Is Mark Hanretty casting on site or remotely?

So wait did someone make a lyrical version of this music? Poor decision that.

 

[soccerjc77]

Glad that they keep the GRECO !! I see it !

 

[yume]

These jumps were nervous.

 

[momrk]

Okay Amber. Show us what you can do-

 

[Jontor]

Ok skate Amber! But I'm not really feelin' it...

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Well, no 3A but clean! I'll take that, honestly.

 

[Ichatdelune]

I still hate Experience with vocals and no 3A but overall not too bad, quoth Ichat the Grouch

 

[EdgeCall]

Nice performance by Amber. Snappy jumps and lots of energy. No 3A was likely a good choice. At the beginning she looked ahead of the music, maybe she should be a bit more nuanced there.

He lives in the US these days so I think he might be on site.

Aww Amber looked so sad there. I thought the last half was really good! And the 2A was beautiful!

Why it's Experience that is so popular among skaters? Einaudi has at least 50 other pieces that could work

 

[skylark]

Yohana actually spun to the music! Love it!

 

[4everchan]

amber looks relieved. good skate.... small mistakes.. but in this field every 0.01 matters

 

[Kathy1]

If there was a PCS score for "emotional rawness" Amber would get a 10.0 from me. I hope to see a 3A from her sooner than later.

 

[Fluture]

Amber has so much potential and I really enjoy her as a performer. But idk… skating to a song about "burning out" and "fire burning low" doesn‘t seem to be like a great omen if you‘re trying to land your jumps? Experience is a perfectly fine piece of music by itself, why exactly we need that "cover" version I will never know.

 

[Makkachin]

Amber had a lot of feelings about that performance by her expressions at the end . I thought it was nice to see her do well though, she looks stronger than a few weeks ago!

 

[readernick]

Well, no 3A but clean! I'll take that, honestly.

Yes, she was too nervous to go for a jump that she isn't super comfortable with... Smart choice

since i don't like his music at all, i don't care that we always get the same one.. if they start using more of his pieces... i will overdose quickly

 

[soccerjc77]

She is a powerful and a nervous skater. Her nerve make me fear just before she jump because she look nervous all time before jumping.

 

[skylark]

Wow! Such a passionate, dynamic skate from Amber! I loved that!
