Evan's 1st combo wasn't clean on the landing.

 

[1795]

he is back!

 

[museksk8r]

YES, YES, YES!!! GO, STEPHANE, GOOOOOOOOO!!!!! WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

(I'm just a little excited!)

 

[SailorGalaxia518]

he is back!

Let's hope so, I have been feeling bad for Stephane since the beginning of the season:thumbsup:

 

[beep_beep]

so far 3 guys
3 guys in black, and 3 successful quads (alright, Lysacek's had problems)

seems like a good start

I think it's a PB for Lambiel.

 

[feraina]

Stephane Lambiel -- I think it was a 4-2 (not sure though), 3A, 3Lz. Lots of flair. Lots of interesting upper-body movements, decorative transitions in between elements. Amazingly fast and centered spins, of course. A great skate for him, he looks very happy. And SB score for him, well deserved!

Evan Lysacek: quad-turn-triple. 3A not much height, holds on to the landing. Good 3Lz. Good slss -- amazingly fast twizzles (been practicing with Tanith? ). circular ss slow and slowly off-balance. First sit spin quite fast. combination spin not so great. Last camel spin good.

 

[Hsuhs]

Chan's 3f-3t, mistakes on both landings (over rotated a bit)

 

[feraina]

Not a great score for Evan, considering the jump content. Maybe UR on the 3A?

 

[netnuts]

I have a feeling Johnny Weir will bomb...

 

[life684]

chan is artistically best and his skating is most pleasing to watch, but technically today...

 

[SailorGalaxia518]

I have a feeling Johnny Weir will bomb...

Don't say that

 

[Dodhiyel]

This is an incredibly exciting contest; I am very curious to see how Patrick will do.

 

[Hsuhs]

Go Johnny!:agree:

They just showed a shot of Caroline's sister and mom in the audience -- they were really surprised to spot themselves on the big screen.

 

[Dodhiyel]

Ah! Well, Patrick is young yet. He will up his technical in the coming years, I'm sure.

 

[beep_beep]

oh, johnny...
