Wish Maddie had chosen a different colour. Will bring unnecessary comparison to Wakaba's costume. Also is there not more to Lion King music cut than the same identical one?

 

[LazyFuzai]

Okay, let's go for the bloodbath in group 2.

I really like this SP for Maddie, she does a great job performing it and I'm a sucker for the music. Her crossovers are maybe a little more laboured than Rion's, but she does a great job of building and maintaining speed throughout. The tech panel here has been quite lenient, so that lack of 3+3 will hurt her compared to the top women here. However, this was also not a disaster skate by any means, and she did her job to maximize points.

i love this program, and that dress is beautiful, but i'm afraid it's not going to be the only orange thing about this skate

 

[RafaelAstro]

From the three japanese here the most I like is Rion, if only she could win this, I want to see her in the final

 

[4everchan]

aww maddie...the combo.. the loop and the step seq lvl 2... will be costly

 

[TallyT]

I'm not usually a great fan of browny-orange, but that's a lovely dress. Again, cruddy sound and bad cuts makes what is pretty good music not good...

 

[Idiote]

Maddie's dress is so pretty ! I love how joyous she is in this program
Though the fact that it's almost exactly the same music cuts as Wakaba's Olympic program really forces the comparison, which, well. Isn't in Maddie's favour.

I still always think of Nicole Bobek when I see a skater skate to “Circle of Life”/“Lion King”. I haven’t seen it be performed better since 1995.

 

[TallyT]

I can't

If anyone picks their Notte Stellata they would be braver than I am...

 

[elektra blue]

I can't

same, but do we have a choice? (yes )

Don't give anyone ideas, you never know who's reading this

do i even need to?

 

[Sabsi]

Let's get ready for the second group!!!

The split Nicole performed at the end was incredible!
