Nope I was wrong. But great podium!!!

 

[GGFan]

From a strategic point of view Amber has stronger potential to podium at Worlds so it's better for her to go there as U.S. champion.

 

[Jammers]

Yeah let's just give it to Amber. Booooo

 

[auser]

Congrats to all the beautiful medalists and thank you to all the skaters!

 

[readernick]

I enjoyed Sarah, Amber, Bradie and so many others, but I miss Isabeau and her classic programs.

Me, too. She's lovely.

I wonder who will be sent to Worlds. My feeling is it will be Amber, Alysa and Isabeau if she is healthy enough... I don't think Sarah did enough to warrant being sent and Bradie certainly didn't

 

[museksk8r]

It was the spin...

And that UR 3flip and her lower base value compared to Amber.

 

[labgoat]

So many expectations and pressure on Amber. She weathered the storm and achieved her goal. She is ready for Worlds now.

 

[yelyoh]

Do not chose Bradie over Sarah!!!

 

[Jammers]

From a strategic point of view Amber has stronger potential to podium at Worlds so it's better for her to go there as U.S. champion.

Does she really though she's just as likely to finished 10th again.

Not one person skated lights out......i found this a disappointing night in skating. And weirdly, the triple-triple seems to be harder to complete cleanly than it was in years past.

You don't defeat the Grand Prix Champion at Nationals...

Amber Glenn remains undefeated!

 

[yuumagical]

Wait a sec...the amazing Amber actually won?!?So proud of her...but proud of the other medalists too, they all had performances that were wonderful in their own ways!

 

[yelyoh]

Oops I forgot Isabeau.

 

[GGFan]

Does she really though she's just as likely to finished 10th again.

She won the GPF and has a 3A. Whether she does it or not is up in the air but she definitely has potential to be on the podium and even win under the right circumstances.

Bradie made the job easier for the committee that picks the World's team, in my opinion.

Isabeau wants a spot on that team. Had Bradie medaled, the committee would have to decide which former national champion to bump off the team, for another national champion.

with Bradie finishing 4th, I can see the committee bumping Sarah, and giving the spot to Isabeau, making the team Amber, Alysa and Isabeau.

Before this event, I was not in favor of sending Isabeau. After this event, I'm still not.

Ashley sounds sick, right?

She sounds like she swallowed a hyper active parrot.
