2025 JGP Riga Cup Men's Short Program

I’m so tired after the gym I barely managed to brush my teeth but I did lie on the couch and watch this. Why did US men have one competitor and 8 or 9 substitutes?
 
I do rather love Yanhao (and I am so hoping that if he goes on to senior success we might get a haka from fans at competitions because that would be awesome) but what on earth was he wearing???

It's the JGP strategy for most countries. They enter everyone anyways because depending on who does well or even which competitors are lined up, Feds have the opportunity to switch around skaters, as long as they are listed as subs.

Interesting thanks. I had no idea.

The spots belong to the country and not the skaters... And they are allowed to name whoever they want... Some countries will remove spots from skaters for instance, because they haven't performed well enough to qualify for JGPF and give them to other skaters.

So different from Séniors. Thank you for the explanation.
