Something happened we didn't get to see because audience screamed very loudly!

 

[Hsuhs]

Go Sasha!

 

[Snowgirl]

Gee, yes, he's miles away.

Who?
Considered nerves and pressure, Voronov is :agree:

 

[Hsuhs]

Sasha should go seek another coach, IMO.

117.64 (6th on the FS)

In general I don't see Voronov is THAT far away from Lutai but he is overall better but I think the marks were a little too much, but YAY Voronov and Lutai!!!

 

[Hsuhs]

Congrets to Sergei, new Russian champ!

 

[Ximena]

Good bye everybody, this was fun.

[Morgane]

Interview with Piseev: he is saying Doronina and Petushkova will go to Euros

 

[life684]

Both Voronov and lutai did not try 3 Flip ot Lutz. But both had quad jump and 3 Axel, interesting. I know Vornov cant do Lutz or Flip due to his injury but don't know why Lutai is not trying them.

 

[IceCrystal]

Sasha should go seek another coach, IMO.

ITA!
IMHO he should've never left Dubinskaya

Lutai did a 3Lutz and popped his 3Flip to a double.

 

[life684]

Sorry my mistake, Thank You IceCrystal.

 

[Kasey]

Congrats to all three men's medalists, and the number of men trying quads! That is a good sign for the future hopefully.

 

[Ximena]

I guess when you have a two point bonus for a quad, you'll do it no matter what but Voronov and Lutai's quad were gorgeous!!!

I guess Voronov is still taking care of his foot which is why he didn't try a lutz or a flip, imagine the kind of score he could get with those.

Still happy for Lutai!

Did Pissiev said if Voronov and Lutai are going to Euros?

 

[piano4112000]

They showed a bit from the MMMT interview.
Sore losers, together with their coach Vasiliev.

What was said, I'm curious.

I just saw Kawaguchi and Smirnov's program and the part where she dislocated her shoulder was kind of scary because I would not have skated on. She had guts but after that they skated quite well. Congrats to them.
