Live play-by-play coverage: Trophee Eric Bompard men's free skate:
http://www.examiner.com/figure-skating- ... free-skate

QUAD COUNT: 8 attempted, 2 clean (Song toe, Chan toe)

Patrick Chan CAN - quad toe (nice), quad toe-triple toe (!!), double axel, trips and hand down on step sequence, triple lutz (fall out, hand down), triple loop, triple flip, double lutz (step out), double axel - TES 72.30, PCS 85.14, FALL -1.00, FS SCORE 156.44, TOTAL SCORE 240.60

Nan Song CHN - quad toe (turn out), quad toe-triple toe (nice), triple axel, triple axel-double toe, triple flip, double lutz, triple salchow (barely holds on), double axel-double toe - not as good as Cup of China for Song, but still, really consistent skating from this guy this season - TES 79.93, PCS 67.64, FS SCORE 147.57, TOTAL SCORE 224.10

Michal Brezina CZE - The Untouchables - triple axel (nice), triple flip-triple toe (fall out), double salchow, triple axel-double toe, triple flip (big), triple loop, triple lutz, double axel (overrotated, step out) - TES 67.72, PCS 76.56, FS SCORE 144.28, TOTAL SCORE 218.60

Adam Rippon USA - Air - quad lutz (downgrade, two-foot), triple axel-double toe (just made it out of the axel), triple loop, triple axel (looked possibly underrotated), walley-triple flip-double toe, double lutz-half loop-triple salchow, triple Rippon lutz, triple toe - nice skate from Rippon, let's see about those rotations - TES 70.05, PCS 74.88, FS SCORE 144.93, TOTAL SCORE 217.89

Florent Amodio FRA - triple salchow (off-axis in the air and pulled out of trying the quad), quad salchow (fall), double axel, triple lutz-half loop-double toe, triple lutz-double toe, triple flip (fall out), triple axel - really, a lot of attitude and not enough substance in this program - TES 60.48, PCS 70.44, FALL -1.00, FS SCORE 129.92, TOTAL SCORE 201.34

Kevin Reynolds CAN - Withdrawn "because of medical reasons"

Nobunari Oda JPN - Umbrellas of Cherbourg - triple axel-double toe-single loop, triple flip-triple toe (nice), double flip (step out), single loop, falls on step sequence, looks completely lost, back spiral into triple axel (bails out midway, fall), triple lutz (fall), triple salchow, waltz jump (was to be double axel) - that was as bad as I've ever seen him skate, it'll be interesting to see if there's some sort of injury going on, effects from his knee issue over the summer? - TES 46.63, PCS 60.62, FALLS -3.00, FS SCORE 104.25, TOTAL SCORE 167.20

Alexander Majorov SWE - Bolero - triple axel-double toe, triple lutz-double toe (foot down on toe), triple axel (turn out), triple flip-triple toe (fall out), back spiral into double axel, double flip (step out), triple salchow, double axel - TES 65.78, PCS 62.70, FS SCORE 128.48, TOTAL SCORE 190.60

Romain Ponsart FRA - quad toe (fall), triple axel (nice), triple axel (turn out), triple axel (bailed out forward at two rotations), triple loop-double toe, triple flip-double toe, spread eagle-single flip, triple salchow-double toe-double toe (ooh, that last combination might not count - depends on whether the panel counts the second triple axel attempt as a downgraded triple axel or a downgraded double axel) - TES 54.94, PCS 56.48, FALL -1.00, FS SCORE 110.42, TOTAL SCORE 160.45

Chafik Besseghier FRA - quad salchow (bailed out midair, downgrade), triple axel (step out), steps into triple lutz, triple axel-double toe, triple loop (scratches to a standstill on the landing), triple salchow-double toe, triple salchow-double toe-double toe, double axel (foot down), some painfully slow spins - TES 58.58, PCS 55.38, FS SCORE 113.96, TOTAL SCORE 160.39

GO LIZA GO!!!!

[let`s talk]

The medal ceremonies were awesome. They (French organizers) put three Russain flags in pairs, instead of 2 Russian + 1 Canadian. In men's they didn't play a Canadian anthem but a (?) Chinese. Great. French must be sending some kind of message. I'll think about it later. Now I am waiting for Liza.

GO LIZA! OUR HEARTS ARE WITH YOU!
