2023 World Team Trophy Women's Free Skate

Oh dear Maddie seems to not have confidence in finding her axis on these jumps.

Technical specialists don't like Mai. They need to go with shovel on the head from Ferdinand Toeloop

What about Lara? We should support our local serial killer

Yeah, you are right, I forgot.
Sorry Lara! You can do little dirty job for us

Maddie missed the combo, some problemes with other jumps. She has a beautiful programme. Love her choice of music.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Well this wasn't bad, but I dont think this is what Maddie wanted

Btw can you just bail on the jump entry like she did with the loop? I though they counted that as a jump or is the tech panel being lenient here?

I say she should do it during an assassin's tango. It will totally look like and accident.

Pauls' flag umbrella hat is a look!

Go Isabeau!

I don't know if Schizas is the most ambitious skater there currently is. But she sure always looks like it.

It depends on the tech panel; it's subjective. If you start the jump, it will be invalidated, so if you pick in for a lutz but don't jump they'll probably invalidate that attempt. Since she just did the 3-turns into the loop they won't call it since it's technically transitional content in. The rules about it are pretty vague and it depends on if the tech panel is really mean or not as well.

What a great way to end the season for Isabeau!

 

[Jeanie19]

Isabeau. Beautiful dress and a beautiful skate.

 

[ana]

Isabeau was amazing. I hope the judges will reward her beautiful skate.

 

[icewhite]

Her speed going into the jumps seems to have improved. Her take-off position though will likely never change.

 

[balabam]

Isabeaueaueaueaueaueau
And what about Lara's psycho program for you the next year or something even more diabolic

 

[labgoat]

I wonder what Isabeau was saying at the end. There is a heaviness to her skating as if her boots weigh ten pounds and she has to fight with all her might to get into the air. I love her for her artistic sensibilities, but am still quite worried for her future. Whoever likened her to Caroline Zhang, I tend to agree. She is a sweet and intelligent quirky girl. I hope as she grows she gains some strength and things work out for her.

 

[EdgeCall]

Oy! Behind Yelim?

 

[yesterday]

more PCS than Yelim

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

I wonder what Isabeau was saying at the end.

She mouthed "so close", I think that was about the underrotated and messy 3Lz+3Lo, she was "so close" to the perfect skate

 

[gleungc6]

more PCS than Yelim

a little surprised Isabeau got about half a point higher in PCS than Yelim, but both skated very well!

 

[EdgeCall]

Huh?! Not again!
