2025 Skate Ontario Sectional Series | Oct 16-19

[saine]

Laiu/Haubrich - lose sync on the combo and looked like the solo jump too. Lift fail, she looked a little lost when that happened But it's part of the learning process. Second lift worked out better. Not as solid as they were yesterday.

Free 74.96, total 126.17

I need Pj Kwong to interview more people than the sales manager for Jackson Skates for these ice resurfacing videos.

Senior Women Free is starting. I probably won't comment too much on the first group.

Monica Finlay withdrew.

 

[RatedPG]

I just woke up.

Watching GP France Ice Free Dance while you follow the Senior Women!!

I wonder if Meagan will do better in her free skate. Also, good luck to Cristina in the second group

 

[saine]

....okay, wait, Monica Finlay is skating now? Why did you say she withdrew, announcer?

 

[saine]

Or they overlaid Monica Finlay's name for Hayley Maguire? She had a good free skate.

Second warm-up group on the ice now.

 

[saine]

Natalie Roccatani - pretty solid from what I saw, one popped loop. Free 88.03, total 130.41 into first

 

[saine]

Megan Woodley - Great opening sequence! First half jumps all good! Fall on first jump in the second half, and then second jump. I cursed you Megan, sorry Only two combos, but that's something to work on for Graz. She was on fire in that first half.

Free 107.29, total 152.28

 

[saine]

Natasha Hewitt - free 71.2, total 116.75 into fourth

Jessica Rousseau - some issues with the first jumps, but she got stronger after them. Free 85.73 , total 132.75 into second

 

[saine]

Cristina Lyons - Fall on what looked like a loop. And then fall on the first jump in the second half. I enjoy watching her compete, she brings a nice maturity to her performance. Free 90.83, total 138.96 into second

 

[saine]

Bella Jia - 3S-2A-2A opening is good. And then I get some buffering from the stream. She's landed the jumps in the first half. Random fall going into one of her jumps in the second half, maybe it made that jump a bit short. Other than that random fall, it was solid.

Final warm-up group is on the ice now, they mispronounced Lulu.

Bella - free 98.99, total 149.40 into second. Megan still leading.

Are all six ladies there?

They are

 

[saine]

Katherine - new costume is sparklier. Doubles opening jump. She does have a -2A-1A sequence that was partially blocked. Fall on jump in the second half. She is able to get a last minute combo onto her closing loop. Not yet at full difficulty that she was at last season.

Free 106.20, total 157.76 into first. Good climb by Megan

 

[saine]

Uma Zagele - opening jump had a bit of a lean, but she landed it. Turn on the 2A combo and falls on the second jump. Another step out on a landing. Another fall. And third fall Gets it together for a combo. Not as good as the short, but this was better than her free at Wild Rose.

Free 71.78, total 123.86 into seventh.

 

[saine]

Lulu Lin - First half jumping passes looked good. Sequence in the second half wants to get away from her, but she holds on. Please give her Warsaw Cup, I think there's a Junior competition there

Free 108.22, total 162.98 into first with three to go.

[saine]

Elise - fall on the second jump and third jump. Steps out on 2A. That's Lulu on the podium. She couldn't afford that many mistakes.

Free 76.62, total 131.96 into seventh.
