September 11, 20215 yr Author The men are on now. Gumennik looks good. 4S, 3A from spread eagle, and 3Lz-3Lo, nice spins as always, good performer, nice StSq.
September 11, 20215 yr Author Mozalev. He looks grown up. He keps this SP from last season I think. He goes into the 4S a bit too slow, turns out, 4T leans forward and adds a 2T to it, 3A off spread eagle. Spins are ok. He looks a bit slow maybe
September 11, 20215 yr Author Artur Danielian. I miss him a lot! Last time we've seen him was Europeans 2020. 4T steps out, 4S fall and pops the Axel into a single. Ted says he was very good at practices. Maybe he is nervous because it's the first time he performs in front of audience after such a long time. This SP suits him, his commitment to the choreo is so great despite of the mistakes, he is great at interpretation, nice SS and spins too. Hope we will see him back in great shape this season.
September 11, 20215 yr Author Samarin. Some modern music in the beginning then Matrix. I guess it's his style...but the choreo of this program is just empty with lots of crossovers. 4Lz-3T, 3F and 3A, the jumps are done quite well though
September 11, 20215 yr Author Kolyada. Maybe this SP is really new, it's just half ready, I don't know...but I didn't like this program that much. There are quite a lot of hand movements which look a bit random and excessive. His ice coverage, speed don't look that good. 4S fall, 4T-2T, 3A from spread eagle nice. Maybe I liked the step sequence the best. I will see how this program will develop throughout the season.
September 11, 20215 yr Author Semenenko. He's matured and he was really into the performance today. This short program suits him. 4T-3T, 4S, 3A quite impressive
September 11, 20215 yr Caught the end of Semenenko's skate. Looked very nice. Like the way he holds his upper body when he skates.
