Denis Ten, KAZ: 41.64 TES + 34.36 PCS = 76.00 and into 1st place
- Nice high solid triple axel to open up his program
- A little stumble forward on the landing of that triple flip triple toe but he hangs on to it
- Nice speed and positions through his camel spin
- Nice triple lutz
- Good twisted sit spin with nice speed and transition out of it
- Great passion and fire behind this footwork with some interesting choreography and great level changes and use of his whole body
- A little open on the double axel but otherwise nicely done
- Triple flip (turn out on one leg) + triple toe
- Nice positions in the camel spin but he could be stronger about the position of his free arm
- Good spread eagle into a triple lutz
- Seems very slow going into the combination spin but he is on the music and has a nice twisted sit position--not a lot of speed coming out and no real transition into his next steps
- Nice hydroblade but a bit awkward coming out of it
- Slow through his footwork, not a lot of challenging steps and almost no upper body movement--he seems very stiff through this section
- Nice final spit spin
- Not a lot of speed into the double axel but he pulls it off
- Triple lutz + triple toe a little tight on the landing
- A little wonky in the air on the triple loop
- He needs some more stretch through that catchfoot camel spin position

- Nice spread eagle into double axel
- Nice height on the triple lutz + triple toe
- Good triple loop
- Not a lot of speed through his camel spin
- A lot of speed going into the combination spin but he gets control of it; shows off some nice flexibility in the upright catchfoot spin

- Nice transition into his spin right from his step sequence with good positions
- Two footed the landing of the opening triple axel
- Nice triple flip + triple toe
- Ekes out the landing on that triple lutz
- Nice position in his camel spin with good height on his free leg into a nice catchfoot
- Good speed on the sit spin with both arms held up behind him

- Nice speed and flexibility through his camel spin
- Good combination spin with an interesting catchfoot with his arm wrapped behind his head to grab on to his leg

- The strap on his pant keeping it under his boot came undone and he did a nice recovery at the end of the step sequence to pull the pant leg up so it wasn't in his way
- Got the crowd cheering during his bow when he rolled up the other pant leg
Maciej Cieplucha, POL: 29.11 TES + 28.07 PCS = 57.18 and into 11th place
- Opening double axel was nice

- Good triple loop to end the program--I especially like the height of his free leg on the landing
- Nice speed and position through the camel spin with a decent catchfoot
- Interesting back sit spin with a broken leg variation
- Fun music for his step sequence but I'd like to see some variation in the choreography and more use of his full body to go with it
- Good speed through his final spin

Alexander Majorov, SWE: 28.34 TES + 30.23 PCS -2.00 = 56.57 and into 13th place
- If you're going to do Austin Powers you have to 100% commit to your choreography and really sell it
- Nice opening triple axel
- Really low on the entry into his triple lutz and he falls stomach first on to the ice
- Didn't get that triple flip pulled in and he fell and slid into the boards
- It seems like there's something funny going on with his jump technique. He gets so low to the ice with his upper body (almost hunched over) on the take off that it makes it difficult for him to get fully vertical and pull the leg in and get the jump rotated.
- Kudos to him for still going for the program after the mistakes and showing nice speed in his spins

- Huge smile from him here in this step sequence; a lot of nuances especially through his arms with nice edges

- Nice triple flip--good jumps but I wish he had more transitions between them
- A little slow through the back tuck position in his split spin

- Nice transition into his sit spin with good extension and nice chnages of position

- Nice triple axel
- Flying entry to the upright spin looked a little wild and not a lot of speed through the spin
