[koriani]

Christina Gao, our last hope

fingers crossed!!

This might end up like the past 4cc's for US where the ones not going to Worlds win medals ie Mirai and Caroline (except ashley won that year). LETS GO GAO.

 

[figuristka]

must say iam surprised she was not behind Osmond in the Free at least.

Oh my. Zijun is still leading! I never would have expected this before the event. Good for her!

3Lutz - really bad landing. Couldn't do combo.
2A-3T - ok
3Lo - URed, fell.
She's thinking too much. Going through the motion now.
Popped the 3Lutz. Wow, disaster.
Stepped out 3Flip.

Ok, can we send Courtney in place of her? She doesn't skate to the music at all.
As for Agnes, somebody need to stick a fork in her, and twist it a few time, she's done done done.

Seriously, I don't get the gracie gold frenzy at all. Good music for her, but she has no real artistry.

Go Kanako!!!

 

[koriani]

Kanako!! let's hope she'll hold it together!

 

[Kuan]

Go Kanako!!!

I really hope Zijun gets to stand on the podium.

They said she had a nose bleed and that may have been a distraction.

 

[Selene]

What a disaster. Gracie is just not a competitor. She can't control her nerves. Is there any chance USFS can replace her on the World team? We need 3 spots for the Olympics and she has proven she cannot deliver when it counts. I shudder to think of the messy performance she will deliver on an even bigger stage at Worlds.

 

[Orange Cat]

Sad for Gracie, that she didn't deliver. Having an off night is never fun...

So sad I missed Zijun's program! It sounds as though she nailed it!

Checking the marks, though- Gracie still got some pretty good performance marks, considering how she seemed to deflate a little mid-program!

This is shaping out to be

1. Japan
2. Japan
3. Japan

 

[starryxskies]

Kanako is killing it!!

 

[Cherryy]

Kanako 3Lz, 3L-2T, 3F, 3L, 3F-1A, 3S-2L-2L, 3T. nice!

 

[FlattFan]

Love Kanako's dress. It's simple, but very striking.

Good triple flutz.
Clean 3Lo-2T
Clean 3F
Good step sequence.
Kanako's improved so much since her junior days. Good speed throughout the program. Very expressive.
Second 3Lo, might be UR?
3F-1A.
3S-2Lo2Lo. Sal might be UR?
3T clean.

Should go into first unless the 3T = 0 since she only did 1A?

 

[prettykeys]

The crowd loving Kanako! She's having a strong skate.

 

[stickle]

must say iam surprised she was not behind Osmond in the Free at least.

Yep. Talk about inflated marks.

 

[koriani]

kanako is stealing the show! SO proud of her!!

I agree. We really need 3 spots

It's gonna get much worse at Worlds.
