Did Shiika just do a 3-3-2 combo

Shiika was dead focused on the jumps through that, but it def worked out for her! Nailed it! But would def like to see her emote more as she gets more experience.

Beautiful skating from Alena — a big fan of that, but I’m still not a fan of this program. The music cuts are a bit disconnected.

I do like the costume though.

Agree with the first part but not so much the second. I don't think I like any of her dresses...

 

[invisiblespiral]

Shiika is pretty energetic and I liked her SP, but she has an odd jumping technique...

 

[Ichatdelune]

With that, my small hope of a bronze for Haein is gone, she was just too good... Yes, I'm a terrible person.

Shiika, fantastic! That combination jump right to the music was wonderful.

Wow, Shiika Yoshioka pretty impressed me, if anyone reached the level of russian girls, it's her.
Edit: And she is so cute in K&C

I think so too! I can't really point it out, need to rewatch her program, but her jumping technique looks unusual.

 

[Colonel Green]

Good job, Shiika.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Very nice to grab that Bronze medal!!!! :hap85::yes:

Congrats Shiika!!

 

[Spirals for Miles]

I still feel that Anna Kuzmenko was really underscored on PCS. Besides the Russians, she had the best skating skills and transitions, and man, did she perform! But only 48 in PCS.

 

[leoleo]

really beautiful performances today! see you all next week :agree:

 

[TheBallerina]

Very nice to grab that Bronze medal!!!! :hap85::yes:

Congrats Shiika!!

Really well-deserved bronze for her. Nice job :agree::luv17:

Same. The SP one is bad, the LP is a nice color but too stereotypically “Juliet.” Would love to see a more modern Juliet look for her.

I can never get tired of Ted's commentary, he should do that more often

 

[iorii]

Yayyyy we're finished! Thank you, everyone!

Congratulations, all medalists! Happy my love Kostornaia took the gold :luv17:

 

[Ichatdelune]

If Haein is clean in both SP and FS for her next event, she really might get a bronze. But still, great job and a nice junior debut, little darling :luv17:

Edit: To add, Alyona Kostornaia is going to be Alyona the Great from now on for me. Alyona Kanysheva is going to have to be just Alyona K

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Anyone gonna nerd out with me for the medal ceremony?

 

[frida80]

Yup, she's untouchable.

She also definitely touchable. Just no one here can. Trusova and Scherbakova are probably the only ones.
