2025 JGP Abu Dhabi Women's Free Skate

I guess Rothbart wins this one. Poor girl.

 

[elbkup]

a pretty big one (btw yes, Red Violin is a movie)

Picnic is an Aussie made film, one of famed director Peter Weir’s first major films, based on a true event, a mystery which I think remains unsolved. Peter Weir is worth following; my favorite of his being The Year of Living Dangerously with an Oscar winning performance by Linda Hunt.

yes i know, i watched it. i was replying to @lileychristie who said she was living under a rock and i said "a big one" referring to this movie. the joke didn't land i guess

I hope chinese fed will reevalute their strategy cause those juniors skaters compete so much domestically since very early in the summer that almost all of them underperfomed in the grand prix events. They're not peaking in right moment.

Oh dear this lovely little Chinese swan Ruichen is having a rough day. She is so lovely and reminded me of some of the lovely Korean ladies. I hope she isn't discouraged, because I would really like to see her again after some rest, healing or fresh start. I can see that she has put in a lot of hard work that will pay off eventually.

Yes. A camel with skates . I want one.

 

[labgoat]

Zhasmin's dress is gorgeous. She is giving me Isabeau vibes with her stroking.

I chose to answer your post instead of the original because of the image but it was intended for the original poster too. Did you like the movie? It has stayed with me a long time (back on topic)

 

[elektra blue]

started strong but finished in an half disaster

 

[bartlebooth]

Unfortunately not her day, but her personality really shines through.

 

[Jeanie19]

Zhasmin. Pretty dress. Good spins and a decent skate.

yes a camel with skates, with a bow on the side of the head for girls, no bowsfor boys. and everyone gets two, one for the short, one for the long-

honestly i watched it a long time ago. i remember i liked it although it was confusing at some points. they made a series a couple of years ago, it's nice although simpler

Seems like a few skaters are having a difficult time today Ruichen looked so strong at the Chinese Interclub League stages, I really hope she can get back to that for Nationals (and that she won't take another full year off from competition or quit altogether).

Beautiful Double Salchow to start with

Combination jump beautiful too

Ach, fall on Triple Lutz

Didn't notice the hugging herself in the choreography before.

Beautiful combination jump

Double Loop beautiful too

Combination Spin beautiful

Another fall on Triple Flip

And a third on the Triple Toe

Making up for it with the Choreographic Secquence. And Flying Sit Spin. And Camel Spin.

She's in shock. Had to take a pause after she finished.

She's not taking a chance with doing a cartwheel today.

Well, I guess this confirms it. Doing 3 events on consecutive weeks was too much for Zhasmin.

She is very disappointed waiting for her scores.

She goes into 4th in the FS, and 2nd overall.

Someone Like You such a throwback to 2012, when everybody was skating to it.

 

[4everchan]

Unfortunately, that's the kind of LP. Reese has been skating this season.

 

[Jeanie19]

Reese. Pretty dress and a really good program. Good skating skills and spins.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

I wanted to say that this was a fairly good skate for Reese with only one pop, but then she fell and now it's a Free skate in line with all of the others she had this season. I really want her to get two clean programs in one competition one day, because that would be a huge score and a huge confidence boost.
