This is nice but also confusing 😵💫
別的不說
4T3T 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Amazing!!!!!! 😭
Yes Shoma!
Ice dance results were the most shocking!
it’s looking like a ROC-USA-JPN situation 🧐
Japan dance really hurt the scores but what can you do. (Meanwhile look at the Chinese dance team!) Canada is gonna barely make it into free skate 😬😬😬😬
Peacock tv has two feeds:
- no commentary + terrible score box
- Tara/Johnny + a slightly better score box
It’s a tough choice but I rather go with no commentary 😂
今天上班時發現我用磨上次奧運的桌布也用了四年了 是否今年可以換一下 😆 let’s see lol
Shoma v Nathan:
Very close scores actually only about 6 points off, which is about 4 points on the back loaded 4-3 combo and 1 point on the lost levels in spin/steps and 1 point on PCS 🧐
How can you beat the back loaded 4Lutz-3Toe in a short program? 17.27 points BV is insane.
Hubbell/Donahue v Snitsina/Katsalapov:
This is a surprise upset! But I guess it is super close too being 1.5 points apart! They had essentially the same PCS. The Russians has a slightly harder technical BV but the Americans executed better with higher GOEs. And that was all that it took!!!!
Sui/Han v Mishina/Galliamov:
I think the only one surprised were the Russians? 😂 but you just can’t beat The chinese when they nailed that side by side Toeloop!!! And talk about close scores - 0.19 was the only difference!!!! I think that tiny bit of PCS and GOE advantage did it for the Chinese team.
看直播的時候忙著跟朋友們傳簡訊😂 導致完全沒有寫任何記錄 no I’m too lazy so here are some highlights? Lol
Men’s free:
- Mark really did a good job for Russia! A lot of pressure being the weakest link and yet perform at such a high level!
- Yuma!!!!!!!!!! That was too amazing! Surprised to see the 4Lo, a little shaky but the rest was just perfect! So happy to see he come in first!
- Vincent seemed slower than he was earlier this season, had some visible UR... even the end of the program seemed a little deflated
- Roman: I hope he’s ok! That was a tough skate
- Boyang: I just cannot get into his performance...
I did take a picture of the team standing going into free skate, I suppose this was the expected results so far.
Such a great night!
I am so behind on any notes but almost everyone in the last 2 groups was nailing their programs! Congrats on all the clean skates!
Highlight moments of the kids and cry:
Shoma - surprised at getting a higher score even with a hand down on the combo ❤️
Yuma - so happy at his score and accidentally whacked his dad in the face 😆
少年清德這點真的太好笑😆
我看到這張照片心中也是想起美穗子老師😭
SP protocols
I have never seen Jin Boyang skate this well before!!!!!
Jason chose to leave out the quad for a perfect Olympic performance!! ❤️ respect ✊
Jun!! That was an amazing come back!!!
Shoma! 🥉 too bad on the combo but yay!!
Yuma just nailed it again!! Breaking 200TES and 300 total!
Nathan pretty much could have stopped skating at some point and still win 😂 just wow! So amazing!
Oh! 4A< 🎉
so it is a certified jump (while not yet a ratified jump???) not sure how this works but something about the negative GOEs...
amazing!!!!!
- the test was done two months ago (~12/21)
- there were typically samples A & B
- doping athlete should be named, but minors should be protected (how can this be achieved?)
- said drug (TMZ, I cannot spell the full name) is a cardiac arrest drug, which is a metabolism modulator that helps the heart work better by increasing the oxygen level in the blood and better blood circulation.
*summarized based on what I heard/read. I didn’t fact check nor am I a medical professional...
In my opinion it is a drug that basically enhances the athlete’s endurance, which ic a necessary skill to perform programs full of difficult elements. Not only does it enhance the competition performance, it also makes practices really effective, when you’re less tired....
Anyone who skates knows this. Skating is like a marathon in a sprint....
- Russian media: it is not a performance enhancing drug
- WADA: banned since 2014
- Sharapova (Russian tennis player) was found positive of this drug
Clearly Kamila is a minor and not at fault here. Clearly she would not have a choice or perhaps not even know that this was given to her.
Clearly it is the adults who should be investigated.
- RE: raising the age limit for seniors - “is it really the age or is it the doping?”
That’s a very interesting question.
Is this perhaps why they can train as much as they do (until they break down physically)?
- the Russian team doctor is an anesthesiologist (not an orthopedist) 🧐
- he did not even check Mishina/Galliamov after serious fall in the team free skate
amazing
I love them ❤️
