2015 US Nationals Senior Ladies FS Jan 24

[Kwanford Wife]

Polina should tone down her costumes. And not like the one flower in her hair would have been enough - or even too much. Never mine two of different colors.

So true... and what is that funky clip on the back? is she wearing a mic? I won't even comment on how BORING this music & program are... I just can't.

 

[Krunchii]

Johnny hit the nail on the head, this is poor program to end the ladies competition with

 

[Amei]

Come on fall Polina!!! If Mirai can't go to Worlds, then I want Sammy to.

I'm calling it now given the politics, Polina is going to Worlds. Sam and Mirai would need to throw down some quads to go.

 

[Blades of Passion]

Ashley was good, no doubt. But that score. NO.

 

[smarts1]

Yes!!! Polina is going to be below Karen!!

 

[zschultz1986]

These scores... Russian nationals are nothing in comparison. lol...

You're right... Russians like to save their screwing with the scores for the bigger events: Rostelecom, Sochi Olympics...

I really like Johnny and Tara as commentators. I prefer them to Sandra and Scott.

 

[ozmodiar]

Karen for bonze?

Yup.

 

[Mrs. P]

I think the skaters know the range they can score intetnationally.

That said I do think the judges are being a bit too zealous and crazy.

 

[satine]

Is Karen going to medal? That would be amazing.

I think she is.

 

[lavender]

I just don't understand why Courtney and Polina have such programs. Just the wrong vehicles. Courtney should know for next year that she should skate both programs like her short.

 

[aa456]

Polina's program's kinda meh

 

[tulosai]

Is Karen going to medal? That would be amazing.

For sure IMO.

 

[aftertherain]

I'm still not over Polina being overscored at Nationals last year as you can tell.

And that was her fault?

I'm not either, but it wasn't her fault. You're just nasty, boo.

 

[lmarie086]

I like Polina's program! Shut up, Johnny and Tara!

What I will say is that she doesn't look fully comfortable with her longer limbs just yet. This was a very careful performance, but I think the music serves to help bring her skating to another level. She'll benefit from using a quieter piece like this later on in her career.

Too bad about that fall; that was one of the softest falls I've seen in skating lol.

 

[satine]

I think the skaters know the range they can score intetnationally.

That said I do think the judges are being a bit too zealous and crazy.

:thumbsup:

 

[MalAssada]

I'd love Karen to medal, but I think Polina gets the bronze.

 

[Kissx3]

Not a fan of any of this. The look, the music, the skating. But she's a kid and has the jumps so who knows what she'll be in a couple of years.

 

[juppiter]

Ashley was good, no doubt. But that score. NO.

Come on. We expect some inflation at nationals. No big deal.

 

[ice coverage]

Karen Chen is guaranteed a medal -- pewter at the least.
