Seriously? 64pcs is hella generous considering the number of mistakes she had in the program. There is pretty much no choreography, interpretation is minimal, and its not like there are loads of difficult transitions. The music does most of the work for her in conveying the theme of the program. I would put it at a 60-62pcs

I really like Sasha's SP this year. She showed artistic growth in her SP last year, too. However, this SP is more in her comfort zone. The LP is a jump drill, but it isn't a bad jump drill when everything is landed. Today, wasn't her best but I hope she blows it out of the water later in the season. I like her dorky personality. So even though her skating isn't always to my taste, I want her to be rewarded for her hardwork.
Park was spectacular! So close to beating Trusova with her wonderful clean program. iChat will be so happy. I think she is my favourite Korean lady. I’m so sad she isn’t on the Senior GP Circuit. After this performance, I hope she goes to a challenger event and delivers what she delivered at this event. A top 24 Season best score will out her in the circuit the following year.
Trusova, that is the danger of too many quads. I’m shocked that her 4S was the most solid, she won by gritting it out with her 4Lz’s towards the second half. Barely landed. But, she fought. Good not to peak to early in the season though. But, for her Grand Prix events, I would really focus on less quads so she can make it to the Finals.
Overall, an amazing event! Ice is slippery and that is what makes figure skating exciting.

Certainly not counting her out.
But she still, for me, needs to prove that she is a big game player soon.

We are all fighting over her I think someone took her arm as a souvenir. HahaAnd let's not forget the hometown hero, Gabbie Izzo, in third
But the find of the evening for me was Yeonjeong.
Good work, ladies

I think Yeonjeong made a lot of new fans, I couldn't take my eyes off her when she skated. Maybe I should watch the women more often?
Nah
. But I'm glad I saw this one.

Nah
See, I’m not all about just the winners, for the record.
Would be interesting to know why Trusova did this event. It was 6 days from the LP today and the test skate LP. I have to assume Eteri's daughter was competing here and she asked if anyone wanted to compete. Or perhaps the Skating Club of Boston(which seems ambitious) as the host wanted a big name.
I didn't watch the FS(I tend to only watch after the fact if the result is positive), but I watched some of the videos of her practices. It's probably nothing, but it would be interesting to compare how she practices with the top men. To my eye, Trusova practices many of her jumps with entrance speeds often quite slower than in competition.

Wasn't this competition part of the challenger serie a few weeks ago ?

very true, it's good for her to stay grounded and don't let it go to her head this early in the game.

My guess is she was already slated to come before she landed the 5 quads, and Boston was just lucky....very lucky to have her. And yes, it probably had something to do with Diana as well.

Her personality is my reason for liking Trusova over the rest of the Russian girls. I just love her quirkiness and authenticity.

Oh didn't know that. Thanks for the correction.
Here's Trusova's Warmup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkufKN9O2y4
She lands all her quads here. She warms them up in the order of 4Lz, 4T, 4F, 4S. 4S takes the longest to go through.
