Yeah, I really hope everone can watch this evening/night as Eurosport shows all of it live. I give them credit for it and am a happily paying viewer :thumbsup:

I thought Alena looked miles better than usual yesterday. Love the new haircut and the costume suited her and the program, IMHO.

Agree. And what I remember I like her long program.

Too bad about the mistakes...

 

[Serious Business]

Cynthia, finally a real skater, in that she actually skates with intent and impetus. But after a beautiful start it was all downhill.

 

[alexeifan]

Does skate Canada only own a Rihanna cd? They keep playing her stuff over and over...

 

[Mao88]

A lot of mistakes from Cynthia Phaneuf including a bad fall on the loop

 

[Serious Business]

Should play Nelly Furtado when Cynthia is on. They look a bit alike and are both Canadian.

What is that oh so familiar music Alena is skating to?

Unfortunately, her performance does not live up to this wonderful music.

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

I'm just not a fan of Leonova's programs this season.

What is that oh so familiar music Alena is skating to?

Ugh that music should be BANNED.

Anyway Alena did decent job. She did 7 triples right?

A couple of mistakes, but she landed 7 triples

Has anyone else noticed Alena does the EXACT SAME entrance to her flips AND lutzes? Like she doesn't even attempt to make a distinction between the two..

 

[Spun Silver]

Some huge jumps but overall too many mistakes to do very well. Plus, her fw is about as sloppy as I've ever seen. Not good. But I like her new look (something like Sandra Bullock!).

 

[Art&Sport]

Maybe the music is hard to skate to, but it sounds familiar. Must have been used in a movie.

 

[snowflake]

Well done Alena

 

[Serious Business]

Alena dressed as a witch still, I see. Well, it is Halloween. Great and powerful flow to most of the skate, I love it. Except, weirdly enough, during the footwork, things seemed to suddenly slowed down and the edges got more shallow, and she seemed to focus mostly on flinging her upper body around rather than accentuate the dramatic music with her feet.
