Yukari - fall off landing edge of 3A... probably underrotated, 3F-2T good, 3S-2T good, 2A good, really nice speed on her combination spin, (program feels a bit forced), popped her 3Lz into a double, spiral... much better extension than usual, andddd my computer just froze so that's it lol.

got it back... slight stumble on step sequence, 3T-2T-2Lo a little slow, nice flying camel.

Did she trip during her midline?

The judges are downgrading tons of jumps tonight. It will be interesting how Mao will have her jumps scored. Here we go

Good news for Ando is that she closed the gap with Nakano on the PCS.

Mao... 3A-2T looks good!, 3A looks good again, (nicely done Mao... she looks very nervous though), 3F-2Lo-2Lo possible !, spiral very nice, 3S very nice, 3F fall (uh oh) so no combo there, 3T... so she left out the 3Lz, 2A nice, spin a bit slow but nice positions, very nice step sequence, (Mao seems a bit out of it now), spin possibly short rotations on some positions. Nice beginning... but seemed a bit down after the fall.

Mao should score very high, even with the fall. Both 3A looked good to me.

ETA: maybe not. The 2nd flip was definatly underrotated. I guess at least one of the axels was downgraded as well.

So there is a bad side to this Korean audience - basically no applause at all for the second 3A and this strange noise the audience made when Asada fell...

Mao wants that gold in 2010 - I can just see it in her eyes. This is one determined athelete.

Yes, for two triple axels that was a pretty weak response.
