RIIIIIIGHT behind bradie.

 

[ozmodiar]

Really close, slightly behind Bradie.

 

[frida80]

This score is still going to be huge. Use this stinging moment to nail it in the FS, Mirai!

 

[twirlingblades]

Was her 3A < or clean?

 

[Yatagarasu]

Ok they called the combo clean, phew.

Higher TES than Bradie ... come on now, give her the PCS, give it to her!!

 

[evasorange]

SHe was performing!!! Pls pls go in to first

 

[Jammers]

This shouldn't beat Bradie.

 

[ks777]

Not that bad from Mirai! so relieved.

 

[leafygreens]

I hope Mirai got the monkey off her back in the SP and can land a clean one in the FS.

 

[Seren]

I'll take that skate for Mirai! I think not doing the 3A perfectly made her mad for the rest of the program.

 

[skatespin]

Okay not 100% perfect, but i'll take it, Mirai is still very much in the running, I don't think USFSA will want to leave her home this year with her potential tech. I honestly feel like she's 1000x more nervous here than she would be at the Olympics.

 

[Maribelle]

Mirai looked pretty. I was so nervous.

 

[Lissy]

Drew is such a cutie.

 

[frida80]

By me estimate she should be between 74 and 75.

 

[twirlingblades]

Not sure if that will beat Bradie? Idk how they called the 3A

Mirai Nagasu

Step-out on the 3A (but still got 6.3 points on it). Nice comeback with the 3F+3T which I think was well-rotated. Good spin. Solid 3Lo. Much more emotion in the footwork sequence, finally getting into the music. A bit unstable getting into the layback at the end but still very strong.

I felt that she was a little tentative on the 3A but she was fully rotated on it. She was very focused on the rotations, so I'm glad she got more emotional with the choreography after the combo and especially the footwork. She should still score high with the 3A despite the step-out. I'm glad she kept this short program for the second year.

 

[OS]

Crowd desperate trying to give her extra PCS boost, come on be kind judges.... US ladies has a 3A

[sabinfire]

Two-footed but rotated.

 

[BravesSkateFan]

It was all the way around.
