2017 Japan Open

[xeyra]

I just read on rockerskating that there won't be a live stream. Does anyone have different info on this?

There won't be a direct stream but I'm not quite sure if this will be broadcast live on a JPN channel, in which case there could be a stream to that channel.

Edited to add:
TV Tokyo will cover this event but it will not be live-broadcasted.
The event will be aired by TV Tokyo on Oct. 7th 18:30-20:54 (JST) and by BS Japan Oct. 15th 18:30-20:54 (JST).

Kaitlyn Weaver & Andrew Poje will appear as guest skaters. Their Michael Jackson routine is the coolest thing I have seen in ice dance.

Japanese audience at WTT this year was all about this SD encore performed after their EX - they are loved in Japan in general, so no wonder about invitation (to my personal pleasure)

So how is the format of this competition? Is it like team competition they choose who to skate in SD or FD?

From what I understand, it's just FS/FD

LP only.

Actually, there's no dance in the competition. Just singles skaters. The guest dancers only perform in the Carnival On Ice gala.

You're totally right!

Does anyone have a good livestream for TV Tokyo? I can't seem to find a working one in a quick Google search...

Oh well can't find a live stream.

GO MIRAI! SKATE GREAT!

There's not going to be a live stream for JO. There never is.

Had to try anyway.

Gotcha - but I was hoping to watch a livestream of when TV Tokyo broadcasts it tonight! I just can't seem to find a stable TV Tokyo stream.

Ah well, I'll look again this evening...

That's a very good score for Mirai!

 

[frida80]

Twitter is agonizingly slow. This is what's happened so far:

Mirai - 134.69
Marin - 133.41
Alina - 145.28
Karen - 116.32

 

[Mrs. P]

Add Mai's score to that: 147.83, now in First with only Evgenia left.

 

[frida80]

Mai - 147.83!

 

[frida80]

Looks like Zhenia was perfect. Rippons on all her jumps.
