Dice Murakami's footwork was very entertaining, I thought!
From a russian post:

She fell on the entrance of her flip (or after flip? people say different things...), but then stood up and landed 3F, but couldn't add 2T (she planned to do 3F-2T), so she did 3Lz-2T. She landed all of her jumps and I have no ideas why she fell. Anyway, we will see video later. Very good for herI like this girl sooo much and cheer for her! And glad for Katarina Gerboldt too

I saw the Kerrs OD and they messed up the last part of the side by side step sequence as well as the twizzles.
Even without the mistakes, there still hasn't been improvement with the partnering, closeness, and line issues they had in the past, and the program itself is only just "ok". The music choice and a few choreographic touches that play to the audience will probably make it popular with casual viewers and people who already like the Kerrs, but I don't think it'll win many converts or move them up.
Alena Leonova sp - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L31Gw...er_profilepage
She fell during crossovers because she was too close to the boards. She is fighter! That fall happened just few seconds before her flip jump - so she lost a lot of speed needed for the jump but she still went for triple, landing wasn't ideal she fell out of it.
And, of course, he won![]()

ETA: Thanks for the protocols, Hsuhs!
Congrats to Voronov for winning the LP. By tiny margin, but still.
Brezina is also coming back from injury, isn't he? I hope he gets better as the season goes on. I loved him at Nebelhorn last season.
It seems that Murakami has caught a Zayak bug from Oda while training on the same rink. Morozov will have a fit!![]()
