It’s a great revenge for Kevin Aymoz. The Frenchman, who sank at the end of last season and for a time expressed the desire to stop skating, took second place in the Finnish Grand Prix on Saturday behind Yuma Kagiyama.
With this podium, Aymoz also qualifies for the Grand Prix Final at home in Grenoble at the beginning of December. “Ten months ago, I wanted to stop skating. Step by step, I came back. I’m so proud to skate for myself and continue my story on the ice,” he commented.

“I am not satisfied”
The Japanese, 2022 Olympic vice-champion in Beijing, won thanks to his large lead gained during the short program. He made a mistake on his opening quadruple flip, and was very unhappy with his performance on the free.
“I wasn't really physically tired, but I'm not satisfied, it's a disappointment,” said the Japanese, recent winner of the NHK trophy, after the competition. The Italian Daniel Grassl completes the podium.
Among the women, the Japanese Hana Yoshida, third in Skate Canada at the end of October, won ahead of her compatriot Rino Matsuike. The Italian Lara Naki Gutmann finished third.
