Oh no. Was so hoping she would come out strong.
So was I. Another reason I wish we had received reports on how she's been practicing. Has she possibly been injured and had her training interrupted? With Lambiel, you'd think she'd be getting points for her spins. She must have missed her combo and something else to get a deduction.
 
She popped her 3Lz, fell on her 3Lo, and did a good 2A according to someone at the rink who DM'd me on Twitter. They also confirmed that she skated to East of Eden.
Does this event have a free skate? I hope she'll have a chance to end on a positive note.

There is a Free Skate event for senior ladies but she didn't sign up for it. I think that was a smart choice considering she just flew back from Champery last week and hasn't been doing well ever since she came back according to someone I talked to.

I wonder if Gracie will skate at the Philadelphia summer competition. Some GS'ers emailed/called IceWorks to see if it was taking place this year, and it is, it's just not an international competition due to Covid. I think that it would be pretty likely if Gracie skated there since IceWorks is her home rink/club.

I definitely think she should. She's clearly still struggling with nerves and the more times she can get in front of the judges and a crowd, the better.

It’s her first event. She’s a fighter. I’m sure she will work on her mistakes and come out swinging. These small comps are not what she’s about or is used to.

I will cheer for her no matter what. If she's on the ice, I'll always want the best for her. I worry about her self esteem and I hope she puts this SP behind her and moves forward in a positive way.
 
When is the Philly Summer Competition?

July 27 to 31. The tentative schedule:


I would have gone if it were not a club comp, but a close to two hour drive for me for a club comp, alas I am not that hard core. I have done it for the international :) And if the senior men are scheduled for ten minutes, well, there goes my main interest.

Senior ladies are more, (ETA: more time scheduled )so it is possible Gracie could skate. :unsure: She has not in the past, despite training at IceWorks.

To be fair...the men’s short is 50 minutes and the ladies are 4.5 hours 😳! I imagine there will be some scratches, but that’s a massive event!
