Fumie also may medal...., but perhaps not with Rachael and Julia?

**DarkestMoon** · 11-15-2009, 02:47 PM

Joshi:

2 A
3Lz - too long to set her edge
3S
Sit spin
3Lz - fall
3T
3T-2T
Sit spin
Spiral Seq
2A-2T - might have planned another 2T but not enough speed for it
SlStp

A rather bland program

Total: 129.91 3rd

Impossible not to like that Swedish girl. So young, so strong and so happy! Who knows, she may have a future in this sport.

What's with NBC? I missed the first few skates because I trusted them! But good to see Shawn, Ryan and Florent again.

Can we switch this for the ladies that skated the JGP in Lake Placid?

[color=red]*[/color][color=red]*[/color][color=red]*[/color] is going on? Is there a problem with the ice? Why so many falls???

looking at the scores, you'd think this is a JGP event.

**Bennett** · 11-15-2009, 02:51 PM

I wonder if there weren't any other American ladies whom they could bring to. Although Rachael would medal, I feel that there could have been more, no? This isn't doing much to promote FS before the Olympics despite the NBC coverage. I feel that non-skating fans would love Wagner, for example.

**Spun Silver** · 11-15-2009, 02:52 PM

ITA! Musademba would have been better too but I guess it's not allowed since she competed on Jr level.

**prettykeys** · 11-15-2009, 02:52 PM

2nd Group is out!

Go YuNa! Go Julia!

thsi is worse than JGPs, some of top girls at JGP could skate two clean programs . here these skater are getting PCS bonuses for being seniors.

The ice is sh-- quality and I think the rink is smaller than Olympic standard. There's been talk of jet lag. Though, I think the real issue is skating skills and/or mental game. Alexe has good basics but her mental is on or off. Same can be said for Tugba.

well. three of them are only 16/17th. Me curious to watch them in a few years.

This NBC program is my first view of everyone for this event. Kim's short program is gorgeous!

I'm sorry to hear that Tugba tanked. I saw her short program on YouTube (thanks to one of you who posted the link), and she skates with such charm.

Speaking of charm, Ryan Bradley's long program is a stitch! How brilliant! And he did two quads, so it isn't just posing and mugging to the music, either.
