17th Tirnavia Ice Cup | Oct 31 - Nov 2

"Objection"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I saw the dress that Terézia PÓCSOVÁ (SVK) was wearing, I wouldn't have imagined she was skating to probably my favourite Shakira song. But now that I see the GIF I have added, I can see the connection. Both dresses are black with gold flower patterns on them. Yes, the flower patterns are very different. But, it's the thought that counts.

I absolutely loved everything about that programme. The music. The beautiful dress. And the skating.

OK, so she did have a few dodgy moments. But, hey!

Unfortuantely, she hasn't come down to the results area, so we can't work out how she feels about how she got on.

She finishes the SP in 5th position.

Isabella NIEDERLEITNER (AUT) starting us off with some Edith Piaf.

She was wearing a red dress with flappy bits of material hanging from her left shoulder.

The skating was good, although I noticed one jump where the landing wasn't great.

OK, somebody gave her a cow.

She's frustrated.

It must be cold off the ice today. You can see both Isabella and her coach's breath in the results area.

I got caught out again! Every time I hear the first few notes of the piece that Emma Lora HIEZL (HUN) is skating to, I think it is "Boléro".

Sorry, but I don't like her dress. The sides are black, the front and back are red. And there are lots of silver sparklies. But, the way the pattern is, from a distance, it looks like she is barely covered at all.

Messy skate. Unfortunately, there is no other way to put it.

She's being very talkative while waiting for her scores. Which is encouraging. And now she's waving enthusiastically to the camera.

At least she is in good spirits.

She goes into 2nd position in both the FS and overall.

I feel like it is a long time since I saw somebody skating to this, but it probably isn't.

Ana STRATULAT (ROU) was wearing a black dress with a sash shaped white pattern.

Fall on the first element, but after that it was good.

It is cold in the results area. She is holding her jacket around her body very tightly.

She goes into quite a large lead in both the FS and overall.

Lili HARTDEGEN (HUN) was aloso wearing a black dress with a sash shaped pattern. But this time it was only on the front, and was illusion mesh rather than a colour.

I'm not familiar with the song, "Pull The Trigger" by Vella, but it is perfect for skating to!

Lili had problems with landing her jumps. But, when you put that aside, it was an enjoyable programme.

Pretty sure that's one of her team-mates standing beside her.

She goes into 2nd position in both the FS and overall.

Now that is a beautiful dress that Karina SHESTERIKOVA (EST) is wearing! Sky blue and black.

And beautiful music too.

Fall early on.

And then a really big fall in the middle where she was lying prone on the ice.

When it is done clean, this is will be a great programme. But, it was not her day today.

Oh, no. She's bawling her eyes out!

Her coach is just sitting there leaving her to it. Come on! Comfort her!

She goes into 2nd position in the FS, and the lead overall.

She is only 0.05 behind the leader in the FS!

I have no idea what the song was that Ines BELOT (FRA) was skating to, but I absolutely loved it!

She was wearing a dress that was mainly a black, but the shoulder area was pink.

There were a few mistakes.

She looked disappointed when talking to her coach.

Ooh, now they're looking intensely at something on the coach's phone.

She goes into the lead of both the FS and overall.

Charlotte JENNES (BEL) wearing a dark pink dress.

Music sounded very industrial at the start. But it turned out to be what can only be described as Middle Eastern techno. So, I'm torn. I love Middle Eastern music, but I hate techno music.

I said it yesterday about Charlotte's SP, and I will say it again today about her FS. This programme has Loena Hendrickx written all over it.

She actually skated it well.

She goes into a massive lead in both the FS and overall.

Boglárka ZHANG (HUN) wearing a beautiful very pale blue and white dress and matching gloves with a flappy bit of material on right glove.

First "Voilà" of the day. But, it seems to have been slowed down a little bit.

That was absolutely beautiful.

Much more my taste than the previous programme.

She goes into 2nd position of both the FS and overall.

Leontina HORČIČKOVÁ (CZE) wearing a black jumpsuit with pink trim, pink belt, pink heair band, pink gloves and pink ankle warmers.

Very 80's. She is skating to a very strange cover of "Fame".

A messy skate. I think only one of her jumps was clean. The others she either fell on or didn't land great.

Poor girl. I liked her yesterday.

Jennes, Zhang and Horčičková were covered by less than half a point in the SP. Leontina is definitely going to drop behind the other two. The question is will she drop further than that.

No, it's jsut them. She goes into 3rd position in both the FS and overall.

Anna GERKE (DEU) is wearing a black dress with a pattern that looks from a distance like a gold corset, but was actually various colours of flowers! And skating to various pieces of Spanish music.

She was great!

She's happy! But sitting on her own. Could her sister not have sat with her?

She already had a big advantage from the SP over the skaters that have already skated. But, she is going to extend that even further now.

And boys but she does! New leader by a massive margin in both the FS and overall.

Sorry, the window I had GS open in crashed.

Polina DZSUMANYIJAZOVA (HUN) skating to "Samson & Delilah", and wearing a predominantly red dress that turned white at the end, with a gold belt.

She was great!

No question about it, she'll go into the lead.

Overall, yes, but 2nd in the FS.

According to her ISU Bio, Simona TKACHMAN (ISR) is doing... an Agatha Christie programme?! Not words I ever thought I would type.

Well, it actually says it's a "Murder On The Orient Express" programme.

She is wearing a brown dress with matching gloves.

She skated well.

Just as a side note, she won Junior Ladies at the first round of the Cup Of Israel earlier in the week. In the FS on Tuesday, she scored 90.97 points, 17.25 more than the girl in 2nd position. And her overall score was 148.57 points, 36.20 more than the girl in 2nd position.

Today she scored 98.49 in the FS, and 153.42 overall.

She finishes in 3rd position in both the FS and overall.

Judging by the smiles of her beforehand, I think she was expecting to win.

Well, she scored higher than she did earlier in the week. And that is an achievement in itself. When doing competitions so close together, you expect the scores to go down.

40 minute break now, and then it's the Seniors.

[CaroLiza_fan]

And now. The end is here. And so we face. The final curtain.

Here Come The Girls!!!

After finishing the Junior girls earlier, it is now time to finish the Seniors.

CaroLiza_fan

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I was getting worried there when I only saw 5 girls on the ice during the Warm-Up. But then I remembered that there were only 11 entries in the Seniors to start with, and then Vivian PAPP (HUN) withdrew before the SP. It was the Juniors where there were 12 entries.

Well, with the Warm-Up now over, it is time to get to business.

Andrea BACOVA (SVK) started us off with what appeared to be a Christina Aguilera medley. But then "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" came in.

She was wearing a dark pink dress which I thought she was going to pop out of on quite a few occasions. A very low cut dress, no bra, and a very energetic programme do not go together.

Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable programme.

[CaroLiza_fan]

I don't like using language this strong, but the dress that Cintia SZABÓ (HUN) was wearing looked awful.

The music wasn't much better. That epic cover of "Young And Beautiful", followed by that 1920's style cover of "Crazy In Love".

She had a fall early on, and ended up sliding along the ice into the boards. But, she fought on.

She was very disappointed when she finished. And when she got to the results area, she just slumped into the chair.



She goes into 2nd position in both the FS and overall.

Simona KOLENÁKOVÁ (SVK) was wearing a very interesting dress. It was made to look like a matching grey skirt and bra, with black braces. Although, the bra was on top of the braces.

I loved the music. Very atmospheric.

Hey, I loved everything about the programme!

Very clever DJ trap towards the end. You thought the programme was over, and then the music came back and she did some more choreography!

She's happy.

She goes into the lead of both the FS and overall.
