Ladies Free Skate

visaliakid · Feb 28, 2009

So, I guess this thread is really not about commenting on the Ladies Free Skate, but just a ***** session for a few who don't like who is competing here... Like it is their fault! Okay, Bye!

Just saw a post in FSU.

According to Ice Skating International's coverage:

I really wish that she had withdrawn, if she has the flu!!

We will know how she is feeling in a little while. If she is still sick, she will probably withdraw.

Having done a search, I find no online streaming available, outside of IN, so their shutout campaign has apparently succeeded. In lieu of visuals, here is the ISU results page URL for this event:

We are down to the last two flights, now.

omg Sonja Lafuente had 3 falls?? :eek:

Dodhiyel · Feb 28, 2009

So far, we are seeing *a lot* of deductions. Ouch.

She might have had one deduction for time violation...it happens often when one falls.

I hope Francesca Rio does well. I like her, she has fire and personality. She reminds me Ashley in the last year tango. And I think this might be her last event as single, since she's training with Hotarek as Pairs.

MissIzzy · Feb 28, 2009

No, she fell three times. She just went to pieces late in the program.

GiuliaPlum · Feb 28, 2009

Ehy, look at this

1 Oksana GOZEVA 126.70 15 1
2 Francesca RIO 122.70 7 3

It may be a farce to some, but not to the skaters, I can assure you. Come on, who is to blame for the age-based Junior-Senior system? The skaters? We all know it is the ISU.

That being the case... all the competitors in this competition sure as hell don;t think this event is a farce. Get Real. Where are the comments about what is going on, on the ice right now!

I have no objection to putting on a competition and inviting a senior Olympic athlete (Gedevanishvili), a senior World Championship competitor (Wagner) and a senior Grand Prix finalist (Zhang) to headline it.

I just don't see why we call it the "junior championship."

Is it just me or does Bingwa sorta look like a young Naomi Nari Nam?

They should call it "Grand Prix series qualification" or "Last chance to get a medal Championships"

Is anyone actually watching the competition... The American ladies are up, starting with Caroline.. Anyone able to do pbp?

HCOSurfer · Feb 28, 2009

Caroline just landed 7 triples..again :clap:

GiuliaPlum · Feb 28, 2009

Next year Adelina Sotnikova and Elizaveta Tuktamisheva are making their Junior debut, aren't they? We might see a battle beetween they and the (real) Junior American ladies, who knows! I love Elizaveta!

Snowgirl · Feb 28, 2009

No, they are not. They will turn 13 after July 1.

Dodhiyel · Feb 28, 2009

Thanks, HCOSurfer

PolymerBob · Feb 28, 2009

Caroline comes roaring back. She is coughing in the K & C.
