Disappointing results for Brooklee - she can do better

Disappointing results for Brooklee - she can do better

I hope so too. I am looking forward to seeing her skate at her full potential because she has lovely programs.

In other news, Countries in Oceania have been invited to compete at the 2017 Asian Winter Games as a guest. Though we wont be able to medal, this is a great opportunity for Australia.

Thankyou for doing the time schedule. It racks my brain

 

[karne]

I'm only sorry I didn't get it done sooner. I didn't realise Tallinn started tonight and at such a time that people could have comfortably been watching Amelia over their dinner.

 

[GF2445]

Holy moley. Ekaterina and Harley smoked it!!!

Included level 4 on death spiral and reverse group 5 lift, and level 3 twist

 

[Princessroja]

Yes absolutely, Ekaterina and Harley were really, really excellent. Sitting in 3rd right now I think!

Video roundup from last night in case, like me, you had to be a responsible adult and sleep.

Ekaterina and Harley

Amelia

Guiseppe

 

[GF2445]

Great work from Amelia, going for the 3S. Hope to see her move up in the free.

Not bad job from Guiseppe, as well as Lucy Yun and James Thompson at Autumn Classic. Hopefully better for the free.

Good luck as well to our new ice dance teams competing in jgp Tallinn

 

[karne]

Aaaaaaaaand of course I didn't get out of work until after Anastasia and Nicholas had skated.

So here's the video and you can watch this cute Austin Powers program with me.

Going to try and sit up for the pairs and ladies (at least Amelia) but had a long work week and not sure I'll make it to ladies!

Then I'll see you all in the morning for Autumn Classic!

 

[GF2445]

Australia is going to medal!!

Well done to Katia and Harley.

 

[s_parks]

Congrats on the gold!

 

[karne]

THEY WON!

Ekaterina and Harley's great free skate

Good luck to Amelia, and I'll see you all in the morning for more pairs!

 

[GF2445]

This is definitely a shock to the system. I hope this will give them confidence. They're heading to Finlandia next to pursue the min TES for senior ISU championships.
Well done guys.

 

[janav]

Now, let's form a prayer circle and hope that they make it to the JGPF. I mean, how awesome would that be? :hap57:

 

[sk8ingcoach]

Congrats to Matt and Paris who achieved their 4cc free skate minimum tech score at Autumn Classic. Hope you can go to another event soon and obtain the short.

Hopefully will see 3 Dodds at 4cc this season.

It's super exciting! After I realised they had the FS minimum, I went back and looked at their TES from SLC...0.34 points away from the SP score! So close!

I'm not sure they can do another Challenger event since they've already done two, but there must be another Senior B around that they can get to. In January this year we had a few skaters including them go to Torun Cup in Poland to get minimums, so that could be an option.

 

[karne]

This week we have a full deck of skaters at JGP Dresden and a pair at Finlandia Trophy!

Special shout-out to Charlton who is doing the double-dip at JGP Dresden in singles and dance!

Please note: all times are now AEDT, please subtract an hour (or more) for other Aussie timezones

Beautiful job from Holly Harris today with her JGP debut. 48.18 and beautiful artistry. I can hardly wait to watch her grow up.

Edit: She's sitting in 10th place out of 38 skaters. Nicely done, Holly!
