Final Cup of Russia

Well at least he made the pop look good but...everyone doesn't want to go to World's...

Step sequence Level 4! Well deserved

Alright Yagudin, if I hear you said something nasty about Dima, it's IS ON

 

[katymay]

No Worlds this year I'm guessing.

 

[EdgeCall]

I was rooting for you. We were all rooting for you

I don't understand the psychological aspect of popped jumps. They have to know it's gonna get them zero points, but they still opted for it instead of "taking the fall" on a maybe rotated one.

I am afraid to breath now... gosh, gosh, gosh...

Poor Aliev

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Do you think they would actually send Semenenko to Worlds if he won this thing?

 

[Jontor]

Go Mozalev! Now you have the chance!

Petition for Dima to keep this SP his whole career, it's stunning and I never tire of watching it.

Although he may not like it anymore

Andrei M is also a fashion icon in this costume.

Self-preservation. Wanting to crash to the ice and fall actually goes against your instincts.

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Go Andrei!!!!!!!!!

That's what they said.

 

[lariko]

Honestly, I am happy that Mozalev parked 4F for now. Such a gorgeous program otherwise...

 

[Jontor]

Costly with just a 3F. But clean and best so far. Mozalev is still in this...

 

[Jeanie19]

Mozalev great short program.

I think sometimes your leg just literally pops and you can't stop it?

Kind of like when you put your arm in the wrong position reaching for something and you reflexly need to change position, it happens without you thinking about it. (Except for "OUCH!")

That was lit from Andrei M! A new leader possibly?

 

[Baron Vladimir]

3F instead of trying 4F this time. But clean! And that StSq is great

 

[Novalis]

Nice job Andrei. 90+

 

[EdgeCall]

Reasonably good skate from Mozalev. If he just had not popped the 4F.
