Ilia MALININ (USA) | Exhibition Gala | ISU World Championships Prague 2026 | #FigureSkating

The phenomenon that is the quad god, Ilia Malinin, flowers in his hair, yellow laces in his skates as we await to see continued unique approach alongside inevitable technical brilliance from the now three-time world champion from the United States of America. I want to give it all to you. Darkness. So much I wanna do. Tonight, I want to lay at your feet, girl I was made for you, you were made for me. An enigma from here with the other medalist at this year's world championships to perform in Stars and Ice in Japan with Yuma Kagiyama and Shun Sato. We'll see how much he looks forward to relaxing doing shows, experiencing skating in a different format and in a different way. After the Free Skate yesterday he explained that to relax he likes watching YouTube videos, he does video gaming and he'll happily sleep all day and it just seems hard to comprehend that what Ilya does on the ice has any time for anything other than practice because he's just transcended all previous expectations of what was possible.
