Missed the first group but very excited to get to see the rest live! It's been a while since I could watch a competition live (thanks timezones and work).

I don't live Yasmin though I find it hard to pinpoint why. Her posture and spin positions could use work but other than that it's hard to explain why I can't get into her... she does have many good qualities. For me I guess she just lacks connection.

Siraj looked technically good to me (except the salchow, obviously), but I didn't really like this program, artistically...

Don't like the Ukranian either. She looks terrified going into each jump and then deflates coming out of them even when they are landed solidly. It makes me feel like there is no pride in her skating... there is no flare after a cleanly landed jump (and I'm not even talking about transitions, I'm taking about head held high). Pretty spins.

Some years back she would have been competitive, say pre-Asada/Kim years. For me, she is just...well., forgettable. All the right pieces are there, in all the right places but....

Agreed, something about her skating comes across as awkward (? Not sure if that's what I mean)

A lot of the jumps might be UR, see tight landing.

Agree: she has all the triples, she has a 3-3, her spins are good, her steps too (level 4 in the SP), but there is something in her skating at the moment that doesn't allow me to like her... :think: Both Miller and Wang would have been able to do a lot better than 139!

It was funny how all of the "gift pickup" girls tried to run to get the black thing that was thrown onto the ice for Xiaowen GUO.

Toth may have the most awful music for skating that I've ever heard. Of course YMMV.

I swear Slater is drunk. He's just babbling inane rubbish non stop.

It's very good for skating. Changes of tempo and intensity and a lot of highlights.
