2023 JGP Osaka Women's Short Program

[TallyT]

you are mixing up too many things. Miki Ando cannot save Poto. Nobody can. Sorry.

Not quite nobody..... but not Miki, nothing against her.

I want to like Billie Eilish....

 

[labgoat]

Folks I will probably not make ACI today as I have to sleep and then work all weekend.

 

[auser]

oh.. i just realised that i only work in 11 hours (instead of 7)... does that mean more skating now... or should i go to bed and watch ACI men in the morning .

Yes, more of these skating viewing decisions. Osaka Junior Men FS at 3:10 am and ACI men at 7:45 am for me. How masochistic would it be to try and watch both?

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Yu-Feng definitely did, and so did Ruotang! Hopefully neither of them got downgraded in the final protocols.

I fully missed that but its 8 am and I got rudely woken up at 7 am after going to sleep at 3am due to ACI so im not all here

With the amount of work you do compiling the video lists on top of the day-job, you deserve all the rest you can get!

When the time comes, sleep well!

Alright, here for Ikura~~

Hopefully Kaori's clean SP finally broke whatever curse there was on the Japanese skaters competing yesterday at both this competition and ACI

you can do it. i am doing the maths here.. For me Osaka men = 6am (that's a very rare happening for me. I stay away from sunrise). Men ACI = 10:45. I can do that one.

violin cover of a guitar piece... unnecessary really. but lovely skater

 

[EdgeCall]

OMG, what a fall. Did she get carried away with her own skate? Because it was awesome!

 

[skim1001]

Why can't the rink be bigger

 

[lileychristie]

Ahhh Ikura

I was just thinking "oooh Ikura is going really well, she's gonna save my predictions--" and she hit the board
Amazing that she still managed to get StSq4, though it might get downgraded I guess....

12 Ikura KUSHIDA JPN very pleasant skate to Violin based on en Aranjuez Cou Tu Amor. Costly trip on the boards at the end on an element. Neat, but tight jumps. Pretty purple red dress. Nice choreo by Cathy Reed.

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Arggghh...Stupid random fall on the end of her StSq!
Regardless, Nice skate, Ikura!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Almost clean Sp from Ikura, shame about that fall on the stsq still amazing skate from her!
she has gotten much taller since I last saw her but that doesn't seem to have hindered her at all.

I really like her short ,beautiful dress as well

 

[YuBluByMe]

Well, Kushida almost went clean. Random mistake in step sequence. Looks like she was too close to wall.

 

[lileychristie]

Haha Ikura is surprised and relieved at her score. My predictions can still be saved then

 

[denise3lz]

Why Kushida hit board in National Training Center rink.
