It is not surprising that Jin Boyang fell around the outer point of the ice (4T). In the sixth practice, he mainly practiced this jump, not the more difficult hook (4Lz). Obviously, he is more worried about the outer layer of ice. But at least I stopped dancing for three and a half weeks (3A), and my grades were not too bad. If China wants to win a medal in the team, he needs Jin Boyang to be a super god. It's neither good nor bad now, and the hope of winning a medal is slim. It is also more dangerous to enter the free skating situation. Generally speaking, Jin Boyang and Han Yan's strategy of betting on the upper limit is a failure.
Russia's men's singles is the shortcoming of their team competition. Kondra Chuk has basically not participated in international competitions before this season. This season, he broke out from the all-Russian championship and even won the all-Russian and European championships. Corea has retired, so it's still dangerous for him to take the men's singles short program. However, he continued his good state. Although he jumped reluctantly several times and his performance ability was far from the top, he stopped jumping. Unless he meets COVID-19 and retires, the Russian team's gold medal is basically stable.
In Japan, if it weren't for the injury, I couldn't understand that Yusheng, as a leading figure, gave up the opportunity to appear in this short program, but Uno played bravely today, and his jumping and artistic performance were excellent. Putting aside the minor flaws in rotation, it was the first amazing performance today. It seems that Japan's team medal is also stable, and it can compete with the United States for silver medal in the future.
Vitera Shvili, a Georgian, has a strange skill in ice jumping, but his performance today is still very good. In other words, the prospect of China's free skating is even less optimistic. In short, it's good to see the gap between China's first brother Jin Boyang and the world's top players. I hope he can show his talents in this respect and play better in the future!
