Is there a live feed?

You did mean 9 pm, right?

[SerpentineSteps]

Is there a live feed?

You did mean 9 pm, right?

No, GMT -9:00 = Greenwich Mean Time minus 9 hours

Although I do believe Korea would be GMT *plus* 9.

Either way, 11pm EST (i.e. in 20 minutes).

[Spun Silver]

Oh thanks! Any way to watch live?

[SkateSkates]

Oh thanks! Any way to watch live?

A stream would be appreciated!

[CARA]

http://gorealra.sbs.co.kr/g3/web/introduce.jsp#. You'll need to install 2 softwares, but they are in Korean. So, go to the 2nd page of:
http://www.goldenskate.com/forum/sho...(all-countries). There were pretty good insturctions.
Good luck!

Champagne for the figure-skating soul.)

Hicks reminded me of Polina Shelepen so much and not in a good way. She has the same weaknesses. 3F was wonderful, very high, but 3T were UR. Interesting positions on spins

Disclaimer: Even if you are successful in installing the above livestream, it bufferes a lot. Oh, the things skating fans have to endure...

I saw some of Courtney. 3+3 looked UR, 2A was nice. Love her original spin positions. Needs a lot of work in basics, polish, presentation.

The panel in the Qualifying Round was really strict, so I wouldn't be surprised if we see a lot of downgrades today. It might benefit the big jumpers like Sotnikova, Tuktamysheva, Zawadzki.

[Spun Silver]

I can't understand the directions so will have to wait for youtube. Thanks for any live commentary, everyone.

Her score seems really low. Did she miss her jump or anything? I couldn't see the entirety.

[oleada]

Her 3+3 was underrotated for sure.

[gold12345]

Yes, the stream will drive you nuts. But it's better than nothing. Courtney Hicks did well, but she does lack polish and needs work on presentation. Her jumps looked good besides the UR.

[Spun Silver]

Why did she skate 1st?
