2023 U.S. Nationals Sr. Women's Free Skate

[CellarDweller]

Geez....it's really falling apart

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

The lyrics to Ava's music "Please don't fall apart, I can't face your broken heart" pretty much sums up how I feel right now

 

[yesterday]

I do not know why the hell they only gave the women less than one day between the SP and the FS!! They are tired.

why not nerves and tension?

 

[Princessroja]

Oh dear, Ava. I've only just tuned in but this seems like a VERY rough skate and a rough event in general.

 

[yelyoh]

What is on that ice? Cooking oil?

 

[Seven Sisters]

Ava seems to be getting overwhelmed by the force of Adele’s beautiful vocals. It’s hard to compete with that, I should imagine

 

[moonvine]

No amount of stuffies are going to fix that skate

 

[YuBluByMe]

Okay, that entry to the spin was niiice. But nearly everything else was a disaster.

 

[GGFan]

Some falls but Ava has a ton of talent. Great edges and she has nice pop on her jumps.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Oh dear a nightmare skate for Ava, poor girl Her jumps are so big and beautiful but her landings are so wild

 

[CellarDweller]

There are two audience members who keep catching my eye when the camera pans by them, they are wearing what appears to be shiny, sequined jackets.....one red, one silver.

 

[purplecat]

Oh Ava. So much talent there - just needs to learn how to control it.

 

[msteach3]

Beautiful program...too bad about all the mistakes.

 

[Tinymavy15]

Zeigler is such a gorgeous woman and skater....does anyone know how her practices went? I can't tell if it's adrenaline / nerves or if she just doesn't have the consistency

 

[moonvine]

I can't imagine bringing something like that to a skating competition.

It’s so weird. It’s not a Mississippi State football game or an Alpine skiing event.

 

[Jeanie19]

Ava. Beautiful dress. Not the skate she wanted. She is so much better than today's skate. So sad.

 

[yelyoh]

Zeigler is such a gorgeous woman and skater....does anyone know how her practices went? I can't tell if it's adrenaline / nerves or if she just doesn't have the consistency

Or even the warmup.

Yes they are my spirit animals. I would so rock one of those.

Yes, they certainly aren't handling the quick turnaround very well.

TV revenue thing? But I agree!
