Can't believe they sent Siraj! Didn't even realized until I see her name. What happened to Angela? That girl is the future of US figure skating. Her jumps are massive, and she has decent artistry and some fight in her. She can definitely be polished.


The rules are what they are. I do not want a Star Chamber deciding these assignments. The only thing is, it seems to me that Wang was hosed at nationals to some extent.

Lipnitskaia made a mistake, too. Courtney definitely has chance to place over both Russian ladies, Radionova and Lipnitskaia:)

Compared to Anna, Elena definitely is overscored.

Elena completely missed an element but the rest was very good. Anna had mistakes on many of her elements. I don't think Elena is over-scored.
Julia missed the combo. Bad day for Russian girls

The USFS has their head up their up know what. They only go by what happened at US Nationals. Siraj finished ahead of Wang and Miller so they get to stay home even though they both went to the JGP final. In fact Miller medaled at every event and it got her nothing. This isn't how you develop young skaters.

Do they? Jr champ didn't even get to go.
Siraj finished ahead, which is ridiculous. I was not impressed. There seemed to be no rule when it comes to picking jr ladies, so why not send the biggest ones like Angela. Hannah is ok. I'm ok with sending/not sending her. But would send her over Siraj.

Bad day for costuming as well. Never thought I would see so many garish unitards in one competition.

This just shows no matter how good and talented the Russian ladies are, they have to bring it. The same scenario could very well happen at the Olympics. Competition is competition, we should stop proclaiming the next Olympic champion

Well, I haven't seen how good or talented the Russian ladies are yet. The senior girls are still struggling. The junior girls haven't gone through puberty yet.

It makes me wonder, what happened to top girls? Courtney, Elena and Julia all made a mistake. I'm surprised to see all of these girls having a bad day.
