Greetings from the stadium!

Adam Hagara (17)
Coach: Vladimir Dvojnikov, Alexandra Hagarova
Music: Another Love by Tom Odell

 

[Karen-W]

Not too shabby for Hagara. Just a step-out on his solo 3.

Adam Hagara (17)
Coach: Vladimir Dvojnikov, Alexandra Hagarova
Music: Another Love by Tom Odell

3F+3T
3A - 3-turns on the landing
Ch Camel Spin 3 - struggled with centre after changing feet
3Lz
Fly Sit Spin 4
Step Sequence 3
Ch Combo Spin 3 (4 after review)

Adam is almost unrecognizable compared to Worlds last year he's grown so much, both in height, and in his skating. Real potential in his artistry in the future.

71.43 = 1st Place

Daniel Martynov (17)
Coach: Nikolai Morozov, Yevgeny Martynov
Music: Dawn of Faith by Eternal Eclipse

 

[Karen-W]

Martynov pops his 3a. the rest of his jumps were solid, though. Such a shame about the axel.

Daniel Martynov (17)
Coach: Nikolai Morozov, Yevgeny Martynov
Music: Dawn of Faith by Eternal Eclipse

1A* - invalid element
3Lz
Ch Camel Spin 4
3F!+3T
Ch Combo Spin 4
Step Sequence 4
Fly Sit Spin 4

That must be so frustrating to go out and pop the first jump. The rest of the skate was good. He's got a bit of a truck driver tendency with his upper body - needs more fluidity. His camel spin has nice stretch - needs more of that in the program.

66.23 = 2nd Place

 

[skatingguy]

Hyungyeom Kim (17)
Coach: Hyunjung Chi, Jinseo Kim
Music: Music by John Miles

 

[airgelaal]

Oh my god, I already forgot this song. Hyungyeom, why?

 

[Karen-W]

Kim - good 3a! Solid on the other jumps. This should easily lead.

3A
3F!+3Tq
Ch Camel Spin 4
3Lz
Step Sequence 4
Fly Sit Spin 4
Ch Combo Spin 4

Really great skate - solid elements - needs more performance quality.

77.01 = 1st Place

 

[swissskate]

Oh my god, I already forgot this song. Hyungyeom, why?

I must have weird taste, I kind of like this song

 

[skatingguy]

Music is his first love.

 

[npavel]

I liked that performans,

Francois Pitot (18)
Coach: Romain Ponsart, Angelique Abachkina
Music: Separate Ways Stranger Things

 

[Karen-W]

Pitot - Fall on the 3a. only a 3f+2t - disaster skate for him.

 

[skatingguy]

Francois Pitot (18)
Coach: Romain Ponsart, Angelique Abachkina
Music: Separate Ways Stranger Things

3A - landed on the heel of the blade - hard fall
3Lz - tentative landing - held on
Fly Sit Spin 3
Ch Camel Spin 4
3Fe+2T
Step Sequence 3
Ch Combo Spin 4

That was a struggle. Really tentative on the jumps, and very French technique.

64.87 = 4th Place

Juheon Lim (18)
Coach: Hyungjung Chi, Jinseo Kim
Music: Your Song (from Moulin Rouge soundtrack)

 

[airgelaal]

Moulin Rouge. You have to start with the best

 

[Karen-W]

Lim - gosh, who's excited for another Moulin Rouge program? All of his jumps were solid. Battle for 1st between our two Korean men today.

ETA - he'll be 2nd because Ted is telling us the 3a was <.

Btw, his shirt looks like a Frangi knock-off where the designer didn't have enough red fabric for half the back.

3A<
3F!+3T
Ch Camel Spin 4
Fly Sit Spin 4
3Lz
Step Sequence 4
Ch Combo Spin 4

Another solid skate for the Korean skaters.

73.72 = 2nd Place

 

[skatingguy]

Rio Nakata (15)
Coach: Makoto Nakata, Kensuke Nakaniwa
Music: God Particle, 160 Bpm

 

[Karen-W]

Nakata - not gonna lie, he's my fave of all the JGPF men's qualifiers. Fall on the 3a. good on the rest of his jumps, thougj there was a lean and fast turn out from the 3z.

 

[skatingguy]

Rio Nakata (15)
Coach: Makoto Nakata, Kensuke Nakaniwa
Music: God Particle, 160 Bpm

3A- fall - what was that take off?
3F+3T - struggled but got it done
Fly Sit Spin 4
3Lz!
Ch Combo Spin 4
Step Sequence 3
Ch Camel Spin 2 - another struggle

That was really disappointing to see. He was the favourite coming into this event, and as the youngest of the men's entries it may have been too much.

67.71 = 4th Place

 

[Gris]

Thank you for all the PBPs, @skatingguy !

 

[Holy Headband]

I love that only the host nation gets to hang their flag in the arena. That’s so China.

Other flags are hanging on the long side - then there’s a bigger flag of China on the short side.

Thank you! I was looking for them but didn’t see them. I’ll keep an eye out.
