Boring program with nothing between elements, and rather poor quality of elements.

She had a good start, but then run out of stream. The program is nothing special, though, she has the flow, but not the expression or in-betweens.

She fast across the ice, with good power and obvious determination to succeed. It would be interesting to see if she can turn this determination into confidence and skilss nessecary to do well. But she is pleasure to watch. Good spins and decent spirals to

No power and speed. I think she had Y spin in all the spins she did, good positions for her, though the spins are rather slow. Not a disaster (well, she did fall all over the place), just very weak.

For the spectators it's better if the skater pop jumps than fell on the them, but for CoP it's the other way round... overall, it wasn't really that bad, she tried to sell the program and present that lighthearted style of the music, but as far as jumps go....

She is one of those skaters who has abvolutely no idea what the word "presentation" mean. She raise her hands, because she was told to, but the way she does it it's very clearly that being told to is the only reason she is doing it...

It was hit and miss... once she hit the jump she got inspired for a while, but then she make a mistake and give up again. Not much of choreography here.

It was just a practice run through, and not very succesful at that.

In terms of overall package it's class apart from the rest of the field so far: posture, lines, choreography, accuracy of positions in spins and spirals, they are all a cut above the rest. Speed is bad, though and jumps were hit and miss. But good overall.

She actually has one of the best basic skating skills so far, and good body awarness and lines, but that was a mess. I am no longer suprised she lost to much weaker Wieczorek at German Nationals.

The audience supported her a lot (there are many French fans here). I think she had the best LP so far, even though Karademir had better choreography and presentation.

Kudos to Alisa for delivering a nearly clean LP. It wasn't the most artistic program around, but she did her job. However, she looked really somber throughout and even afterwards, even though she had done quite enough to be happy about it.

Great flexibility, fast spins, good lines. But the jumps aren't here at all. On the other hand, I remember her from Moscow Worlds, there she couldn't land a jump to save her life, so this performance might be an improvement for her.

Generic redention of Queen suits her much better than yesterday attempt on tango. She doesn't look quite so stiff with it and in general it was rather pleasant performance. A bit of running after jumps at the end.

This was more like her: powerful, with smile and nice attack, but the spins were really sloppy.

Some jumps were great. Good lines, flow and style. Wonder what the judges will do with her, she is better skater than Marchei that's for sure, but Valentina really had a skate of her life here.

Frankly, I cannot see Meier topping it. The flow she achieves is just incredible and made me fear for her with the smaller ice surface here, the lobes on Sp are so deep that she was mere inches away from the boards at coe. The choreography is rather nice too, not a masterpiece, but well done overall and suited her well. The costume has to go, though. I'm not sure what the hell fluorescent pink has to do with Japan. Same design in other color would work much better.
