One messy landing, but the other 5 triples seemed ok (maybe some UR). Really needs to work on speed/power

I just feel chinese ladies skaters have a case of not enough energy and a really nice layback.

 

[Shayuki]

Worlds is certainly on a level different from Euros etc.

Even some of the first free skates have been relatively competent and it's not 3 groups of irrelevancy until some decent performances.

I missed part of Ziquan because I was putting on a jacket, but her layback spin is really pretty.

 

[randomfan]

A solid skate, but her spins are pretty slow...

 

[Chemistry66]

I might... have been thinking of Junior Worlds.... mybad:

Eh, we all have those moments

TAT appreciates American passion and love for figure skating. She could not get a ticket today for her friend even as she personally begged for organisers, all sold out.

 

[bartlebooth]

I hope for some upbeat programs from the Ladiezzz. Tea and chocolate are not enough.

 

[Batsuchan]

3 UR and one DG

 

[andromache]

It's weird how China hasn't had a great lady since Lu Chen. Do all their best/grittiest ladies go into pairs?

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

GO MIRAI!! GO GRACIE!! GO ASHLEY!!

 

[Skye]

How does Zhao jump so big when she skates so slow?
Even with a cleanish skate, that was pretty underwhelming.

 

[Layback11]

Let's go So-Youn!

 

[andromache]

So Youn's dress is so pretty!

 

[Serious Business]

So Youn is dressed as the Pepto Princess.

 

[dna5019]

Oh my gosh, So Youn's next... :hopelessness: Please do well, So Youn! Just skate clean, and I'll be happy!

It's only the first group but it's already time for wine.

I had some wine before the FD on Thurs.
I'd have to have a beer if I wanted any alcohol tonight, but I don't think it would calm me down at all.

 

[Shayuki]

She lost 10 TES for some reason...

I can't, for the life of me, picture that woman begging.

I really think they should ban music with lyrics. It's very distracting:disapp:. The event looks more like an exhibition than a competition.
