AWESOME Skate Alena

 

[kandidy]

Saw her performance live in Tokyo last year, she was darn slow

 

[loop9497]

Love her reaction! Good for her.

 

[silverlake22]

Really slow footwork, but landed all her jumps, 2 step outs and a turn out though. Should go into the lead. Not as peppy as usual but solid performance

 

[ARipp42014]

Not bad for our Russian Roxy!

 

[Layfan]

aww, it's going to be like the day after x-mas tomorrow for this girl. She looks so excited about being in her first Olympics.

 

[Morning Glory]

Gooooooo Akiko!!

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Go Akiko!

Leonova is not as into-her-performance as usual

Anybody think Carolina's dress is more suitable for Leonova's program?

Yeah, didn't think her costume reflected the Chicago theme at all, not sure her routine did either except for the step sequence.

Need to kill my neighbor now. I can't even hear from television. I started to have migraine now

Can't imagine you are the only one in Tokyo watching skating. Get a couple of your neighbors together and knock on his door. Maybe someone could invite him to watch skating with them.

Go AKIKO!!!
Gotta say she has one of the nicest change of edge on her spiral

Anybody think Carolina's dress is more suitable for Leonova's program?

No. Hers is the worst one of the bunch, even for a so called "figure skating dress", not to mention that there's absolutely nothing in common with Chicago. This theme is the easiest one to think up a dress for- flappers of the 20's- especially since it wouldn't have to be stylized as dresses back then were about as short as figure-skaters wear anyway. I mean they could have made this exact same dress and she'd have looked fab: http://www.sptimes.com/2003/01/02/photos/wk-film-chicago2.jpg

Akiko you are soo pretty and beautiful skating

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Akiko - one doubled, on wonky landing, but I love her. Her footwork is amazing. The judges better not dump her.

 

[R.D.]

She's having a great skate- but I keep losing the feed! Is this happening to anyone else??

 

[kandidy]

Very spunky and energetic step sequences

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

OMG! Go Akiko!

 

[Hsuhs]

Well done, Akiko!
Showed some personality too.
