Li has nice costume, as some of you may have noticed I always like when there is something more than just black pants.

LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE

This lady misspelling all the names ugh. Sorry Daniel Weiss, i complained too much.

Neither of them, Weiss or Bindl (ZDF lady) can pronounce the word Pirouette right. It's always "Pürette" and, I don't even know why but, it ticks me off.

 

[TontoK]

Go Li! Go Taiwan!

The IOC may buy into that nonsense that you can't even name your own country, but I don't have to.

Very happy for him if he goes clean!!!

 

[CoyoteChris]

She is a nice commentator .

My first Belinda since Neil Diamond

 

[Pairluv]

On a good note, not wet stains on Kao's bottom so far

A worthy goal for a program.

 

[Seven Sisters]

OK lads, I’m ready to be dazzled.

I’m having a ham & cheese from the French bakery in honor of Kevin & Adam.

And Andrew, who’s a bit of a ham as well

 

[freedomlover]

What I will give Raf is that all his skaters have very good lutz tech, for the most part.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Clean skate to begin, please let this be a good omen

 

[freedomlover]

He's smiling like no one else ahhhh- nice final spin too!

 

[Jontor]

Yu-Hsiang Li really pushing the tech. A 4T!! Well done!

Thanks, there's an ice pack on my neck, a warm cup of chai tea, and I am esconced in blankets and Kao Miura banners.

I read that as "there's an ice pick on my neck".

In all seriousness, all the best with your recovery.

well that was great for him, he certainly made himself proud with this performance and look how elated he is!

 

[EdgeCall]

Good start!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

I'm so, so, so happy for Yu-Hsiang!!!!! He already did so well to qualify for the Olympics and has now skated the two programs of his life, going clean twice on Olympic ice! He seems so thrilled to be here in every moment and has such nice qualities to his skating. A few of the jumps were under but this was a dream debut for him, and I can't wait to see what he offers at Junior Worlds and beyond.

 

[Karoltyna]

bravo

 

[TT_Fin]

Well he proved us he belongs to be here, didn't he? Quite high TES and just the first skater.

 

[brens78]

A nice clean start with no falls, hopefully this can set the tone for the rest of the event

 

[Sabsi]

What a great start into the event, congrats Yu-Hsiang!!
I really love his charisma and his expression
