Livvy's transitions seem much more relaxed this time around. We won't speak of the jumps.

Edit: flip-loop! I don't even care how many rotation it was, she stood up! That's all that matters

Thanks, sequinsgalore for reporting! Although I missed most of it, I watched Hannah and it was very very good. Hope someone will upload Elizabet soon.

it is summer, you know



okay, I'm just grabbing straws here......:hopelessness:

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Thanks, sequinsgalore for reporting!

Hear, hear! :agree:

I've only seen bits & pieces of this comp and it's been tough to watch. I originally thought about attending in person since it's local, but after seeing so many skaters fall 5 or 6 times in one program, I think I'd rather stay home (or watch the livestream instead).

 

[Lipea]

Hear, hear! :agree:

Haha! I am glad there are some people here to "celebrate" this sudden FS event off-season :yay:

sabinfire, I actually have thought it was almost the same level as first two groups at Worlds or Europeans...: but this is maybe because I am too hungry for real FS competitions. I am surprised Kaetlyn did so bad today; but congrats to Elizabet, Hannah and Bradie (who performed her LP well both days)!

 

[Ice Dance]

How many R&Js are we up to this season? MCM, Roman, Han Yan...?

Nine Romeo & Juliets thus far this season:

Han Yan
Michael Christian Martinez
Roman Sadovsky
Moore-Towers & Marinaro
Bobrova & Soloviev
Han Yan
Pogrebinsky & Benoit
Shu Nakamura
Efimova & MacMillan

Thank you to everyone who has added their reports here! LOVED Elizabet's skating! Very much looking forward to watching her throughout the season/s. Also very happy to hear we have a new Willy Wonka program.

 

[mnm464]

Oh good, no music troubles this time for Elizaveta.

Thanks Mnm! Were you happy with your skates?

Hmmm. I moved up in placement, so I could call that progress.

 

[Krunchii]

Wow how great for Elizabet, now I'm really considering going to Thornhill to see her skate, she must be so proud. I'm really sad for Kaetlyn though, today was just not her day.

For the pairs I'm glad to see that Iliushechkina/Moscovitch did well, I was actually hoping they would keep the With Love from Russia program from that year but I look forward to what they're going to bring this year.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

So shall we conclude that the break out star this weekend for the ladies was Bradie Tennell?

At mnm464: I figured out who you were the other day by looking at the scoresheets and making an educated guess but didn't want to be the one to put your real name on the forum. I'm sorry to say I missed your skating by mere moments the other day but judging by the scores you did quite well. First year junior right? Not bad and only a few points shy of making the final events. Keep working and make that final next time. Thanks for all of the updates and videos
