Everyone is too close to the board!! Give me heart attacks! Ohh Gracie, fight!!

 

[aa456]

Gracie clean so far

 

[jkun]

o dear. the flip

 

[tulosai]

she feeeeelllllllllll

I knew she was going to fall when she did the first hop going in. Just a feeling. And I was right :/

 

[Hanmgse]

Oh gracie

 

[Mangomango]

I really don't like her funny hand movements at the start and in the middle of her programme. Don't know what it represents

 

[OS]

Oh Shuddaup tara, this is actually pretty decent performance appropriate to the mood to the music from Gracie!!!

 

[aa456]

Nvm I jinxed her

 

[aftertherain]

I'm seriously wondering if there is anyone in this thread who thinks scores received at Nationals goes towards international (and thus World Record) scores.

(It doesn't.)

 

[tulosai]

Well, all I'll say is Gracie is simply not the performer Ashley is. But perhaps it will come with time, and God willing, better music choices.

 

[NAOTMAA]

Outside of the flip it hasn't been a bad program technical wise.....artistically however

 

[invisiblespiral]

 

[s_parks]

Seriously, it would really help Gracie if she skated to something she loved.

 

[jkun]

She is not working the phantom. .

 

[rollerblade]

I really don't like her funny hand movements at the start and in the middle of her programme. Don't know what it represents

Various styles of windmills, of course!

Well, she got rid of the giant smile that used to plague this program. That's good.

Other than the fall, I thought it was a good program.
