Men's Long Program

[sillylionlove]

Go johnny....the suspense is really killing me here.

 

[riverflows]

He was clean!! Not his best skate, but there was no interrupting error.

 

[Dodhiyel]

Johnny.

 

[Ximena]

Here goes

Johnny

4t (slightly two footed)
3ax
3z
The cameraman should be shot!
3ax-2t
3s
3turns into 3l
3z-2t
3f

Sorry too nervous, only could do jumps and maybe some of them were off
The thing is that besides his 3s (maybe it was a 3t) and his 3f, none of his jumps were clean, I mean all landed and I think no deductions but I don't think he'll het any GOE+ because of the landings

Well done Mr Weir !!!!
Regardless of how he finishes with placements, he can feel proud of this....

 

[Hikaru]

Yay Johnny!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Kypma]

see those scores for PCS? I feel so sorry for Tomas, but if he had such a bad skate, how does he get 69 for PCS, and technical 43? I feel there has to be some balance on both scores given the performance, but I dunno...

Actually, the highest PCS scores up to now... I think it might be the judges trying to find points to give him because they feel sorry for him... I know it's not exactly right to give him a few extra points but we're al human...

See, I'd usually say that too, but Tomas really performed the program even with the mistakes, so I think it's justified. This is an example of COP working for me - if it was always like this Yukina Ota would get the highest PCS of any ladies' skater.

Hmmm, nice one. But it didn't really convince me, to be honest...

Johnny: Very good skate, but not great. 2fotted quad, no 3-3, 1st 3axel looked really cheated, the loop might also be downgraded, no 3-jump combo, but he fought and went for everything. What an improvement from last season!

 

[Dodhiyel]

I think I'm breathing again. Thank you, Johnny.

 

[Ximena]

So sweet. he smiled right to the camera while leaving the ice rink (the camera was on his face). Galina and Petrenko looked ok, happy to see him clapping.
From the slow mo, he may may get some UR.
He looks relief

 

[Ximena]

3rd in the Fs, 1st overall

 

[mizu_iro]

141.05 in the free and 221.84 overall gives him 1st...but his FS was only 3rd behind Van Der Perren and Voronov. Certainly beatable but Joubert and Buttle are question marks...

 

[SailorGalaxia518]

Scores don't look that high for Weir

 

[TCTC84]

Come on Takahashi!!!!

 

[lmarie086]

3rd in the Fs, 1st overall

3rd?! Who finished ahead of him?

Ah I see, nevermind

 

[gourry]

Ok, four more!! This is great.
By the way, I'm kind of surprised at Verner's PCS. Very high.... Wow.

 

[SailorGalaxia518]

Takahashi is next....will he win????????

 

[Dodhiyel]

Now I'm worried for Daisuke.
