Mark GORODNITSKY (ISR) | Men Short Program | Skate Canada International 2024

Representing Israel, Mark Gorodnitsky. So it goes into this, lying in 11th place. All the best of luck here. Mark Gorodnitsky of Israel. Oh, you can see it was really off axis on that triple axel. No mistake that time, and it's a sequence with a double axel on the end. Good combination. Flip and toe, into the swing of things now. Keeps it going, it was double axel with a triple salvo for that triple flip. Well what a great way to start this men's three. It was a shaky start, you've got to agree. I mean, he did very, very well because he was completely off axis on the triple axel at the beginning. And from, he did the mistake to shake him up. Gorodnitsky, I'm going to give you thrill with that. Awful lot of fun. Better, better as it went on. Axel at the beginning, you can see it's awfully out of the circle. Didn't want to stay on his feet, but after that mistake, there was no looking back. He went thundering down the other end of the rink and got another triple in a sequence with a double axel on the end. There's the flip. Good combination, triple toe on the end. Kept the speed through that circle. Very much on the technical elements, particularly the jumps. Lost a couple of levels here and there on the spins. And this sequence as well, only got a level two for that. So, trying to get a little bit more quality into the turns. Look at the changes of direction and see if he can get that up to a four, because that's going to help him a lot. A lot to be very proud of. 139.23 is his season's best score. It's a 141.62. So yeah, you've got to take that.
