2025 JGP Baku Women's Free Skate

[FlossieH]

Sounds like the tech panel are butchering Lia. It was a pretty skate, but too many rotation issues.

@moonvine This has been a good competition for stuffies. Virtually every skater has received them.

Karina. Beautiful green dress. Good program. She has her 3S and 3T and good spins.

 

[FlossieH]

Nice skate from Karina Sheina

 

[Jeanie19]

Maisa. Pretty dress. Nice program and skate.

 

[Jeanie19]

Ula. Beautiful blue dress. Lovely program and skate.

 

[FlossieH]

I thought there was a problem when Ula skated straight to the referee at the start

 

[Jeanie19]

Weronika. Pretty blue dress. Nice program. Great opening jump and good spins.

 

[FlossieH]

Too many pops for Weronika, and she knows it.

Juskaite was a pleasure to watch today.. and she's rising in the standings..

[Jeanie19]

Hannah. Beautiful purple dress. Nice program. A few mistakes, but she never gave up. Patrick in the audience giving support.

Warm-up in Bratislava, let's go here.

From what I saw Hannah has nice skating but unfortunately numerous technical issues

 

[Jeanie19]

Jiaying. Beautiful dress and program. Not the skate she is capable of. But she never gave up, good spins.

 

[FlossieH]

I wonder whether it might have been better for the US to pair an experienced skater with an inexperienced one for each JGP, rather than sending all their experienced skaters to the same ones and then the new skaters together.

 

[Jeanie19]

Zhasmin. Pretty dress and a nice program. Good skate.

 

[FlossieH]

Zhasmin Shlaga has matured a lot in her skating. She needs to be careful, though, not to lose the quirkiness which has made her stand out in the past.

 

[flanker]

Zhasmin Shlaga has an obvious potential but she is very unbalanced, some element very good then immediately big mistake, very good, mistake and so on. Probably needs more experience.

 

[FlossieH]

Well, that has stopped Juskaite's climb!

Jana with her own choreo...
