Great skate from Gogo. What a season he is having! Well done. Even with scary laces.

 

[pesto]

I couldn't watch anything apart from the laces!

Great skate by Gogolev, but these camera angles afterward are giving me vertigo. I appreciate if the camera people want me to experience the dizziness associated with quads and spins, but I shall be sending them my medical bills and a stern note from my team of physicians requesting compete remuneration.

 

[brens78]

I hope he stays in fine form as he’ll be great to watch til the next Olympics

 

[snowflake]

94.38

YESSSS SB and PB for Stephen!! Glad the lace didn't mess him up!

 

[Karoltyna]

Makes you wonder if he truly didn’t feel his laces coming loose?
Also—hasn’t this happened before?

yup, I saw it happening to him at least once this season...

 

[4everchan]

he deserved a 1-2 more points in PCS... for real

 

[YuBluByMe]

Gogolev’s been great all season. Another clean performance! I think this is the best SP he’s ever had. I also think this was his best performance of the SP, even better than the Olympics.

I couldn't watch anything apart from the laces!

Shades of Savchenko and Szolkowy with their Pina Bausch program. I think it was the Grand Prix Final.

The Olys wasn't a fluke! Gogo is like a new skater! Good.for.him. 94.38. Well deserved. Congrats. (Heart attack over his lace!)

 

[elektra blue]

94.38 is a great score and totally deserved!

 

[Mista Ekko]

Damn, what a pop

And he was competing so well...

 

[4everchan]

oh gosh,. it's too early for me for this music it brings joy and pain at the same time

 

[lileychristie]

Tamir, spectacular quads and even more spectacular pop

 

[Jeanie19]

Tamir. Nice outfit and program. Great quads and a good skate.

 

[Ares]

No axel for Kuperman, just a single. And his camel spin was messy, no -GOE is generous from the judges here.

 

[DizzyFrenchie]

no, Gordon, when you mock somebody else's accent it's racism. simple as that. what would you think of someone making the chinese accent with L insted of R? it's the same thing

In my family there are many accents and when we were kids/teens (and even occasionally after) we would imitate reciprocally. I think that I've also imitated other accents. Not to denigrate the people! And there was more self-derision than anything. Humour can take many forms before really lacking respect. These TV hosts who pretend to pronounce names in the "original" way but fail, in my opinion, either try sincerely to be kind to people of these countries, or are snobbish and pose as educated people (and, I confess, make themselves laughing stock). Not everybody have historical or people prejudices against Italy and the Italian, actually I believe that few have! I chose my pseudonym without believing that it would give a smile to many people, we are so many people on Earth, with so diverse cultures even in a given country.
Sorry for the digression.

 

[Mista Ekko]

Wow, with a good Axel in there he could've been at like 85-86

 

[Seven Sisters]

Don’t cry kid, you did great!!
