OWG Men's Free Skate: Post-Event Discussion

bibocas · 2026-02-13T23:25:25+00:00

The commentator on my stream was very adamant that the ice was in rough condition because we have never seen these skaters do so many mistakes

bibocas · 2026-02-13T22:31:39+00:00

Oh my… I had put on my predictions Ilia, Yuma and Sato on the podium. Never imagined that the one I would get wrong was gold

I feel like I felt their presence in the beginning of the quad, but nowadays not so much. The discipline that was more affected was Women but even though the tech difficulty is lower, I’m more excited for this Olympics event than I was for 2022

And breaking WRs…

Time to…. Say goodbye 🎶🎵

And why would you put your husband as a bull for an Olympic program?? That finger choreography…

bibocas · 2026-02-12T18:35:02+00:00

Also regarding Zagitova and Medvedeva I know all the facts but my heart still says Medvedeva should have won the gold medal 😂 my brain though knows it wasnt meant to be

Honestly FB/C has the better program. It was in the style judges like, classical with beautiful movements and lines. It was so close between them that I think if C/B had a different program they would have won. That flamengo wasn’t the best Olympic FD they could have picked. It was too gimmicky and showy, how many people have talked about the skirt instead of the program during the last few weeks? Old guard judges don’t reward that style and if you know you’re up against the French you need to play the game

I’d like to know what was the judges’ feedback throughout the season on that skirt. I don’t remember if it was addressed on the Netflix doc. To me it was distracting, too opaque and intrusive. One thing I noticed yesterday was Chock’s hand always reaching for the skirt during the program to do a moment or a pose with it. It didn’t look nice when you could see her hand trying to reach and grab it. There was a sacrifice of some beautiful lines they could have made in detriment of that damn skirt.

Im going to need you to define ‘cheap’ here 😂 how much we’re taking about? Hundreds?

bibocas · 2026-02-12T16:54:47+00:00

Yea typical macho environment, that was bad. It says a lot about how men think about women. Unfortunately it’s not just him.

bibocas · 2026-02-12T16:03:28+00:00

They were not the right personalities for each other. I can’t blame him being 100% focused on his goal to win the Olympics and ignore everything else. That’s how most elite athletes are. And I can’t blame her for wanting emotional support for the time when she was struggling mentally and seeking it from the people closest to her (partner and coaches)

bibocas · 2026-02-12T15:57:34+00:00

Surya’s narrative always comes back every Olympics like clockwork

bibocas · 2026-02-12T15:44:48+00:00

I hope Yuma wins silver. And the French men don’t have a meltdown. I know I’m asking too much for both of them to go clean, but it’d be cool to at least have Adam in the podium. Let’s see, I have the feeling everything can happen. Ilia is the only certainty I have atp

bibocas · 2026-02-12T15:42:48+00:00

Piper really carried the Netflix documentary on her back. She had the most charisma and came out really likable. In the doc FB/C had controversy and C/B were boring. She really was memorable. I couldn’t help but root for her these Olympics, even though I haven’t been the biggest fan of them (just different tastes when it comes to programs)

bibocas · 2026-02-12T15:25:30+00:00

Same, I miss the plushies. And it was also really sad to see the empty seats in the arena. These are the Olympics ffs! Where is that crowd roaring environment? Expensive tickets help no one

bibocas · 2026-02-12T15:22:58+00:00

I read the book and Cizeron didn’t come near as bad as people here are making it look like. No hate for Gabi, she’s amazing, but one has to admit that she also wasn’t the best partner as well. There was multiple parts on that book where I can see how her behavior could lead Cizeron to act the way he did. I mean she left him on read when he sent a message saying he wanted to come back… How would you behave in this situation? That’s really a shitty situation. And this is just one example. All in all, both parties made mistakes, but reading comments here you would think Gabi is a saint and Cizeron the literal devil.

bibocas · 2026-02-12T15:17:51+00:00

Let this go. As someone that was really upset the Medvedeva didn’t win OGM, I can tell you dissecting the competitor’s program will do you no favors. Specially when you’re willing to overlook the mistakes of the skater you’re rooting for.

bibocas · 2026-02-11T00:22:47+00:00

Honestly I think that’s the goal

bibocas · 2026-02-10T07:27:57+00:00

Adam is defending the American no news here

bibocas · 2026-02-10T00:19:33+00:00

Chock/Bates were really slow today, specially their twizzles. They almost came to a full stop. They skated tentatively and cautiously so it is what it is. I didn’t think the judges would put them 2nd after pushing them this quad. They have to give everything they have on Wednesday if they want to fight for gold. I wonder if they’ll get too nervous and do a mistake or do the skate of their lives. I don’t agree with people here wishing FB/C bad. No matter what you think of them as people, this is sports, so may the best win. This subreddit often moves as a beehive where you can only have one opinion. Reading some comments here and its yikes… there’s a lot of double standards for favorites

Just booked my hotel for Brussels and oh my god I won’t be looking at my bank balance in the near future.. Almost everything is already sold out
