Practice Cam Chat

Update: Jackie says it was a 4lz to open for Nathan. Alex K practicing Dracula FS. Falls on 4Lo attempt. Just about lands 3a-3t.

I continue to really like this program for Alex Krasnozhon. Practicing his step sequence, falls hard on next jump, but after that gets in a 3(t?)-2lo-2lo!

Wow! Ryan Dunk was so soothing to the eyes. Where did he come from? Really impressed. I wonder how his jumps are?

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Had to take a call so missed a bit. Dinh Tran skating to Sherlock Holmes, nice fluid execution of choreography, not doing so well on the jumps.

I like Nathan's warm up clothes. Skaters should wear what makes them feel comfortable.

You probably don't mean this literally but he came from Baltimore. Grew up skating with Ting and moved to MJM after high school. I used to follow him before moving from the area.

Group B coming out! Jason Brown, Vincent Zhou, Eric Sjoberg, Jimmy Ma, Jordan Moeller and Mitchel Friess!

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Jason mainly stroking so far, probably because he's got first run through. I am so excited.

Jimmy Ma!

Also: Ryan Dunk was 2019 U.S. champion in Junior Men.

BTW, he has moved on from MJM.
He now trains at Skating Club of Boston, and his coach is listed as Suna Murray.

I didn't mean to sound critical, I personally think skaters should wear whatever makes them comfortable in warmup. Also I assume he'll have something similar enough in competition that what he's wearing now helps.

Oh I didn’t think you did! Sorry! I was thinking of the shirt his mom made him that he wore half of last year!

Jason marks his first jump omg is he gonna go for a quad omg. Oh okay, he marks his second jump too. Focusing on choreo and spins, which is fine with me!

 

[moonvine]

Oh Jason!

 

[Dogo]

Jason looking SO SHARP, oh brother...

No jumps, only choreo. But damn I enjoyed what I watched and was even more excited than watching Kolyada (which I didn't think was possible).

 

[moonvine]

Come on Jimmy.

AACK - I just found the practice cam on Peacock and missed Jason's run-through.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Did Jimmy just land a quad to start, or was that a particularly fierce triple?

I dunno but he looked damned good.

 

[ManyCairns]

I must be behind by a minute or two, because Jimmy Ma just started! Ah well, the world is weird.

It was really really good. The footwork/edges were on point with the fast paced moments that ended in "suspended stops".
