Redemption

Aww snap, Liza's scheduled to skate at the very time church starts for me, so I'll have to miss it.

Oh well at least I'll be in the right venue to send positive vibes! :lol:

Light a candle for Tukt!

 

[firal]

And Gracie in a new dress fought for it and hangs on!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Gracie is still too windmill-y for me. She should represent Netherlands lol.

 

[ArcticMonkeys]

Well done Gracie!! She is awesome!

 

[taltaltel]

Nice skate from Gracie, rough landing on the flip and stepout on the lutz, but otherwise nicely done!

 

[evangeline]

Good comeback for Gracie even with the messy landings. Hopefully the US ladies fans can take a breather

That said, she was VERY focused on the jumps, did not perform or sell the program at all. Will probably get 8s across the board in PCS anyways though....

Good comeback, her cleanest FS so far this season. Should move her up a bit, she fist pumps...

FS: 65.15+63.08 = 128.23 (SB), 188.96, 1st (out of 13)

 

[invisiblespiral]

That was great! Yay! She needs a better program, though...

 

[gravy]

Gracie in that spiral looked so happy to be done with this program.

Next step: fire Frank and Lori. Coaching change and embrace the fact you're not a princess skater.

 

[AprilS]

Gracie nailed it!! :dance:


(though her lutz is smaller than I remember)

 

[andromache]

Don't love this program, but Gracie skated it well for once. Not perfect, but I'm so beyond happy for her! I know she gets hate for smiling through that last spiral sequence at the end....but this time, I don't care. She deserves to smile after laying it down like that.

 

[DaPurpleDino]

Her new dress must have bought her a lot of luck

 

[willdu]

Hoping all the US ladies follow with spot on performances. It's not about podiuming any more its about getting those 3 spots back.

 

[starlight97]

OH MY GOD.
Cleaaaaaan !!! I almost can't believe it

Absolutely no expression whatsoever but hey!

 

[yyyskate]

God Gracie gogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogo

 

[Kissx3]

That was a great comeback. Probably her best this year.

 

[Mrs. P]

I think at this point, she just needed to get the job done. Good job.

 

[sabinfire]

That was decent, but I'm super glad to never see this program ever again.

Was about to post the same thing.

 

[treeloving]

Gracie surely can develop herself artistically be like Kostner in the future, she has great speed and Could improve her posture even more.
