2015 Japan Open

simply because i think that a skater with such potential could do so much better with proper direction/packaging…

i do not dislike any of the skaters, especially not liza. do i wish for her to improve her choreo/interpretation, transitions and skating skills.. YES.. i wish for great skating with great TES… always…

if you come across me in other threads, think of me this way.. i may have favourites… but i do not dislike other skaters.. i have huge respect for what athletes go through.. i know it too well… it's a tough journey

Why would that worry you since you dislike her? LMAO

In other words you think she is lacking in almost every aspect of PCS and that she doesn't have great skating. But you don't dislike her. Okay, I get what you're trying to say.

Are there videos of performances? Can't find them on youtube....

The competition is going to be aired in about an hour.

I don't want to get into this argument, but there is a difference between disliking someone's skating and disliking a person. In my opinion that's what 4everchan is trying to say.

i think she can be amazing… but her training is focusing on getting better jumps… her jumps blew me away last year… no need to focus on that… i was disappointed that nothing was done to improve the other components… that's all… i think liza, and i thought about that when i first saw her at skate canada when she took the her first big senior win , is capable of more… what saddens me is that it's not the direction taken right now… her bolero choreo was ermmm… but then, we could be forgiving since she did so much to get her 3a back… but now, what is she working on? reach forward… you can become one of the greatest ever is what i am saying… but for now, it's not happening IMHO… that's what i am saying.

Can someone please confirm which sport agency represent Shoma Uno and Satoko Miyahara? Is it IMG?

Just who runs this competition?

 

[nocturnalis]

Satoko's pre-rotation last season was a mess. It's going to be a hard task for her when the judged dump her.

Congratulations Mao!!! I can't wait to see her program.

I know too many people are jumping the gun already but the point differences between certain PC scores are unexpectedly small.

Pretty sure neither of them have representation (but IMG expressed interest earlier this year).
Japan Open is organized by the JSF.

Great to have the fabulous Adelina back in action. Looking forward to more from Mao who is a breath of fresh air. Welcome back to both champions. Should be a good season.
