From Ricky's fb:

Perfect warmup, but let it go in the short. Get your head in the game, Dornbush, and put it out in that long tomorrow.

The colours of her costume are blinding me ;)
Looked pretty solid exept that she put her hand down in the combination...

Hmmm, not the SP I was hoping for from Artur (and I'm sure it's not what he was hoping for either) but not too bad. He doesn't need to come out sparkling anyway. I'll just be happy to see him get through Finlandia relatively intact and carry on to Skate America with a bit of confidence.

It's obvious who's going to win after all. I mean, 85 with an illegal element? Oh come on.

Where did you see that? I don't see any protocols.

Given that he usually scored 95+ with that 3A, I don't see a problem with 85 without it...

Edit: Men have to do a 3A in the SP; that's why I though karne meant the 1A as the illegal element :scratch:

Does anyone know the name of Mirais music?

Lovely :) She looked great, loved her performance, her beautiful costume and her sweet smile in the end :)

What a lovely program of Mirai! The speed compared to Finnish girls was great. Beautiful spins, coming to 2A... Gorgeus! Not sure if the combination was clean.

What was an illegal element in Yuzurus SP? :confused:

Men have to do a 2A or 3A. There's no 1A option. Illegal element. 85 when a whole jumping pass gets chucked is just...really?

I'm not sure if it's considered an illegal element. I think he would just get the value of a 1A -3 in GOE, no?

I though that was a nice start for Mirai though I still feel she's still skating though the music. I like that spread eagle into the 2A and her spins were great,

54.81 seems sort of low, though.

Yes, it's not discounted completly like an illegal elemnt usually is. 1A with -3's is pretty close to zero points though.
