Gracie was fabulous! 3flip/3toe, 2a, Rippon 3lutz. She earned over 62! Becky Bereswill seems top have greatly improved. She eared 50.?? Points for her sp that included a 3lutz/2toe, 2 axel, and 3 salchow. I also enjoyed watching Amanda Dobbs. She scored in the low forties, but I thought her presentation and skating skills should have earned her more points.

It was a disappointing sp for Yankowskis/Reagan. They missed their throw and Reagan missed his triple toe. Hope their long goes better!

Good to know Gracie is "breaking in" her SP after a less than perfect outing in Milwaukee to start the season.

Does anyone have results yet??? or know where they will be posted??

Welcome to Golden Skate, expressionbiz!

Post long & often!

 

[dorispulaski]

mskater93, I'm interested to hear that Gracie landed her Rippon triple lutz here, too.

 

[Jammers]

Is Gracie going to leave the Rippon triple lutz in for competition? I never liked it when Rippon did it it's just to showy for me.

Thanks for sharing, Arianne - I hope you will post more first-hand impressions/highlights!

Does anyone have results yet??? or know where they will be posted??

I'm compiling all the results I receive here: http://unseenskaters.wordpress.com/2012/07/25/2012-skate-detroit-results-in-progress/
The official results will be published after the competition, hopefully next week, here: http://evt.sk8stuff.com/lister_event_detail.asp?id=4475

Is Gracie going to leave the Rippon triple lutz in for competition?

I hope so! She can get extra + GOE if she executes it well.

 

[Jammers]

I would rather that Gracie work on her lines and relating to the music she is skating to then something like the Rippon lutz.

Too late! No reason why she can't do both.

I heard Alex Johnson landed 3A, 3F+2T & 3Lz in his winning Senior Men's SP to Gershwin's "Concerto in F" for piano and orchestra. He will debut an "Eleanor Rigby" FS tomorrow.

I went to the Senior Ladies B competition last night. It was a fun event. Only 13 skaters were in the group. Gracie Gold was first with 105 points. Kaetlyn Osmond was second with 90 points. Becky Bereswill was third with 80 points, and I didn't see Kiri Baga skate the LP.

 

[mskater93]

good debut score! I don't like the long as much in practice as the short. The short is much quirkier and more "Gracie"

 

[Buglady]

Great job Kaetlyn!! Good luck in the final!

I didn’t think the music suited her, especially during the step sequence. As for the jumps, I could be wrong, but I thought she landed 3Lz-3T and popped the second lutz. Do you know what her second jumping pass is intended to be? I couldn’t tell because it looked (to me) like she didn’t execute it during both the warmup and competition. She didn’t attempt 2A-3T, so I thought the second jumping pass might be a new triple-triple sequence that she didn’t execute?

 

[nylynnr]

Gracie's second triple-triple was a triple flip, half loop, triple toe. She stepped out of her double Axel and did not try the sequence. She doubled her second intended triple Lutz.

Selene, you watched Gracie Gold's Senior Ladies FS B qualifying skate on Friday, right? Thanks for your report! nylynnr is referring to Gold's Final round FS on Saturday. There are 3 Skate Detroit articles up on IceNetwork about Hannah Miller edging out Gracie Gold in Saturday's Final, Gold's 'Rippon Lutz' and a summary of Senior Pairs/Men, as well as several off-ice photo galleries.

Senior Ladies Final FS (11 competed):
Hannah Miller 111.77 [60.95 TES/50.82 PCS], Gracie Gold 110.60 [58.39/52.21], Kaetlyn Osmond (CAN) 100.03 [52.52/49.51 -2], Kate Charbonneau (CAN) 91.63 [43.93/47.70], Gabrielle Daleman (CAN) 85.31 [47.01/40.30 -2], Carly Gold 85.25 [44.02/41.23], Becky Bereswill 79.32 [37.38/43.94 -2], Karina Johnson (DEN) 77.91 [39.49/39.42 -1], Madeline Koehler 74.78 [36.07/40.71 -2], Nina Jiang 73.98 [33.95/41.03 -1], Amanda Dobbs 72.44 [35.33/38.11 -1] [WD: Lauren Dinh]

I've copied out all the results photos that were sent to me (Juvenile-Senior) and posted them in my blog (link is in post #27).

2A+3T planned, yes?

 

[mskater93]

Not if there's a 3Lz+3T and 3F+1/2Lo+3T

Thanks for posting these. Great job in the long program. Let us know when you know more at Wild Rose also, please.

It's interesting to think that if the rumours are true there's at least a possibility that two Canadian champions this season might be skating to Carmen. There might be a few comments from some posters on this board and other boards if that happens!
