    I filmed both and will post them Sunday Night or Monday. As you can see its 5AM I need to get up in 3 hours to get out to SD

    Oh, thanks a lot! I just wanted to know if you have it or not and will wait patiently until you have time to post it! Really appreciate all your hard work.

    She's been training with Orser in Toronto. In this free program she doesn't attempt 3Lo and she flutzes. Other than these issues, I think she has a solid jumping technique and is quite a prospect for her age.

    Her 3-turn entrance flips, spiral positions, 3S right after SpSeq are very reminiscent of Yuna's.

    THANK YOU, Mysticchic!!!!! I realy, really appreciate that you recorded his performance.

    Fedor's skating is just !

    ETA: He updated his Twitter account with, "Jeff's choreo. I feel like I still have a lot to get out of it and I absolutely LOVE the programs!"

    "Finished Long practice...it went very well. So stoked for the long!" :-)

    Oh wow, you're right! Perhaps with a bit more polishing (especially on those spins), we could very well have another young American star on our hands.

    ETA - Anybody know what she scored?

    Alyssa's jumps always look great at club competitions because there's no pressure at those events. But at International competitions, it's a whole different story.

    Please tell me that Gaskill is standing on something. Jones looks like a tiny doll compared to him. I think that height difference is just too extreme.

    Here is Alissa's SP

    quite frankly I am very underhwlemed. Nice skating but I didn't like the music cuts at all, no drama, like Evan's program. Chreoraphy was just generic spanish.

    According to http://twitter.com/SylviaUnseen, her SP score is 56.35 with combined total 164.63. So I guess her LP score is 108.28.

    Gao's SP:

    I'm happy to see that Andreev's LP score was 132.63 (his best ever for the free), which gives him a total is 209.04. He won the event by almost 29 points. This is a very auspicious start to his season!

    Bumped into Fedor's FS.

    He doubled a couple of jumps, but I fully enjoyed this program...

    Thanks for posting the link! When (I'm hoping it's a "when" and not an "if") he skates this program cleanly, it will be GLORIOUS!!!
