Thank you! I like that Nathan is the closing performance

Yay Maddie and Evan and Anna and Luca are in the Gala. Both teams have such great exhibition programs!

Weird. Hubbell/Donohue ahead of both C/B and C/L, and no gala?

 

[auser]

Thank you cleo2070 for these excellent Gala thread starters

 

[randomfan]

Wow, all the ladies are invited!

World Feed is now on air (although the stream on the Eurosport Player is still showing the blue screen).

Here is the link for the World Feed coverage on the British Eurosport Player:

Unfortunately, the Gala is not being shown LIVE on Eurosport’s linear TV channels. :disapp:

...BUT, there will be highlights later on at various times depending on where you are.

Here is the Time Schedule:

Hope this helps.

Since I haven't seen all the competitions yet, and so don't know the results, I will not be watching the Gala until later in the week.

ALL THE BEST EVERYBODY!!!

Only in Japan... :agree: It's very fitting, lol.

 

[Wilwarin]

I cried out when I heard History Maker

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

I missed Go-Chan :furious:

Oh well...Christina is making me feel beautiful....:
Those words can’t bring us down...

Rika

Tanos in the gala...such a hipster

 

[notunprepared]

When the Japanese announcer was introducing Rika, does anyone know what he was talking about axels and loops? Weird way to introduce a skater...

 

[Winnie_20]

Aww Rika, that was gorgeous.

 

[Shayuki]

When the Japanese announcer was introducing Rika, does anyone know what he was talking about axels and loops? Weird way to introduce a skater...

First ladies' skater to perform a 3A-3T combo I believe.

 

[Winnie_20]

oOOOo one of my favorites! That chair dance is crazy! It looks absolutely terrifying to me, hehehe.

 

[frida80]

When the Japanese announcer was introducing Rika, does anyone know what he was talking about axels and loops? Weird way to introduce a skater...

Most likely they were declaring she is the first woman to land a 3A+3T. When Mirai was there for NHK, they announced triple axel that before her name in the gala. Remember, Japan practically invented the triple axel for ladies with Midori and Mao landed them for a decade.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Ooh...chair drama

They are gonna need a cold shower after this

Loved Maddie and Evan!
