Holy crap, 93!!! I don't know if Takahashi can even beat that.

Ha, smashes Plush's record.

This was ag good as it gets, Bravo Patrick

Patrick Chan

Very solid 4T+3T. Equally solid 3A. Great flow out of the 3F. Held positions on the spins are strong. What can I say? Perfect performance! His edges were extremely secure and he is bright and expressive where he needs to be AND he had a quad-triple. This should score ridiculously in the high mid to high 80s. (Wow, Tatiana is lookin' good.)

SP: 93.02 (never mind, low 90s.... geez... even the announcer stuttered a bit... ninety?.... what the f.... nine....ty.....)

[Oreo]

Ok, very good - this will be near impossible to beat. Is it enough for a record score?

Score: 93.02 and into 1st - new world record! (Can we declare him World Champion yet?)

93.02 points!

Not Patrick fan but I wanted to see what he would get if he were clean with a quad in the short and long internationally.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

His PCS was higher in the GPF, fwiw, but he likely got level fours AND great GOEs.

 

[aemeraldrainc]

Wow. Good for Patrick!
I missed his face when the scores were given. Darn computer froze!

Go Taka!

 

[herios]

Taka has to show some guts now, to follow this one, oh, he goes up on a lean on his 3axel and puts his hands down.

 

[Germanice]

Not much audience reaction from the crowd for Chan ...

 

[skatingfan04]

I really hope Chan can have a killer SP...I really think he's the best this year.

 

[Mrs. P]

Major step out on the 3A, but he's showing some sass today. Probably won't be anywhere near Patrick's score.

 

[JeffyJosephNCA]

Talk about a weird musical transition from Take Five to, Funky Town Soul Music lol

 

[blue_idealist]

I liked Kozuka. He showed a lot of personality today. It's too bad about the 3A though.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Not much audience reaction from the crowd for Chan ...

Yeah, I noticed that. Solid applause afterwards, but not much during.

He just set an SP world record score. You mean LP, right?
