Mirai Nagasu's future prospects

I dont know, Mirai is kind of his muse. I remember the exhibition that Adam did for Ashley, terrible :no:


Oh, do you have a link to a vid of that program? Did Ashley skate what he choreographed? In any case, I don't guess every program he does will always be really good. I was just very surprised at the excellent quality of the two he has done for Mirai.
 
[QUOTE Not bad for someobdy who doesn't rotate her jumps, is disinterested and lwith an expression like a wooden dummy. LOL[/QUOTE]

Yes. I would have to disagree with the comment that likened Mirai's expression in the SP to a wooden dummy. I thought her interpretation of the music was good and her expression was appropriate for a piece like the Rach variation. In the LP at Broadmoor, I thought she looked somewhat tense and sort of like "I'm concentrating so hard I can't spare the energy to think about emoting". Of course this was a new long and she might have had some residual anxiety from botching the jumps in the short.

In Skate America 2013 she said thanks to Adam for the ex program, but I dont find any video, I guess is "young and beautiful" because in wikipedia she has two ex that season and one is from Shae-Lynn

... Mirai looked great for an early season comp. I can already seem improvements in her short time working with Tom Z (who was at the boards with her). I thought she looked quite regal out there and I think this FS has a lot of potential for her!

Mrs. P, thx for the answer to my question re Tom Z. And for all your Broadmoor posts.

Looking at the official criteria, it is hard to find fault with the decisions of the USFSA selection committee for 2014 Worlds.

Abbott: U.S. Nationals, 1st. Automatic for Worlds.
Aaron: U,S. Nationals 3rd, 2013 Four Continents 4th, 2013 Worlds 7th
Brown: U.S. Nationals 2nd, 2013 Jr. Worlds 2nd.

Gold: U.S. Nationals 1st. Automatic for Worlds.
Edmunds: U .S. Nationals 2nd, Jr. GPF 4th
Nagasu: U.S. Nationals 3rd.
Wagner: U.S. Nationals 4th, 2013 Worlds 5th, GP Final 3rd.

If I didn't miss something, these are the only results that count, with U.S. Nationals weighted the heaviest and with International senior result weighted more than junior results.

Mathman, thx for your tallies, which I hope will put these matters to rest once and for all. :cool:

Hear @mirai_nagasu attempted two 3 Axels in warmup for FS at Broadmoor Open. Could be a sign of things to come? #exciting"

Lol, was that the reason for the massive 2 Axel 2 toe? an really, Mirai? :eek:

:no: That's a bit daft when she can't even consistently rotate the other jumps...
 

What? true facts: she can't.

Throwing in a 3A isn't going to magically fix her underrotation problem with the other jumps and it's also not going to hide them from the tech panel, you know.

I don't think anyone, including Mirai or her coach, thinks that throwing in a 3A is going to magically fix her under rotation problem with the other jumps or hide that from the tech panel. Where in the world did you get that idea? I would be very surprised if those issues were not addressed by her new coach. IMO there is no reason she can't both train a 3A and address her ur problems.
