Here are my babies, I hope @Seven Sisters likes them better after seeing them in person.

 

[moonvine]

No, I guess the asymmetrical skirt thing is just a style, Kaitlyn's got one on too.

 

[moonvine]

Oh my God they were so close to those people...and one of them was on the phone.

 

[moonvine]

My Gracie is on the ice! That USA jacket looks great on her! Amber is there too. I'm going to sleep after this warm up group. For those who haven't seen Amber in person, she's such a powerful skater and it really comes across on that rink.

 

[moonvine]

They're going to keep me from my sleep as long as possible. Eliza is on the ice now, followed by Nicole.

 

[moonvine]

Nicole will be followed by Ekaterina of Poland. Gracie has on black mittens today...hrm...

This cover is dreadful

 

[moonvine]

This cover is dreadful

so many are.

 

[moonvine]

Amber I love you but another dreadful cover?

 

[ptvvibezz]

GO GRACIE!!

 

[Ic3Rabbit]

I hate "hit the road jack" and esp the fact that everyone is skating to it nowadays. Ban this track....

 

[moonvine]

Man Amber is aggressive and looks great. and lovely Ina Bauer. Spins are beautiful.

I haven't see this type of fire from Gracie during a skate since her Firebird in St. Paul

 

[moonvine]

Good practice for Amber. Come on my Queen. That combo, so easy. Ah a pop. Get it out in practice. They choreographed this 2.5 weeks before Philly. Oh my God the jumps are fabulous. She is just heartbreakingly beautiful. I'm dying to see how this has come along since the beginning of August.

She's 'just...I can't even. I cannot even. I may never be able to even again. OK I've seen what I came here for, sleepy time.

I had heard she was skating pretty well leading up to this. Her jumps definitely look more like the “old Gracie.”

Where was Isabeau?

 

[katymay]

This cover is dreadful

almost criminal actually.

 

[katymay]

Where was Isabeau?

Not there, but she is very used to this rink and the ice.

I thought Gracie looked great! Well trained, fit, great energy. Didn't see all the ladies, but thoroughly enjoyed her. Audience was very supportive. Saw Koshiro Shimada and said hi and wished him good luck. Lots of people just marking their jumps. Still fun to see everybody. Madison and Evan definitely looked like a couple.who have been skating together for a long time...Kana and Dai got quite a hand!
