Congratulation!
She got the highest PCS 62.88 in her figure skating history.
I mean she played the best LP.
I really appreciate Joannie ROCHETTE for watching her BEST LP.

Thanks for the protocals. I think both Joannie and Laura have very good jumps, on the right edge. I enjoyed Joannie's performance dispite the mistakes. Alissa didn't let her mistakes affect her too much. Mirai was quite good but i agree, she skates like she is thinking all about the jumps and does not interprite the music.

I wonder if Mirai was told to not worry about performing tonight - and was told to rotate her jumps.

She is typically much more animated than she was tonight

 

[Olympia]

Oh, rats...Alissa in fourth.

Lepisto gets silver? Hope I get the chance to see her performance.

And Mirai held up. But poor Caroline.

Alissa won the Silver and Laura the Bronze.

 

[cornell08]

Just tuned in...what happened to Caroline?

 

[Mathman]

She scored 77 in the free skate.

Hehe, Caroline can now officially be inducted into the club of B-skaters. She is no longer a contender for the U.S. podium and may not even make top 5 at U.S. Nationals.

However, congratulations to both Mirai and Alissa. Mirai now has a real shot of winning the U.S. Nationals and going to Vancouver and Alissa might join her there as a silver medalist if she can somehow beat Wagner. The chances of her doing that are not that great, but heck at least she has a shot.

The music is wrong for Mirai. Yes, I get that she is going for a mature direction but at 16, Carmen is not the right piece of music. For Christ' sake, she's still just a young lady. The music from Raymonda would have been more appropriate.

There is a judge who gave Alissa CZISNY's Transition / Linking Footwork scores 3.75.



WoW~~~

You need to stop spouting off mis-information, please.

Tara had wonderful rotation in her jumps. Nothing she did at 1998 Olympics would have been downgraded.

Thank you. It's complete crap when people claim Tara underrotated, when the truth is the opposite. A flutz and a small axel don't equal underrotation.

...And Tara's hardly the first or last skater to have edge changing issues on a triple jump, as we've seen at every single competition this season and the last two.

This sounds plausible. As I remember, Mirai looked quite crashed by all the UR marks on her jumps at CoC after what looked like a clearn, strong program she had skated.

 

[DarkestMoon]

Heh? :scratch:

I do hope the poster you're quoting meant best LP in terms of composition. If so, yes, I do agree. Samson and Delilah is probably the best LP that Joannie has had; though Firebird and Aranjuez would also contend. If she's talking about performance, no, not at all.

Did you not watch her Nagano freeskate? =/

I don't think that is funny at all.

....she fell once and had shaky-UR jumps on most jumping passes.

You said it very well.

WoW~~~

She didn't get a 3.75 at all. She got 5.75

Agreed.

 

[krenseby]

Well, I don't think that's funny either. I actually do think that it's sad and hope that she improves. Only time will tell.
