Worlds 2024 Men FS: ‘Putting the Eh? in Standing Ovation’

[flyingsit]

Camden’s program seems extra long today.

 

[Jay42]

I do love Camden's shirt.

It's a very nice shirt

It's so startling to see Camden's tech score in the score box onscreen just above Adam Siao Him Fa's tech score.

ETA: Maybe the right word is "disconcerting" rather than "startling," since I can't really say I'm startled.

 

[Rukia]

that was a performance that happened

 

[Colonel Green]

What’s not to love about a men’s free program with three 3-2 combinations?

 

[Matryeshka]

I opened up a bottle of wine just for Camden. I'll bet Tonia did too.

 

[peibeck]

Pulkinen really lacking attack and energy in the first part of this. Step sequence was lackluster. A bit more energy at the end but way too late by then. Sigh.

What a shame. We'll always have Montepellier.

141.01 = 4th Place
219.86 = 3rd Place

 

[Spikefan]

I need Vincent to come out with an Alysa announcement. He was just hitting his stride.

 

[slicekw]

Camden knows full well that if he can’t get that quad consistent, he’ll always be behind Jason Brown and always in the “could have” skater group.

 

[Karen-W]

I'm just sitting here praying that Lucas Broussard comes out to start the new season with a good 3A and quad in his arsenal at last.

 

[Sarah]

This was not great, but far better than Past Camden could have done after an initial fall so that’s something?

 

[ChelleC]

Camden gonna Camden.

::sigh::

 

[TAHbKA]

Just so you guys understand how far up Adam is going to climb, the skaters in 10th place (Miura) would need 200 points in the LP to stay ahead of him. The skater in 8th needs around 195. The skaters in 4th, 5th, and 6th need like 190.

The medal race is totally there for him, too.

I don't see either Malinin or Uno or Kagiyama having an epic meltdown for Siao Him Fa. IMHO the medal race wasn't there for him at the first place. He is 16 points behind Brown after the SP, so the 4th place is quite possible, but then it was possible to begin with.

 

[Karen-W]

We'll always have Montpellier 2022, folks.

Adam now: catch me if you can

you do that and i'll pray for torgy's mind and body to stabilize and we'll meet in the middle lol

It would take a big meltdown, but it's Worlds, they are all skating back to back to back, and you never know

 

[Wyliefan]

@skatingguy I really appreciate your putting the music in the skater bios, because half the time my mind is wandering or I'm multitasking and I don't see it on the screen.

 

[tony]

I wish Gabriele would cut his hair. It's as messy as his jump technique. This program is just considering how he plows around the ice.

 

[TAHbKA]

Grrr, the Italians don't want to bring 3 spots

 

[Karen-W]

You just need to shut yo' mouth! You've been entirely too prophetic at different points of this competition for you to even be putting that into the atmosphere.

 

[Citlali]

Frangipani trying to prove he the italianest italian who ever italianed with this music, sorry Gabriele but Sara and Niccolo already won that competition

 

[tony]

Grrr, the Italians don't want to bring 3 spots

They weren't going to get them anyways

 

[Lizziebeth]

Tonia giggling about his euler technique

 

[tony]

That Lutz+Sal sequence shouldn't be anywhere near the positives in GOE.

His jumps are just so hideous.

 

[Rukia]

everything is just a little off in this skate hair costume jumps

 

[Debbie S]

I feel like if Adam got 206 with 4 quads and a 2-pt deduction, if the top 3 are even close to clean, we could see some insanely high scores by the end of the evening.
