[EdgeCall]

Someone reanimate Elektra please.

 

[Jeanie19]

Daniel. Good program. Really good skate.

 

[TT_Fin]

I was disturbed for a while so I could not type it, so I am bit late to tell what our commentator said, but Litvintsev's last spin did not get points at all and he already was that opinion before seeing the scores.

 

[brblja]

I’m sitting right across the tech table and Shin Amano is legit bringing his face right next to the monitor to scrutinise this.

Bless the tech panel as watching them the first time was more than painful enough for me.

Still I think Daniel is better staying in the impressionism domain, ballet and broken glass is not his thing, and comedy is not his employ. I can see the concept, but I am not sure anyone could make it work.
