Wow, great shot at the beginning of Frank Carroll standing by the boards with his hands clasped around his chest staring intently at Bebe (isn't he also coaching Mirai as well?; yeah, he is!).
Warmup Going On!
Love Bebe's black halter style short dress with a red rose in her hair, and also Mirai is also in black with gold glitter adorning her dress.
GAH!! Don't know if it's my computer, but my feed on skatebuzz.com has just died! help! where else can i watch? How do I acces it on this Guzei site, which seems to be in Russian...?
Ah, this music of Jules Massenet "Meditation" always make me wanna cry.
Brings back memories of Oksana Baiul skating to this exquisite piece of music the Fall of 1995 (she even dedicated it to Sergei that one time). I can just see her now......wearing silk grey with a feather in her hair......classical, beautiful, one of the best professional programs of all time, as well as G&G skating to this too.
This CHN gal had a horrible fall on her first triple jump attempt, nice comeback with either a 3S or 2S?. Hard time holding her edge on the spiral though. Great 2A! And the ending spin was superb!
Binshu Xu, CHN
Umbrellas of Cherbourg bombastic string arrangement
3lz hard fall, surprising, probably ur
3lo good
2a good near end
(I hope I have the jumps right, I'm not a skater so it's sometimes hard without commentary, or with Chinese commentary....)
spins pretty good, good positions, speed/centring not perfect tho
A bit of a businesslike/athletic kinda performance, but soft & nice enough without being exceptional. Shame about the fall, she had good attack.
37.08.. wow ok... was the loop maybe just a double?
