Skate Canada 2012 Ladies - Short Program

Ah, love to see that attack and energy from Osmond. Great start. Love that we have a young Canadian lady with a lot of potential and who really seems like a competitor.

Didn't catch her skate, unfortunately - but she seems happy in Kiss&Cry

Osmond
Score: 60.56 (PB) and into 1st

Wow, what did she land?

**tulosai** · 10-26-2012, 02:19 PM

Aw she looks delighted. 60.56... amazing score.

Guys, don't be alarmed that all the skaters look bigger - I think that part of that is the aspect ratio of the stream. It makes everything wider and shorter.

Gracie GOLD (USA)

Music: Hernando's Hideaway

Red asymmetric dress w/ silver details. Open back

3F+3T - stepout/hand down
3Lz
LSp
FCSp
StSq
2A - hard fall
CCoSp

Not her best skate... She has good attack though

**Macassar88** · 10-26-2012, 02:23 PM

Aww - poor gracie - fall on 3F-3T and 2A
No rippon lutz
Issue with centering on her final spin as well

**tulosai** · 10-26-2012, 02:23 PM

All Gold's jumps were or looked tilted on the stream. I'm amazed she landed as much as she did. Really she looked kind of out of control for parts of this. I wonder if she was nervous.

**gioccia** · 10-26-2012, 02:23 PM

Gracie is stunning, too bad about the jumps.

**tulosai** · 10-26-2012, 02:24 PM

I don't think the first will be counted as a fall but could be wrong.

**raress** · 10-26-2012, 02:24 PM

She did 3T-3T 3F 2A but 27 on the components is to much...inflated for the canadians as always!

**tulosai** · 10-26-2012, 02:24 PM

Unrelated to her skating in any way but Gracie is VERY pretty.

Yeah - I'm assuming so - it's her first A level senior competition. Also, everyone has off days. Hopefully she can kick butt in the FS.

Impressive skate by Osmond, I was very impressed by how detailed her choreography is at such young age. Her jumps were all preceded by difficult connecting steps / moves, which add to their complexity and GOE as well. Canada may have found its next queen on ice.
