$$$$$$$$$

 

[glorybox6]

The way the announcer keeps saying "thank you" sounds hilariously insincere.

It's * very * Mean Girls.

 

[viennaskater]

Yes, the hand! Helicopter tanos with the hand horizontal are almost alright with me. But what on earth does Sotskova do with her hand? Does she really think that looks beautiful?

No it doesnt and why doesnt her coach REALiSE??

 

[Alchamei]

no she's above Loena

I know, but Leona beat her in FS!

 

[BabblingBrook]

Gosh I'm still so in love with her 3T3T's

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Makes a beautiful Debussy music into a complete snore fest.

I love the simplistic and classicaly slow evolution of the program. It unfolds so subtlety and has very under exaggerated transitions. It’s a great change of pace IMO compared to some of the overly extroverted and jam packed performances. YMMV. .

 

[disco_dannio]

My Goodness Daleman, that was possibly the best 3-3 toe combo I've ever seen. HUGE distance across the ice, PERFECT landings, best she's ever done.

And a 2 lutz... *sigh*

 

[xeyra]

Gabby... after that stunning combo you go wobbly.

 

[gioccia]

Seems like they still were quite lenient with Sotskova. I personally feel like I would have called every single jump UR, apart from maybe 1 or 2 and the doubles. Well, I saw both 2As as UR also.

What abou Bradie? You could SEE them, but they were not called

 

[moriel]

Pauvre Maria. Such a lovely, well spoken young lady. I hope she can fix her UR problems.

I'm not very, very worried about the calls for my darling Satoko.

I dont think you got to worry - see how Satoko will not get a single call.

 

[Colonel Green]

Oh dear, a bit rocky to start. Hang in there, Gabby.

 

[Mista Ekko]

Gabby will probably lose a spot to Wakaba as well

 

[Alchamei]

Gabby is shaky. No medal for her again.

 

[MissBeeFarm]

no she's above Loena

Below Leona in the FS, though.

 

[gioccia]

Gabby has urs... will they be called? Judges are very choosy today...

 

[disco_dannio]

Getting job done. 3 flip, iffy, 2nd 3z good, combo with 2t&2loop. 3 loop maybe UR?

 

[Shayuki]

What abou Bradie? You could SEE them, but they were not called

I think Bradie URs a ton also but I don't think it was as jarring as with Sotskova. Sotskova's rotation is in literally slow motion so you can't exactly see any kind of an illusion you might with Bradie.

I really think this is Sotskova's last time here. With a performance like this she's too much of a risk.

 

[schizoanalyst]

I was hoping for a stronger skate from Gabby but I'm glad after Pyeonchang that she could put something out there she can be proud of. She showed so much fight.

 

[ancientpeas]

Gabby was so heartbroken in Korea. I'm not sure I can take that again.

Ladies is the hardest to watch for me because of all the sad faces and crying.

 

[Sackie]

Gabby will drop behind Bradie too!
