And I tune in just in time for a nasty fall

 

[Vemvane]

Rino's skating looks very fast, very fluid, and her jump landings look so comfortable, with that shock absorption through the softly bending knees. Her toe steps in the step sequence were matched so delightfully to the music, and her spins are beautiful, with some creative features. Caught my breath when she fell on the second 3Lz (bad rink monster, bad) - I hate it when their ankles roll over and the foot folds under them like that, can feel it twinge in my own ankles. The doubles in the combinations and the fall, I think, were what hurt her score most.

Liza is looking so calm and relaxed, like nothing can faze her anymore. The Empress knows her worth and doesn't have to prove anything.

Maya has a new dress!

Yaaasss Liza!!!!

 

[moonvine]

And Mariah in the 2nd group, very proud!

 

[Skatingcat]

And here comes the first group! I'm excited for this one to see who will get the silver/bronze, since gold is already a sure thing.

Go Mariah! Skate well!

Hope Loena will skate clean!

And the big question is, did she fix her dress a little?

 

[moonvine]

I had my alarm set for 630 to see the FD but then I was like why, I already know what will happen

 

[labgoat]

Maybe it's the tense atmosphere of competition? Maybe they were hoping to for better? Maybe they're tired or having resting angry face?!

Seriously, what is this? Be a jerk to Rina day?! Cripes she's not going to threaten anyone's faves.

Maybe I shouldn't have watched this event I'm sleepy and cranky.

I like Ryabova. She has beautiful posture and a lot of nice connecting steps. Not all the jumps were working today but that is understandable with her busy schedule. Respectable outing.

The big question here: did Loena fix her dress?

Tukt’s old music playing during warmup

 

[rollerblade]

Professor Snape's chin diaper is highly unflattering.

 

[Ella339]

The Tut team doctor not wearing his mask properly

 

[moonvine]

I’m happy to report I can walk without pain today

 

[anonymoose_au]

They're playing music from one of Liza's past programs

I like Maya's new dress.

Also is the Snape look-a-like holding Eteri's new dog? It looks like it!

 

[Mista Ekko]

If Maiia wants to enter the GPF higher than Kostornaia,
She needs 3rd with at least 145.33

 

[YuBluByMe]

Schizas looks a little like Salma Hayek.

Ya shoulda watched Moonvine, you would have been proud of your babies!
