I think Sarah and Bradie are fighting for the title of 4th best skater from USA

The Olympic team for USA just seems so decided: Amber, Alysa, Isabeau

It really does at this point. But ice is slippery... you never know what will happen if you're first alternate instead of second. And it's likely that at least one of those three will drop worlds, and certainly 4CC, so that's a nice shot at medals for 4th best USA right now.

Ugh, I hate it though. I love all five of those skaters and want every single one of them to go to every single thing.

I have met my least favorite program of the year. I know that she is trying to be unique and carve out a little niche for herself, and I've absolutely give her credit for challenging herself with a program like this. But I did not like it at all ... too quirky and weird.

mine remains Grassl's. but she's a close second

I have nothing against her, it's just looking at her legs in short/free it's just feels like wooden sticks.The movement is awful.Since there is no more Seoyeong Wi the tittle is her

Ouch... still a bit uncalled for I think. However, I do agree that her motion isn't particularly fluid all the time, and she could definitely use bigger patterns and more speed. People this year have been labeling her the savior of Canadian skating, but I think objectively speaking her only strength would be consistency, if she was able to develop it. Otherwise, her skating skills and noticeable lack of speed are holding her back. But I am definitely cheering for her with regard to the triple axle and who knows, if she was to hit it in a program perhaps it would give her the super charge speed and power that she needed to do something really special.

Bradie with a suited dress

Good grief, what the heck is Bradie wearing?

 

[4everchan]

Is Sarah speaking Russian?

I heard only half the convo... once he spoke Russian, she answered in English... then I didn't hear him... and she answered again in English... so maybe she does understand some basics ?

Which Grassl program? I thought that the Billy Elliot one was hilarious because of all the voiceovers referencing good technique and stretch and posture etc. It was just about the most oxymoronic program ever, and only made sense if he was trying to do a parody of it lol.

 

[discodisco]

Apparently Lara is skating to the Jaws soundtrack?! This could be awesome

 

[LazyFuzai]

Wait Mone again with different dress? Why they make it worse and worse for her?

he's done worse this year... it starts with "the pope is dead" voiceovers, he is a bishop... and suddenly, after landing a loop, he reveals a white shirt... and he is .. the new pope...

It is - watch for her fins during her camel spins. There is a cool feature in her fanfest about the program

Oh right - I remember now. He skated on one of the first two grand priests. I think I was just trying to block it from my mind

* edited - Grand PRIXs, not Grand priests, although that kind of does fit his music doesn't it lol?

Bradie is doing another version of The Mission.

 

[museksk8r]

Wow, I really love the color of Yuna’s dress! Oh no, a very unfortunate fall on the opening Lutz.

 

[jorge2912]

ouch that fall of her 3 lutz !!!

 

[museksk8r]

Not sure about the rotation on that 3S.

As much as La La Land might be overdone a bit, it really is such Perfect music for skating with the changes in music style and character and whatnot. Some of my favorite programs I think by Nam and Liam Firius used it
