2023-24 Japan Nationals - Women's FS

[LazyFuzai]

Do we really think giving rotten green + randomly yellow flashing pants was a good idea out of thousand of colors?

 

[Isk]

Was it an euler before the 3S? Does it count as a transition I wonder?

 

[YuBluByMe]

Shibayama has good basics, but she definitely needs to work on her speed. Her lack of speed is hurting her rotations.

Oh no. Not this song. Mute.

Wakaba fought to the end, but it didn't quite work out.

When Wakaba is on, she is ON. She's such an enjoyable skater to watch. Tonight wasn't perfect, but there was progress made. The jumps she did well were done with superb quality.

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Good fight, Wakaba!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Did not expect that 3A. Also I guess Coldplay is technically pop but did she have to (sigh)

 

[cohkaix]

Better than NHK...but popped jumps might be costly. (and that sounds like Ted...)
