The spanish flag is flying high!!!
Javi must be good for Sonia, lovely program, could have been more expressive, but not bad, question mark on the axel maybe short on rotation but by video looks ok!! but it will hurt her.
But overall that is good for Sonia

gedevanishvili is leading! http://thewrongedgefigureskatingblog.blogspot.com/
Thanks so much for all the descriptions, as I cannot view the event. Much appreciated.
Yay for Joshi and Vicky! Happy for the French girls. Yretha much better since I last saw her. France is bringing it back in all disciplines. G and G also impressing, especially Gedevanishvili. Orser
Competition is always goodOriginally Posted by russell30
Rightly or wrongly, I tend to regard female skaters as either primarily spinners or primarily jumpers. That is, that their talents tend primarily toward one direction, or the other. Gedevanishvili has always seemed to me to be a jumper, just needing a little more control and perhaps, patience, to bring out her latent abilities; I think that Brian Orser is providing her with what she needs.

Let's hope so after all problems during her carrier
Final group is warming up on the ice
Are Viktoria and Joshi actually fighting for Sweden's one worlds spot? I assumed Viktoria was already assigned to worlds..

Miles better from Kiira than her GP performances!
Kiira skated really well, should go into first.
KIIRA WOW WOW WOW!!!!
Shes's back, not sure on that final triple to her combo, might be short but I will give it to her, loop and axel gorgeous, level 4 spins definately, program beautiful. Clear Leader!!!
Btw, I see Makarova has a different dress on, hopefully that means she changed her program?
