The men were all doing (or trying) a triple-double combo, a double axel and a double lutz. This was a great competition. Almost all of the boys were really skating TO their music. There were a lot of really nice fast footwork runs. Some real high quality programs.Very entertaining.
Hmm. Well.. Long programs sure are long. Some are longer than others.
