Well, that's a waste of some good music.

mmm... interesting musical choices ... i fail to see the connection between the first piece and the countertenor aria...

Rino
Had some mistakes. It is like she got tired towards the end….
Like the commentator mentioned, the best skating skills he has ever seen.
Therefore, she should get 70 PCS even with jump mistakes
I have a feeling she is going to get mid 60s

It irks me so much that judges are only willing to reward PCS when someone is completely clean Like what's the point of having separate marks then.... this won't incentivise other skaters to improve their skating skills to be at Rino's level. For what, it's not rewarded

I still don't love the program but flip+combo aside that was great stuff

I feel like I’m at a spa when I hear this music.

Or at my old dentist’s office (shudder)

Very pretty dress on the bear!

 

[anonymoose_au]

[4everchan]

Chris speaking yet to another American skater for a change

She definitely wins best bear; not only pretty, but very animated.

Lol, kid dance off time.

Well, they robbed Rino like always

Xiangyi nabbed the sole spot for China. You can tell that was her goal.

Also, I have to say, they are brutal with scores if you skate in earlier flights. KMS should have scored higher. I guess that is the importance of getting a higher World standing.

Ok. Time for second last group. Just like with men, for Canada, the battle between Maddie and Sara Maude is intriguing to me.

Also, I wonder what kind of shape Haein is in. She ran out of energy during her free skate at Korean Nationals.

I expect Sofia S to do well technically.
Wakaba … the class of the next flight. I’m hoping she skates lights out. The bronze medal is still within sight for her

Does every competition have to have someone shouting during the Zamboni breaks?

Bothers me too.

I know a lot of Koreans. To our ears it sounds like shouting, but I think it’s the way the language is spoken. The first time I heard someone pray in Korean, I thought they were angry at God.
(I’ve been cussed out in Korean- and it’s definitely different). PS: I was confused at why she was cussing me out, as I gave her what she wanted. Her daughter, who was there came by later to apologize.

I think Sara-Maude's goal here is to qualify for World Team Trophy, so I'll get out my candle for that

And we're back!

I'm back .Sorry Ran out of battery in the laptop.

Xiangyi was good, is daring do with an opera her FS, means a bit more difficulty , was nice and expression was the precise for the theme.

Exactly. They do this with the men with Jason Brown. Why can’t they do the same with the ladies?
Like, Rino’s TES score was fair. But, she should be rewarded everytime for her skating skills and her PCS score should always be over 70. Even the commentator was in awe with Rino’s skating skills
If I could give you ten claps for this comment, I would.
