2013 Worlds Ladies FS

Did Ashely get a new version of her costume? It looks less orange...though I really like the yellow on her.

 

[Ziggy]

Gold definitely has better SS than Li. But not so sure about the other PCS. The overall gap was definitely too high. Li should be in the lead.

And Helgesson shouldn't have lost to Leonova. :/

Ashley! You get it, girl! BRING THE DIVA 'TUDE. BRING IT ALLLLLL OUT!

2A-3T from Ashley! 2footed downgrade.

 

[Krislite]

Well, she went for the 2A+3T, but it was two footed and might get a <.

 

[lavender]

I hope it overtakes Gold!! Damn she was so much better.

This sport is sad. I don't know if I like it anymore. Li should be ahead.

 

[Olympia]

I loved reading about that. you can see the line of skating from kwan to kim, and now from kim to li.

Funny...I was just thinking that myself. Isn't it a lovely idea?

 

[hurrah]

I think the air must be getting really muggy now.

 

[dwiggin3]

Oye, odd fall on footwork...damn!

 

[Krislite]

Doing good so far!

 

[Becki]

wagner is doing pretty good!

 

[aftertherain]

This sport is sad. I don't know if I like it anymore. Li should be ahead.

Li is ahead in the free skate, but was behind in the SP. I think the scores are okay.

 

[FlattFan]

God, if she hasn't done 2A-3T all seasons, why doing it now.

 

[jamie]

Her legs turned to Jelly".........

 

[Blades of Passion]

Some strange jitters for Ashley towards the end of the program, but she did well. That's definitely enough for a top 6 finish. The US ladies have done it.

 

[Gymfan15]

Wow, so weird with the footwork! And then she nearly fell stroking to a jump. Craziness. But all in all a VERY decent performance.

 

[jan]

Not impressed with Wagner. Not enough technical content and a flutz on top of that! Tepid applause.

Strong skate except weird fall on step seq. USA should have those 3 spots in the bag. Wagner seems happy enough

FS: 61.34 + 63.02 - 1.00 = 123.36
Tot: 187.34, in 1st (out of 19)

 

[aftertherain]

................ was that a freak fall?

 

[Kissx3]

Not brilliant but she did what she had to. For 3 spots of course. Not sure about a medal.

I love that Ashley has become this solid, dependable woman. Skating is so unpredictable since she was never the best of the juniors or the one to watch out for.
