Sasha's costume was gorgeous and she skated very well. She deserves first place. Emily Hughes looks great and skated the best I have seen her skate. Bebe was the highlight for me. I would love to see her make the Olympics also. She is very underrated in my opinion. I think she should have placed over Emily. Lot's of power and speed. Alissa was heartbreaking but it isn't over for her yet. Kimmie has tons of potential and she is still young.
I agree, Piel...........If Michelle can't go to Italy, I would love to see Bebe in that third spot........she was well worth sitting through the falls and mistakes of some of the other gals............Wow....42
Way to go Bebe!!!!! And yes Piel, I think Joe has got to be high and heading for the bar to get higher! But Joe is certainly not alone in rooting for Bebe. The girl has such speed! I knew that program was going to be better than Skate America after the first jumping pass and boy, oh boy, was it ever!
Go Bebe! I would much rather see her go to the Olympics than Emily Hughes (so much hype around Hughes for being Sarah's "little sister"), and I feel Bebe is more consistent than Emily. I feel bad for Alissa though... first the GP Finals and now this. It's got to be a major let down after her fantastic shows at Skate America and Skate Canada. I was so happy to see Sasha skate a clean (mostly) program too. But the rest.... ouch.... splatfest.
Kyla, you're so right.........I would have placed Bebe ahead of Emily.....but to me, it was close. Despite Sasha's mistakes, she clearly had the top spot clinched....way to go....42
Can anyone explain why Emily was placed ahead of Bebe? Bebe was totally clean while Emily had a problem in her combination jump. And it's not like Emily's spins and footwork are better than Bebe's.
