Mens - Long Program

[kiz_4Ever]

But if you compare him to the top skaters in the world he is nowhere near them now. Very far behind!

I didn't even try to compare him with others. I just think that today he delivered a very good program and I liked it, after the problems in the last year it was nice to see him skate like that. I just liked a lot him today!

Really looking forward to seeing a different kind of program from Fernandez.

Peter is running out of steam...

Javier was amazing. His points were lower than I expected.

Fernandez is always undermarked.

All of the guys seem to be running out of steam tonight...are they at a high altitude?

I don't know anything about Bern's altitude, but the arena is freakin' cold. (There's no heating system.)

If Javier's quad (which was perfect in super slo mo) was downgraded but Joubert's underrotated one was upheld, I'm going to cut somebody.

Or it could just be Javier's flutzing that cost him in the tech marks.

All feeds have copped out on me by this point. It may be due to a large volume of users. Thanks for the descriptions.

Allez Alban!!!

All feeds have copped out on me by this point.

The British Eurosport stream died on me a few times, but I closed the page and opened it again, and the feed worked.

Javier has a strange picking technique in his flip and lutz. it looks like he puts his pick in and then take
s off a full blade.

 

[siberia82]

I really don't like Alban's LP. I don't think this music suits him at all. :disapp:

 

[Lily.Grace]

Joubert's way overscored, as usual
Have you guys seen his PCS???? RIDICULOUS!!

Very generous marks for Joubert. Nearly 10 pts ahead of Menshov who had two quads. He will probably make the podium being gifted like that.
Didn't think the music suited his still at all. Very poor day for Berntsson, is there only swedish place for worlds?

Oh yes - that could do it. There also seems to be a lot of spin errors tonight.

What are necessary placements to obtain 3 spots for Euros next year?

 

[aemeraldrainc]

I just think Alban is so cute. Not in a handsome, hot way, but he just seems so nice and sweet.

Why on earth would they even consider holding an event like this is an unheated arena??

no comment, but I've heard that during pairs it was like -5 Celsius!
It's one of the largest hockey arena, also new I think...but crazy for figure skating!
