2026 Four Continents Championships Men's Short Program

[RatedPG]

@saine He got the minimum TES score

The zero TES score on the screen for one of his spins confused me

Wesley CHIU (CAN) wearing an orangey-red top and black trousers.

Skating to "How It Ends" by DeVotchKa. Didn't know it, but it works well for skating.

I enjoyed it.

He goes into 4th position.

I think that was an input issue, it wasn't put in as a flying sit spin and it would've been invalid as just a sit spin.

 

[saine]

It's okay Yu-Hsiang, get the pop out here instead of the Olympics.

 

[lileychristie]

Ah Yu-Hsiang, that popped axel.... Everything else was great though!!

 

[lileychristie]

GOOOO DONOVAN!!!!

LI Yu-Hsiang (TPE) wearing a jumpsuit where the top half is dark blue with a light blue pattern, and the bottom half is black.

I loved the music! "This Is War" by Matthew Raetzel.

He was certainly going for it.

Pity about the invalid element.

And from the sounds of Chris afterwards, there were lots of other issues too.

The poor fella is absolutely gutted waiting for his scores.

He goes into 7th position. So, at least he'll get another chance tomorrow.

Donovan, you marvelous creature...

 

[aussie_SKATES]

Urgh. Waxel for Donovan. Too bad. This program rocks.

 

[moonvine]

Oh no Donovan…

 

[aussie_SKATES]

Good for Don-Don. Keeps up the performance and that closing spin to finish was killer.

 

[saine]

Axels are fake.

 

[lileychristie]

Axel Paulsen, I command thee to go back to your grave right now!!!

 

[moonvine]

I’m tired and craving sleep.

 

[TT_Fin]

Does Donovan have even too much speed? Sometimes looses control because of it?

 

[lileychristie]

Nice save on the 3Lz though, stsq 4 and great A spin to finish

 

[auser]

Good 4S3T st start from Donovan and exhilarating level 4 stsq. He is such a charismatic performer.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Donovan CARRILLO (MEX) wearing a jumpsuit whee the top half is purple with black and gold pattern, and the bottom half is black.

Skating to "Hip Hip, Chin Chin". I've never been a fan of that song.

But, Donovan was really going for it. (As he always does!)

Perhaps a bit too much at times, because it led to mistakes.

He goes into 4th position.

He's happy.

Urgh....Some negative GOE for Aleksa. I'm thinking he's get around 67 / 68.

He and Liam Kapeikis could pass for brothers.

 

[Arriba627]

Darn. Combo clean as a whistle only to mess up the axel which is usually pretty good for him. Still a good skate, especially doing a great quad. Get the nerves out now and kill it at the Olys!!!
