Dang I missed Sasha:banging: I was too busy trying to figure out why Tivo wasnt getting reception on the lower channels but was on the higher ones Ugh technology

Im glad to hear she did well. I cant wait to see her programs!!

ps: I'm calling the airlines because I just might be there on Saturday for the Ladies FS, though I absolutely detest flying (i.e. airplane flying, lol, not so bicycle flying, rollerskating flying, jogging flying, you get the picture).

Wow she tried a 3/3????? Why oh why did I not watch this! Why did I go to class???

I am so happy for her and proud. That's our girl!

Sasha's practice was great. Her speed was amazing across the ice and she was very focused, I like that. You Go Girl!!!

If nothing else, Sasha still has the best ******** posture of any skater in the business. A very refreshing change from all the slouching going on.

Pics from her practice.

She's made of pure muscle:

Only Sasha can make a Biellmann spin look imperious:

There is no doubt, no hesitation at all:

Wonderful post, incredible pictures - thanks! SCARY (1st one), funny (with your caption - 2nd one), and just gorgeous (3rd one). No wonder Tarasova called her a little tiger.

LOVE IT!!!

Espcially the second photo... In my next life, I plan on having a snarl that great: "think you can beat me? good, cause you're the only one."

I LOVE NATIONALS. LET'S GO!!!

[zephyrskates]

OMG. She actually has a SP. It does look like she will compete (and have a chance). I think her biggest competition is Nagasu and Flatt.

Good things

Great speed
Great spiral sequence. I love the split jump in between
Great steps that go well with the music
Overall great program (What is this music? Sounds familiar but cannot remember)
Good 2A


Things that are questionable

- Serious flutz (I truly believed that it was a Flip combo and then surprised that she had another flip later on and then realized that it was meant to be a lutz)
- Fall on flip
- Need to see what levels will be given to her spins, St steps, and spiral sequence.
- I also do not necessarily think that her spins and spirals are what separates her from the rest of the field. They are fab, but Alissa and Mirai also have fab spins and spirals. Zhang has great spins, too. Wagner is also beautiful.

I would say whoever that is clean will lead the SP.

I think she looks great considering the circumstances. One thing I think for sure is that she isn't going to embarrass herself. She looks pretty prepared, at least from what we've seen so far.

That's a bit .. scary, but nice to see that she's fit. (:

Am I the only one who thought she looked a little slow?
