MEN - Short Program

[Nadine]

2nd place and he gets a HUGE applause from the crowd, well deserved!

 

[Violet Bliss]

His season best is .01 over Kam's score tonight. But alas, fell short this time.

 

[Nadine]

Nice program from Jordan Ju of TPE, only fell on the 3L, but managed to save his 3/3 combo., skated to some jazzy music.

Thank you so much Nadine and Spun Silver for the updates!
Following through my cell phone and this is the only way to know what's going on. Very much appreciated.

Nice job from Kevin Alves of BRA, just one fall on a jump, and I loved his blinding fast scratch spin to end it with. ;cool:

You can get a lot more detail from Ice Musings! I feel sorry for anyone who's depending on me! Good luck getting to a screen before the last group! http://icemusings.blogspot.com/2012/02/four-continents-mens-short-program.html

Kevin Alves is a Canadian.

I love this young man Luiz Manella from BRA, he skated to Patrick Chan's "Take Five"...

I believe it was Lu Chen's Take Five that he skated to.

Kim of KOR opened with a FAB 3A, but then fell on his 3R and doubled his 3F, but I like his Sasha I-Spin, as well as his ending donut spin, and he started out skating fast imho.

ps: I swear I have ESP, lol, when he came out I said "Pirates of the Caribbean" and I was right, which wasn't much b/c of the costume. giveaway.

 

[Nadine]

Re-surfacing of ice, then group 3 will come out for their warmup, time for break.

 

[Violet Bliss]

The next should be substantially better. Ten is quite artistic and Ge is a real showman. Guan was 6th at 4CC last year.

Anyone pick up on Jordan Ju's music, it was used as the theme song for the old TV show, Perry Mason. His costume was quite interesting with the gun and holster under his arm.

 

[Nadine]

Lol I recognize the following: Misha Ge (he's half Russian & half Chinese IIRC), then Jeremy Ten with his Elvis ducktail , but who's the cute guy that resembled a bit of Fedor Andreev?

 

[Nadine]

Okay the just showed him & introduced him, his name is Brendan Kerry of AUS.

 

[Violet Bliss]

Go Jeremy go!

 

[Nadine]

Caluza of the Phillipines is skating, makes me wonder if that girl from the USA (who also is going to represent them) will be here, she used to do a 3A?

 

[Nadine]

Here we go!!!

Oh yeah, thanks for that link. I follow through there as well.
Getting to a screen is not gonna happen(no Internet access) but thanks.
What would I do w/o GoldenSkate and all the nice posters here?

Melissa Bulanhagui? I know she's not competing here, but I don't know why. Perhaps she hasn't been released by USFSA yet to compete for another country?

 

[Violet Bliss]

Caluza is from the US also. Yes Melissa Bulanhagui is there. But not competing.
