Oda did 3L+3t and then crashed in the boards. ;_;

Nobunari:

I think he may have done a 2axel instead of a 3, I could be wrong but he crashed to the walls on his combo jump ;_;

it was a triple, a nice one, at that

Assuming the message PJ received is true, I have to say that the Azerbaijani organization is unbelievably incompetent. :banging:



Poor Fedor, he seems to be cursed whatever he does; he doesn't get named to the World team regardless of which country he represents.

Seriously, though, the guy must be mad as hell if this was indeed the only thing which kept him from competing at Worlds. How can we be certain the Azerbaijani federation won't screw him over again in the future? I believe Andreev was their only men's singles skater this season (Danil Privalov didn't appear in any comps throughout 2008/2009), so how could they "forget" him like that?

Ugh, I wouldn't be surprised if he retired after all of this mess...

SIBERIA-DO NOT SAY THAT!!!! I REPEAT DO NOT SAY THAT OR GO THERE: We have to stay positive and optimistic, he will represent AZE next season, and that this was a minor (STUPID) accident considering that other Men's skaters have represented their country in the past without a problem. EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE JUST FINE!!!!!! I HAVE A PLAN!!!!!

Oda did 3L+3t and then crashed in the boards. ;_;

Yes, it looked like his free leg hit the boards which caused him to fall. Wonder how that will be counted.....

Kind of like the fall Midori had in the SP in 1991....

 

[Alicja]

Sad for Oda. but he takes it classy Happy birthday, anyways! Belated birthday present will be a great FS!!

 

[Dipyramidal]

Yes, it looked like his free leg hit the boards which caused him to fall. Wonder how that will be counted.....

I hope he doesn't get -1.00 ;_;.

[Medusa]

I liked Nobu, the step sequences were amazing - much more confidence than at NHK. Freak accident...

[Hikaru]

Yes, now on the replay I see it ws clearly a triple, good for him, he was happy despite the fall. And into second place!

 

[Kissx3]

I feel so horrible for him concerning that bad fall, he was amazing otherwise.

 

[Alicja]

Evan's hitting all the stuff....

 

[TCAngel18]

[Hsuhs]

I think Evan doesn't need gloves.
He landed all his jumps!

 

[Wrlmy]

YAY Evan!!!! He's here to win!!! The first one to break 80?

 

[hrmsk8ngnutt]

Evan's skating magnificently - I still hate the costume....

He's very happy with that skate!!!! Let's see if he goes into 1st.
