2022-23 Japan National Championships - Women's FS

I wonder why Haruna is doing pairs. It isn't like she doesn't have a solid technical arsenal for singles.

because in pairs she made it to GPF in singles she doesn't stand a chance

You're questioning a future Nationals pairs champion?

 

[RafaelAstro]

Why no pairs? Japan doesn't have teams it's time to change that, pairs and ice dance should became popular as well

 

[yesterday]

Did they tweak Hana's costume a bit?

I hope that skate by Hana will be enough for her to make it to the JWC team (sincerely hope).

I know she has a much brighter future in pairs but there is a reason why there are so few skaters who decide to compete in pairs. I wonder why her specifically made that choice.

because Moriguchi needed a partner after Ikura Kushida bailed (to be fair she was injured) and Haruna was there and game to try?

Hana, redemption from JGPF!!!
Step out on the 3A, but everything else clean! And so gutsy of her going for 2 lutzes in the 2nd half after her lutz falls in the SP

She had to hang on onto that final pose though, almost

 

[Dawn825]

Our sunshine on ice!

Miyabi choreographs her programs herself.

 

[yume]

Good fight Hana
Woooo good score!

 

[RafaelAstro]

I hope Hana goes to JWC and redemp herself

 

[RatedPG]

Hana! Redemption skate. Low PCS score. But, fair, in comparison to Rion and Rino.
This free skate may end up being one of the top five skates of the night.

The girls only have 2 spots (the boys too) and so much competition
I think part of the reason Hana competed as Senior domestically was to actually aim for the Worlds team (or 4CC if the fed decide to send different skaters which they absolutely should)
