Ladies Long Program

[lmarie086]

The break is still going? I had wondered why there weren't any updates.
Any idea when they'll resume?

 

[TCTC84]

Kimmie with a terrific start! 3f-3t and 3lz-2t, and 2axel

 

[TCTC84]

missed the 2nd lutz though, oh well

 

[_Ladybug_]

Kimmie fell

I agree that nothing is certain, but sweeping the podium at Jr Worlds this year gives us an idea that maybe these ladies will do well in Seniors next year. I also can't count out ladies like Wagner and Meissner. All I'm saying is that the potential is definitely there, so it would be nice to have 3 spots next year. I'm not going to lose sleep over it, but it would be nice to get 3 ladies Worlds experience before an Olympic year.

I have to disagree about how well the Jr. Ladies who one at Jr. Worlds will do. I was in St. Paul and really, I don't think they are as good as some of the existing Sr. ladies - The only exception might be Rachell

Moving from a Jr. season or mixed Jr./Sr. season to all all Sr. season is a bit jump and I wouldn't be surprised if it took a year or two to see these girls make their full statement at the Sr. level...assuming they can bridge that cap.

 

[TCTC84]

good 3loop

 

[TCTC84]

good skate, 2 falls (lutz and sal) All in all, Kimmie most definetly redeamed herself with this performance. I'm so happy her season ended on a high note won't put her in medal contention, but great effort

 

[beep_beep]

Kimmie fell twice. But held it together this time

 

[R.D.]

One fall isn't the end of the world for her, she fell last year as well. As long as it's better than GPF it's a step up.

 

[_Ladybug_]

Despite the fall, good job for Kimmie. She looked so elegant and had lovely presentation. Good for her. Here's to a new start next season.

 

[london_calling]

Kimmie started so well but two falls Oh well, she was beautiful and it was ten times better than Nationals.

 

[dwiggin3]

I really didn't see much of a change in her jumping...was there suppose to be a change?

She rushed her lutz....timing again.

 

[Spun Silver]

Awww, Kimmie was doing SO well until she started falling. I thought it was going to be her best skate ever. She was filling up the music and her long arms were actually an asset - she had treetop arms like Merrill Ashley's. Well - at least she shaved off one fall. hwell:

 

[gold12345]

Aww Kimmie. It started off so well. And then the two falls She should be proud though for doing the flip and lutz in the beginning.

 

[TCTC84]

No, richard didn't change her technique, just her confidence.

looking at replays, there might be a few deductions. This might not score too well

 

[Wrlmy]

At least Kimmie's completed all three combos. I hope she can now forget about everything and have huge pressure taken off her shoulders.

 

[capcomop]

Kimmie with a terrific start! 3f-3t and 3lz-2t, and 2axel

I bet she takes an underrotation for the 3/3. It didn't look great.

 

[R.D.]

did she fall once or twice? I hear reports saying both.

 

[MissIzzy]

Barely two points above Lepisto. It's time to start worrying about keeping even two spots!

 

[museksk8r]

Oh goodness! I am so heartbroken!! shrugs it off but I see a bit of tears in her eyes going to kiss and cry. Brave smile waiting for her scores. Devastating tech marks! UGH!
