I think Mao is the most gifted layskater! I wish her the very best of luck!!! If it wasn't for age, she would have become Olychamp back in 2006...

Just out of curiority.. was Mao in 2006 strong enough to beat Sasha and Arakawa?

YES... she already beat them earlier that year, and it was easier to beat them at the Olympics when they both made mistakes. remember Mao had a consistent 3A, and a 3/3 back then and her flutz wasn't penalized. Actually Yu-na with her 3/3 could have probably medal as well
Oh my, why all this. .... Everyone of them deserve to have their best nights. I am lucky to be a fan, to sit and enjoy what they have to offer from years of training. ...So everyone just chill out and enjoy the skating and try to stick to talking about skating.
Over 100 posts and 8 pages and the competition hasn't even started yet????
I guess this will definitely be a thread to skip

Just when I was about to say that I love Miki's new SP dress, I saw that huge cross.. I mean, do you really have to have 1 meter-long cross if you skate to REquiem?? Doesn't this piece of music speak for itself?Miki's new SP dress: http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/0dzc02r3oWfd7/x610.jpg and http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/08Ql5ogcRd5Jo/610x.jpg.

I love them both!
I lost some respect for you. What would you know about her personality? Do you know her personally? Do you even understand Korean? Don't judge people that you don't really know.
I am very concerned about Joannie. I can see that her SP music might be a problem for her right now. I mean tango is neither a happy, soothing music, nor sad and emotional, which she could connect with better in such circumstances.. Such 'easy' tunes might be easier for her to convert to a tribute. Tango is very energetic and passionate, and such mood will be very difficult to pull off for Joannie at the moment... I am even wondering whether she may feel that her SP music is totally out of place right now.
Lets hope that she does well!!! I will keep my fingers crossed.
such extreme situations often enable people to get even stronger.. i don't think she doesn't even feel the pressure now.. she just wants it to be over.. and i think she could do pretty well here!! she will probably skate in trance not thinking about anything which can be an advantage.
i only hope she doesn't have a flawed skate and gets good marks for it... if this is the case i don't even want to imagine what people are going to post here after reading the first 8 pages of this thread...
Can someone post the hours of competition in Vancouver so i can arrange my zombie time?

Thanks for the times. I may try to get up for Cynthia Phaneuf and rest after that.
Why would you have respect for me in the first place?
:indiff:
Mao seems fine with her 3A, so is Yuna with her 3-3. I'm wondering if Miki goes for 3-3 in SP.
I liked Mao's pink dress better but this one is not bad. It's just that she always looks angelic in pink.
Re Miki's dress, I like the colors. She looks nice in strong colors like red, orange, and blue.
I wonder if Yuna also changes her dress.
Hope Joannie is okay.
Mirai - she's been pretty funny in interviews, sounds very relaxed and happy. I read her interview in a Japanese economic newspaper, citing her comments that she wants to do her best against grown-up skaters or something. But her Japanese is not perfect and she used the word, "Toshiyori (elderly)." (The paper was an economic paper and was classy enough to correct her misuse of word and put "elderly" into parentheses p Perhaps she meant "To-shi-u-e (older)" instead of "To-shi-yo-ri (elderly)"?)
