How full is the arena? Looks much better attended then the last few Skate Americas. Good to see the turnout is much better.

Why is Valentina not attempting a flip at least? I got used to no loop, but to have 2 type of triples completely missing, that is rare.

I am also really pleased with and impressed by Meite. This is just great skating. It's She has such wonderful confidence and attack.
Excited for Gao!
Meite really can make some waves if she keeps skating this well, at least at the Euros.
I really enjoyed Meite's LP... it has a lot of potential once she cleans it up and maybe picks up a bit of speed (though that might just be how she comes off on tv)

Wow, great program w/ 6 triples! The best I've seen her! Should definitely be enough for a medal.
This is unbelievable, Gao looks like a world beater! She never did anything like this in her whole career
WOWOWOWOWOWOWOOWOWOW! Christina AMAZING GAO!
I don't know that I've ever been as happy for a skater as I am for Gao right now. She looks so happy and gorgeous. I just love watching her now. Her jumps are so solid and her movements so fluid. Does she have another GP event? I cant recall right now. She is certainly a US lady to watch. If she keeps skating like this she could easily be a spoiler at Nationals, especially if others falter.
