2023 Skate America Women's Short Program

[jgg220]

Glorious to see Chiba live! Her step sequence was worth on an Akiko Suzuki program.

Wow Mone, wow!!! Her previous competitions this season had been quite a disaster, so I'm not expecting much here... very well done for proving me wrong

Her underrotation still worries me though. I really hope Hamada will be able to sort that out.

[CellarDweller]

that was a great skate for Mone! She should be proud of herself!

 

[FlossieH]

I thought her score would be a bit higher.

 

[EdgeCall]

Scoring is truly low. I hope they keep it that way consistently at least.

Glenn out there giving Vasiljevs a run for his money.

 

[Jontor]

Question...will we ever see Amber landing a clean 3A?

For a minute there, I thought Niina was Anastasia gubanova

 

[lileychristie]

I loooooove Amber's bodysuit so much

I like that the cut of the shoulder and the pants are a bit more masculine. She looks so great in it.

 

[EdgeCall]

Please don't look so depressed, Young.

 

[yuumagical]

Amber Hope she gets a lot of good energy from the home crowd!

Also hoping Young and Katya do well!

 

[EdgeCall]

Katya skating to Kill Bill is quite an image change, isn't it?

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Loena is “sharp as mustard” apparently
