2015 US Nationals Senior Ladies FS Jan 24

[tulosai]

I feel Carmen is not appropriate for someone who is 15 and looks 12

Have to agree. It does also not compare favorably to Cesario's. Mirai's bad fortune has kind of bummed me out but this is not doing it for me. Oh GOD now the Godfather death music REALLY????

 

[invisiblespiral]

GO KAREN!

 

[tulosai]

I fee like she's not even old enough to be allowed to watch The Godfather.

 

[gravy]

How did Miyahara sneak into U.S. Nationals?

:think:

I was just thinking the same thing.

But Chen's jumps are monster compared to Miyahara.

 

[satine]

Loud banging on the boards by her coach

 

[Hanmgse]

Karen is very gooooood

This, yes, I want to cry for Mirai!

 

[Meoima]

Oh the music drama...

 

[ranjake]

her coach SCARED me, banging on the boards!

 

[invisiblespiral]

I like Miyahara.... and how's Karen? Please tell me she's clean...

 

[minze]

Karen is very good

One thing that bother me about the 14-15 year old skaters, is that while they're so light and have really great speed, they sometime skate too fast for their music. Like thy're only focusing on landing their jumps and neglect their choreography.

 

[tulosai]

Wow NICE Spiral though, I will give her that one. This is a very strong skate. I did not mean to be a grumpypants before. She deserves credit.

 

[Sophia_D]

I am so sorry to hear that Mirai had such a hard time. I hope nothing serious is wrong.

It's too bad because she's a lovely skater, it's just not a great program choice.

Also, are the coaches allowed to yell at them from the boards? I thought that was a no-no

 

[TwinnerA]

Almost at 400 views on my stream.

Thank you so much! This West Coaster (if AZ is considered West Coast) can't wait another hour to see this last group on TV.

 

[creaturelover]

Karen is very gooooood

She is greatttt!

 

[Scovies]

WOW, Karen! That was amazing.

Same height but we had Midori Ito in the past...
