2025 U S.Nationals Senior Women's Free Skate

[YuBluByMe]

The Worlds team should be Glenn, Liu, and Everhardt. Cut and dried. Everhardt even beat Levito earlier in the season and she also did well on the GP. This is a strong team and Levito shouldn’t even be in the conversation, especially if she’s still injured. She’s certainly not needed to keep spots at this point.

 

[yelyoh]

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

I get the cynicism but I think you're wrong.

 

[moonvine]

I wonder if she’ll get the same tech panel as poor Lindsey Thorngren. I’m no expert, but really

Don't be silly. That's a Lindsey Thorngren tech panel, especially for her.

 

[Bluediamonds09]

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

I really felt isabeau's absence tonight, especially in the last group.

 

[macy]

I really thought Alysa had it there for a second but I'm not surprised Amber got it in the end. Thrilled for them both. It will be very interesting to see what they do with the 3rd spot...if Isabeau is healthy I think they'll give it to her since Olympic spots are on the line.

 

[readernick]

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

Alysa's highest international score this season is 197. Amber's is 215. Are you kidding?

 

[16Olympics]

That was tense! Good to see Amber pull it together in the free. I thought Sherry was a revelation.

Good podium. Amber has some tightening up to do if she is going to end her epic season on a strong note at Worlds. That 3A, though.

 

[readernick]

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

That's fine. But, she won a silver medal last year. I think the selection panel will chose her if she is healthy. But, she will have to prove she is healthy.

 

[moonvine]

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

Huh? She's undefeated this year.

 

[Jammers]

Alysa's highest international score this season is 197. Amber's is 215. Are you kidding?

Amber is the one that has had epic meltdowns while Alysa always keeps it together even not at her best.

 

[yelyoh]

See y'all tomorrow for the Men in the a.m.

Right, Isabeau should be monitored regularly and have to skate a readiness mock competition in the same manner that Nancy Kerrigan had to going into the 1994 Olympics.

 

[moonvine]

Well Alysa should be able to get on the podium by herself this time. I remember the first time, she was so tiny.

 

[TontoK]

That's fine. But, she won a silver medal last year. I think the selection panel will chose her if she is healthy. But, she will have to prove she is healhty.

Yes. Last year. But she hasn't performed well at all this season, and Sarah has. I'd say to give them a skate off at 4CC, but Isabeau isn't ready for that. At some point, you've got to go with the athlete who put it on the ice.

 

[labgoat]

Ashley sounds sick, right?

Ashley has a young baby and is finishing her Masters. No wonder she got sick. I wonder if she infected Madi and several others.

 

[readernick]

Amber is the one that has had epic meltdowns while Alysa always keeps it together even not at her best.

Alysa's best finish at a GP was 4th. Amber won the GPF and beat the world champion. We all have our favorites but there is also reality. Alysa is a great skater to send for consistency. But, I think cracking the top 5 is going to be very very hard for her. Amber could win.

 

[Bluediamonds09]

The Worlds team should be Glenn, Liu, and Everhardt. Cut and dried. Everhardt even beat Levito earlier in the season and she also did well on the GP. This is a strong team and Levito shouldn’t even be in the conversation, especially if she’s still injured. She’s certainly not needed to keep spots at this point.

But everhardt has absolutely zero artistry. The jumps are great though. But her face is completely blank when skating and her movements in the choreography are very weak, even for a junior level skater.

 

[Agent Michael Scarn]

Do they usually announce the Worlds team before Four Continents? If not, then maybe they could send Isabeau to 4CC and see how she does.

 

[readernick]

Yes. Last year. But she hasn't performed well at all this season, and Sarah has. I'd say to give them a skate off at 4CC, but Isabeau isn't ready for that. At some point, you've got to go with the athlete who put it on the ice.

She still has a GP medal this season. Only Amber has better international results. I do agree she needs to show readiness though...

They usually do.
