so last group will consist of Bradie, Mirai, Angela, Mariah, Karen, Ashley i suppose. Not sure about Karen though if she put up a meltdown. Well hopefully not!

I'm really happy to see this.

[Yatagarasu]

Oh no, talk about unfortunate

And it was an awkward fall too, hope she's ok.

Tech Panel in Korea contains Tennel ex-coach.. SO she will be safe!

This music hurts my ears.

Mirai did well. That's all that matters. She will need like two 3A's in the free to prevent Cinderella's coronation but whatever. As long as she makes the team all can be forgiven.

I would LOVE 2 3A in the FS. I’ve been playing around with layouts for Mirai, with 2 3A.

3A
3A/2t
3F/3T
3S
2A/3T/2T
3Z
3R

The first minute would be so bare with the setups for the 3A, but that layout clean would def put her in medal contention.

only sometimes? how nice.

Tessa has such grace and elegance :sad21: Such a shame about her jumps and she needs to work on her expressions. Lovely smile but not for every program..

Tessa Hong

Combo spin could have better centering but fairly done. I admire her patience in the footwork sequence, really brings out the soprano. 3Lz+3T, 3T could be <. Sad fall on the 3F, could have saved it. Great 2A but an awkward fall on the transition right afterward. Centering on the final spin was a bit wobbly too.

Felt like she was a bit nervous going into the jumps and the mistake on the 3F really rattled her. It's a shame since I remember this program from last year and it was glorious.

Ross Miner gave Polina a high five and she's leaving.

Last group up!

i want to ban this music for the next 4 years... no more.. pls it is so cliche...

 

[EdgeCall]

I wonder why the broadcasters go at any length to show any TES information live but never bother about the running program time. :scratch:

Really? I haven't heard that operatic piece used in skating for quite a long time.

The first minute would be so bare with the setups for the 3A, but that layout clean would def put her in medal contention.

This looks very similar to Rika Kihara layout. But she puts the 3T on the axel not the flip, and repeats the Lutz not 3T. She messed up only her loop and had a MASSIVE TES score. It’s very hard to beat.

 

[BravesSkateFan]

Do we seriously have to mention Tara's OGM in every broadcast? I wouldn't be surprised if its in her contract.

 

[Lissy]

I'm glad Ashley is first so I don't have to be super nervous for too long. Just 8ish more minutes. And then a break and then nerves again for Karen.
