I don't want to miss any of this but I am soooooooooo tired. will need a nap after this!

The YouTube stream is live

 

[Karen-W]

Well, folks, hold onto your hats - men are about to take the ice.

For all the Kazuki fans around here - be warned, per Xwitter and Mixed Zone reports after practices this week - he hasn't been trying any jumps the past 3 weeks due to a nagging injury. This could be very rough.

 

[Sylvia]

Let’s gooooo Torg!!

 

[Karen-W]

Elder Selevko is wearing a teal blue satin dress shirt and what appear to be cargo-style denim pants. Please mark off "costume doesn't match" because I'm sure, whatever he's skating to, it will NOT match nor make any sort of sense.

 

[swissskate]

The female speaker is soooo anoying

Except he's skating to "Why’d you lie?" and that costume is a lie!

 

[her grace]

I’m ready to watch Torgashev

 

[Primorskaya]

The female speaker is soooo anoying

She's been my pet peeve for the past...way too many years. I spend breaks between skaters dreaming up ways of getting a new arena announcer. Could a kind FSUer in Angers kidnap her maybe?

 

[Karen-W]

Torgy - black/grey shirt & black pants
Economides - black on black sheer on black
Shimada - navy blue taffeta-y dress shirt with crystals/stoning
Pitot - red turtleneck with stoning on one shoulder and half a black jacket falling off him
Jin - I don't even know how in the hell to describe this top - It's a muted navy blue with baby blue sashes & waistband over the shoulders and ombre on the cuffs of the bell sleeves and the hem of the peplum
Selevko - may look the most normal along with Torgy. I still don't approve of the teal satin & denim combo.

She's infinitely better than [select any of] the USFS announcers

 

[MacMadame]

I think we have one warhorse classical and one sad/emo cover but until I hear the music, I can't be sure.

 

[Karen-W]

@MacMadame - should we count Pitot's costume as "one sleeve" for the men?

Well, damn... Torgy's landing shit.

 

[MacMadame]

I still don't approve of the teal satin & denim combo.

It's more blue than teal on my tv and doesn't look bad at all.

(My tv adjusts to the ambient lighting so it's not necessarily consistent though.)

 

[Karen-W]

LMAO - Random fall on a non-element!

 

[Primorskaya]

That's only because French isn't your native language (I guess?)

 

[Hanna]

Wow vintage Torgashev, from when he was great back in 2015! Now he's tricking everyone into thinking it's gonna be a great season.

Of course just as I write that he takes a random splat in the middle of nothing

 

[tony]

I risk being thrown off a cliff by Rukia and a few others, but as someone who was a hardcore Torgashev cheerleader way back when (even thinking he'd have a chance at the 2018 Olympic team), I just don't understand how someone who moves so easily and gets some of the best gliding around the ice can just phone in every performance when it comes to his face now. He's always looking down or even looking bored.

First skater judging GOE stinginess, too.

 

[MacMadame]

@MacMadame - should we count Pitot's costume as "one sleeve" for the men?

It didn't strike me that way during warm up but I'l check when he skates

Well, damn... Torgy's landing shit.

Fall on non element and it's your fault!!

 

[genevieve]

Is "fall on absolutely nothing" on your bingo card?

Yes

Don't hate him for his Resting Bored Face

 

[Private Citizen]

The random fall just added to the wonderful “whatthef*ckery” of this program . Torgashev with voidy OES energy despite competing under the US flag.

 

[Sylvia]

Brandon Frazier is here with Andrew!

 

[MacMadame]

Entering Step Sequence so it gets an X and then putting in the level is giving me fits.

Does this count as "could be skating to anything"? I'm basing this on the complaints.

 

[Karen-W]

Fall on non element and it's your fault!!

LOL - you know, all the Torgy fans around here are gladly taking a fall on a non-element over his usual.

 

[Primorskaya]

He has a lovely smile actually. Why don't we get that, or any emoting, when he's performing?
