i'm loving Julia's dress

By the way, why does no one skate to the Sting music playing in the background. Desert Rose could be a beautiful free dance.

oh no, a disaster skate

Julia always SERVES. Without those random falls this would have been one of her better (best?) skates. Such a shame she just isn't able to get her jumps consistent (four falls in the Free are not unusual, just usually on the jumps and not just randomly)

How can the men skate in 15 minutes when the women aren't done? Did I mess my times up again?

I often don't understand -choreo seqs without visible errors, but this time I do. She did almost nothing.

Lots of red in the TES box but Derya actually wasn't so bad. Polishing badly needed here and there but she is on a good path.

The dress puzzles me. Looks cheesy but somehow interesting.

The Turkish fans must have a Canadian coach.

It seems time convertor in the link does not work. We have exactly the same time as Turkey, but the convertor says we are 6 hours behind.

If you bring up the live link, it provides a countdown for your timezone.

YES! She was often shown on American TV since she was the first Turkish skater. There was a huge deal made of it. Now I look around and see so many skaters from so many different countries; it is great!
