So 1 3A landed in total. Still good jobs! Congrats to consecutive wins from Mao-sama (yes, please save the better for Jr. world.)

Congrats Mao… she landed her 3A. So, that is good.

I’m surprised she fell on the 3S 3T. Does she normally go for 3S 3T 2T? I forgot.

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Are you allowed to do three 2A’s? I think Ami screwed up

More likely I screwed up than Ami
Actually, I thought the popped 3A attempt was a 1A but Kozuka called it a 2A
Maybe Ami figured it was a single too?

I’m surprised she is in first with a fall. The Japanese federation I really loving Ikura

Kaoruko and Ayumi's jumps often get called for urs
Also, since Novice, Ikura was being awarded higher PCS which always confused me but

There should be a mini EX for top 3 placements skaters. (But don't worry about that @tsuyoboogie if you're busy packing...enjoy 4CC at Colorado!!)

I'm watching the exhibition right now
Planning to watch the awards ceremony too (unless I fall asleep first)

Thanks! Fingers crossed for Team Japan!

I'll try to work on FS video on the plane and/or during my layover

I added some links to Men's SP videos in post #86 on page 5

I hear Kushida skated Little Mermaid program for exhibition? I wonder if she managed to smile.
