2021 Skate Canada: Women's Short Program

[kmw227]

I appreciate Karen's never-ending commitment to a spiral moment, but that combo. Ugh.

 

[Jontor]

Well done Karen!! No combo today, but solid skate overall. Well done!

 

[Apple1078]

Lovely as usual from Karen.... but that mistake in the combo will be costly

 

[msteach3]

Beautiful program from Karen. A shame about the combo...

 

[Makkachin]

Nooo Karen the combo! Beautiful skating otherwise as always

 

[4everchan]

But she also coaches Aliona who's almost 10 points behind. So how does that work?

she probably has decided already who is going to win the olympics and told everyone about it...

 

[alexocfp]

Jeez, Kamila found another gear tonight. Scary.

 

[DonnaR]

Completely missed Karen Chen, thanks CBC.

I switched over the the ISU stream on YouTube.

karen with the most beautiful skating... but that combo

 

[Jeanie19]

Karen. Beautiful dress, I love the program.

 

[Dr. Jenn]

Karen is a beautiful skater, and I always appreciate her performance abilities and the fact that she actually holds her positions (always a lovely spiral!). However, this program is pretty snoozy/samey, and the combination is really going to hurt her.

Also, on a completely superficial note, I appreciate that she has nice, clean 'standard' skate boots. I found Alena's skate boots rather distracting.

 

[Skatingcat]

Technically there are so many issues with Karen but she is so elegant- I love how she moves across the ice. I am sorry she didn't have a better skate.

 

[skatefan17]

What happened in the combo? It looks like she was landing on the wrong leg???

 

[alexocfp]

Empress time now! Go Liza!!

 

[FlyingFeather]

That error on the combination. Still, I love Karen. I think that she and Satoko are miles ahead of the rest of the women skaters in artistry.

 

[Rudel-chw]

Crossing my fingers for a superbly clean program from Liza

 

[Mista Ekko]

Completely missed Karen Chen, thanks CBC.

It was a good performance actually,
But botched the second half of her combo

 

[purplecat]

Oh Karen! for the combo, but I do love that program!

 

[anonymoose_au]

Karen’s program is like an intermission for the finale.

Come on don't be mean Karen's skate is still worth watching.

I'm nervous for Liza! Can she get ahead of Aliona?!

 

[EdgeCall]

It doesn't get more obviously UR'd. If Karen could only rotate her jumps like her spins ...
