@murasakimidori2011 so sexist, and a disgrace to the name midori...when midori pushed the envelope for 3 axel, people said, hey, leave it alone, only the men should do that...i agree the quad is important, but it doesnt MAKE it a men's competition...go back to the 90s where u had the boring quad king elvis, who couldnt even spin well or had basic skills...

This is male figure skating should be. Three perfect quads, two in long program and one in short program and two out of three are 4-3 combination. Most of male figure skaters today don't get the guts to even try quad. It is a huge step back. New rules should raise more points for quad jumps to encourage skaters to try. It is not male figure skating if there is no quads there. You wanna see some flexibility with out quads and trip Axels. Go watch girls.

@thequadlegend And you could definitely do better than that? They pay judges to give people scores for a reason...

@DarrenInCA failed attempt of the triple axel and he failed quite miserably this time. That's other flaws and music are quite boring there. He did very well on his attempt on quad and sit spins. Again improvements on quad jumps he is trying to achieve; if that's not the highest technical level why would he practices so hard to put this on this competition? He just doesn't deserve that high the point. what a joke!

Beautiful skate! Choreography? Meh. Music? Cliche...ALW should be banned by the ISU for overuse...second only to "Carmen"
Amazing quads!
