About the program
Adam Siao Him Fa revealed his Take Five short program in late July, and Benoit Richaud choreographed it, as he does most of Adam's work. The Brubeck standard ends in a step sequence driven by the drums.
Early reaction was mixed. His summer debut was rough, with a fall on the triple Axel, and some fans felt the Richaud style was starting to repeat itself. Others loved his musicality from the first clip.
Grand Prix de France settled it. He landed the quad Salchow he'd been missing in warmup and scored 102.46 to lead, 0.09 off his Olympic best. Fans noted he was nearly the only clean man of the night, then spent half the thread joking about his casual shirt.
