The ISU stream is live

 

[Rukia]

This is a banger and potentially heartbreaking mens lineup

 

[Private Citizen]

I’ve never seen someone jump in a baggy hoodie before (Economides). This costume does not seem aerodynamic at all.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Economides with his Yeezy hoodie Too bad Kanye is the worst now.

Looking for a bit a parachute effect, perhaps?

le May, Landry
Coach: Yoann Deslot
Music: Bloodstream by Tokio Myers

 

[Karen-W]

Lmao @ Mark calling out the piss-poor performances by the entire men's field at SCI last week.

 

[Holy Headband]

Landry le May's musketeer goatee is killing me.

 

[Rukia]

the bang into the boards right with bang in the music was so iconique

 

[Private Citizen]

Le May is like a French Jimmy Ma.

 

[Sally1214]

Back for the men's sp with my HUGE mug of chicken broth. I'm on day #5 of the endless cold from hell with continual barking/coughing and they just don't make enough tissues to keep up with me. Sooooo, today I'm trying the "drink plenty of clear fluids" advice (nothing alcoholic or caffeinated). I'll let y'all know tomorrow if THAT piece of advice helps ....

le May, Landry
Coach: Yoann Deslot
Music: Bloodstream by Tokio Myers

3A
4T - fall
Fly Camel Spin 4
Ch Combo Spin 4
3Lz+2T
Ch Sit Spin 4
Step Sequence 3

If men going to men, then French men are definitely going to French men. Hard fall on the quadruple toe, and hitting your back square against the boards can't have felt good.

71.20 = 1st Place

 

[Primorskaya]

Damn it's started already!
Le May looks like one of the Three Musketeers wandered onto the ice.

 

[skatingguy]

Kataise, Takeru Amine
Coach: Mamiko Yamai
Music: Adios Nonino by Astor Piazolla

 

[quartz]

What are the cute stuffies in the KnC called?

I was late getting back too. Looked at the wrong schedule, I guess.

 

[Rukia]

generic program but it was clean-ish so I guess that's something

 

[skatingguy]

Kataise, Takeru Amine Japan
Coach: Mamiko Yamai
Music: Adios Nonino by Astor Piazolla

3A
3Lz+3T
Ch Camel Spin 2
3F! - slow to get the free leg through creating a hitch in the landing
Step Sequence 4
Fly Sit Spin 4
Ch Combo Spin 3

Nice skate. Quality skating that we expect from the Japanese skaters, but not the technical difficulty, or the program to stand out in a crowded Japanese field.

76.27 = 1st Place

 

[airgelaal]

My neighbor decided that now is the best time to use a hammer drill

 

[Sally1214]

Pretty decent skate for Kataise. Sweet smile at the end. Cute kid.

 

[skatingguy]

Economides, Luc
Coach: Florent Amodio
Music: Selah by Kanye West

 

[Primorskaya]

I was late getting back too. Looked at the wrong schedule, I guess.

I'm such a space cadet today, literally feeling myself getting ill...
@Sally1214 , I'm interested in your cold remedies update!

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Sitting next to a Georgian guy who is very passionately objecting Russian skating for Georgia.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Luc redefines airodynamics, must be something to do with the holes in his hoodie.

 

[airgelaal]

I can't hear the music, but I hope it matches the costume?

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Say what you want about the music choice of Economides, but in 10 years time it's going to be the theme of the rhythm dance.

 

[Rukia]

Putting my personal feelings for Kanye aside, I think this was a good program for Economides. He put everything he had into it, and it actually seemed to fit him. It felt like the music suited him.

 

[Private Citizen]

Economides bringing the voids

 

[tony]

I like Luc's intensity. Very on-style French skating.
