Oh Nadine don't stir up painful memories!!! I love Arakawa but Sasha's R&J skate at the Olympics was just heartbreaking.Originally Posted by Nadine
Good luck to the rest of the ladies (as well as the other skaters competing later)!
Thanks for the running commentary guys; much appreciated!!!
I always love how they make a mention that Fumie skated in Anchorage, Alaska. Even after 50 years of being a state, and being as modern as anywhere else, Alaska is still so *exotic* :rolleyes:
me too :(
let's hope for tomorrow! she can do far much better!
Fumie gets the 4th components????? behind marchei lacoste samson and zawadski????didn't expect that! not that I don't like them but...
Haruki Imai: VERY FAST. Well, she rocked that. Great speed in the spins especially.
WOW, this is my favorite program thus far in terms of having it all!!! *clapping* The costume, the music, the choreography, the skater, everything was just divine. Lol I enjoyed the whole picture so much that I forgot about the jumps, though I do recall she did the required ones without fault, lovely flexible spins, my only complaint is she needs to stretch her legs out (especially the knee). Except for Mao, I notice practically all the Japanese skaters have a tendency NOT to stretch their legs out, which is a pet peeve of mine. Anyhow, GOOD JOB, GOOD JOB!!!!

Ksenia is just so awesome!
Makarova: Well done. Rock solid jumps. Good spins. So-so footwork. She was on.
Ksenia! So happy for her!!
WOW, lovely lively program from Ksenia which is warmly received by the crowd, and rightfully so!!!! *clapping*
FINALLY A 3/3 COMBO.! (oops, also Amelie did a 3R/3R combo., sorry about that guys, I thought it was a 3R/2R, probably because of the step out & hand down afterward).
Gorgeous 3-turns into the 3R by Ksenis (reminiscent of Irina Slutskaya & Sarah Hughes signature move), and a beautiful spiral into 2A! Ending with a lovely Biellmann. Should be a good score!
57.90 - in first.
Go Czisny!!
from one cute coach to another... (Viktor Petrenko, now Jason Dunjen
GO ALISSA!
Sorry for asking but can somebody tell me what a 3R is
