2021 Worlds: Ladies' Short Program

[LadyB]

Love the light show, but they could have done a bit more in terms of decorating the place. Ah well, it's happening and that's the main thing.

I see Loena!

And she's wearing clothing from here in Northern Ireland!

That was some stretch that Lindsay was doing!

I wonder if the two girls were having a good gossip in Dutch while warming up...

Good warm-up so far !

 

[flanker]

Lara and Anastasiia are my favourites for this goup.

 

[Ichatdelune]

I was off during ice resurfacing to get food supplies, and apparently there was a random Yuzuru cam

 

[Jontor]

Surely Lara, Hongyi and Jenni will Q from this group...?

 

[anonymoose_au]

Man I gotta clean my apartment...but I'm too lazy to get up...

I think the lower level is nicely decorated but I guess they could have done something to the higher level stands to look less depressingly empty... Or maybe they didnt think that would show on camera and just didnt bother

By the way, I reckon we're headed for a cutoff of 56-57 here.

I think so too.

They may not. Honesty a lot of good skaters won’t!

who knows, i hope so but i wouldn't put my money on it. Lara hasn't be in her best shape lately

 

[EdgeCall]

Hongyi!

 

[Lamente Ariane]

“Lara will always be compared to Carolina Kostner” ouch... she hasn’t even skated yet.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Another group, and another adopted daughter coming up! But, I won't have any more adopted children until the Pairs.

Hope things go better for Jenni than they did for Emilea.

Anybody knows why Emmi Peltonen isn't there for Finland?

The Italians are surely not to be envied. It's like South Korea after Yuna Kim.

What happened to Alessia Tornaghi? I expected her to be here...

 

[elektra blue]

she did poorly at nationals, she did poorly the whole year sadly

There was a whole debate about that over in the Entries thread.

This is probably the best reply for explaining why Jenni got the nod:

Emmi Peltonen is injured and Linnea Ceder has not competed this season at all, so probably also she injured, Sofia Sula has retired. Jenni has a few points better sb than next on the list, Oona Ounasvuori, but Oona does not have the fs tes, so she cannot be even substitute. So the answer to your question is: No, Finland does not have anyone better to send. In men it is the same situation, Roman Galay is injured. There are technically much better young skaters growing up, in both ladies and men, let's just hope the growth spurt does not spoil their skills or interests. But none of them is not age eligible yet; we must wait at least one or two seasons. So waiting for that we only hope Valtter and Jenni could skate clean at Worlds.

Hope this helps

Japan after Yuzu and Shoma is going to be very stressful for the men
