Off topic - but anyone wondering if Kaori has tried a 3A...

Sakamoto 3A training

Kaori Sakamoto (JPN) attempts the triple axel in training. with slow-mo for two attempts. Good luck next season Kaori!

Who watched this on Peacock? I kept hearing a man's voice shouting the element types in the background. I'd like to stick a quarter pounder with cheese in his mouth so it doesn't happen ever again.

Omg.....if the placements of the ladies for the USA stay the same, or if only one moves down one place, USA will get 3 spots next year for ladies!

The US women can actually drop two places and get three spots. Their placements now total 11 (2 + 9).

Oh that's right. My bad. In my head I was still thinking Isabeau was 3rd.

Should have won best costume award. Much better than Loena’s.

Loena costume is nice but is rather better with Latin rhythm like Salsa i think

 

[Joekaz]

Obviously the Korean Fed isn't very influential. Lee was clearly the best, but is 3rd, only slightly ahead of very sloppy Sakamoto and behind juniorish Levito.

By the way Nina with 3-2 combo with 66 points and 7th place quite ridiculous. She had almost the same points like Young You. Come on

Maybe the 3-3 was actually holding her back ? the UR reduces both the base value and the GOE, + she's a grand prix medalist which helps with PCS. I also preferd Young You's preformance, but the judges may have a different opinion than us.

I know, right? Also the many audio glitches through the pairs and ladies. Uugghhh!

Even in some part of the YouTube live stream I heard the same, maybe sound technician forgot mute the microphone audio of TS and just volume down instead of mute it the mix output

Reputation is the key. If you are top-skater judges tend to disregard your ur's or edge mistakes like Loena's lutz or Kaori's flutz or Eteri's students' mistakes. That's the issue I am opposed.

Kaori Sakamoto is not sloppy. Yes, she made a mistake, but her skating skills are fantastic. The mistake would've been even worse if it had not been for her outstanding skills and control.

Can someone tell me who is commentating and on what feed?

She was great , I think that was just technical elements that made her be on 4th place but is fantastic her SP, a true surprise for me

Good night! See you tomorrow

 

[ChiGal]

Thank goodness they got rid of Levito's kitchy snake program. This one is much more suited to her, not juniorish at all! Her coaching team really let her down this season, when you take that overly ornate and heavy LP costume in consideration. Glad she lightened that up too. NOT a fan of Loena, but she brought it tonight. I just wish she and her brother would stop going to Belgium dance clubs for costume, choreo and music inspiration. Was a great short competition at the end!

I'm now watching all the skaters I missed on Fuji On Demand, while getting ready to go to the rink, especially curious about Maria Seniuk's performance. I didn't expect her to be amongst the top, but always excited to watch a country mate.

Hopefully I wake up much earlier to watch more of the ladies long program live

Yes, that was annoying. He shouted out almost immediately after the skater landed the jump - so disruptive to the flow.
