Ege. Nice outfit and program. Decent skate and the home crowd is so supportive.

 

[labgoat]

saldy also a mess

unfortunately so - too many mistakes but a likeable mess

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Is he related to Yelizaveta Babenko who represents UKR in ladies singles?

I don't know, but it is quite possible.

They are both originally from same city, and they both now belong to the same club, Leader, in the capital.

And in my opinion, they do look like each other.

I'm leaning towards "yes". But, I may be completely wrong.

[elektra blue]

judging by his coaches Raoul trains in Italy

 

[crystalspin]

That's because Mark's commentating from home.

Ted, meanwhile, is on site. And we know how tiring the travelling and everything associated with it can be.

CaroLiza_fan

Oh, that makes more sense why they sometimes talk over each other. Ted has had a busy 2 weeks then!

 

[labgoat]

Raul skating to hope while in black practice wear?

 

[Karoltyna]

Eh, his luggage got lost?

 

[labgoat]

Sad boi music has reached Andora

[EdgeCall]

Sad boi music has reached Andora

You call this "music"?

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Sad boi music has reached Andora

Unfortunately, so has rapping.

You call this "music"?

Aha! Somebody after my own heart!

CaroLiza_fan

 

[labgoat]

He has a sense of style and it matches his music - unfortunately a lot of red on the scores

 

[Jeanie19]

Raul. Nice program. A few mistakes, but he never gave up.

 

[crystalspin]

Jumps were not happening for Raul today. He is going for harder content and will have growing struggles with that. Good for him and hope he can have a better freeskate.

 

[labgoat]

You call this "music"?

not really - more rap-like.
Not my genre, took me a moment to realize what it was. More Ilia-like.

 

[labgoat]

Unfortunately, so has rapping.



Aha! Somebody after my own heart!

CaroLiza_fan

yup!

 

[labgoat]

Lucius Kazanecki skates to Interstellar and takes from Ilia's parents

 

[elektra blue]

Lucius is so nice to watch, great performance
