I think she landed 6 triples? Just a fall on the 2A, and the first 3L was bent at the waist, but nevertheless landed.

It's obvious she is trying to channel Michelle Kwan & her "Salome", though Joannie's S&D is good it is nowhere one for the ages, as is Michelle's. But who better to copy, good choice! :)

Her death drop is to die for! Love it!:clap:

And she easily goes into 1st place! :rock:

3Lz,3F,3S, she looks very serious, 3Lz-2t, 3t,3l, 3S, 2a fall!
Great program! Not a big fan of Joannie's style myselg, but the program works for her. Good if it was not for a big fall. Her dress is quite nice too.
111.06.
163.18.
So...not medal contender?

Um.. I didn't see the entire programme of Joannie but what I did saw was a fall and lots of double jumps; what's with the score?????

So they weren't doubles? I need to get my eyes checked then... I *did* just wake up...

Oh, my God. What happened to Joannie? This is the pre-2008 Joannie. Inconsistent, hesitant, distant. What happened to the super-reliable, super-confident, super-fit, play-it-up-to-the-judges-and-audience Joannie of the last season and half??

She's lucky she's got the judges on her side now with the PCS, after last season -- although if she keeps on skating this way, they might not keep on gifting her. TES lower than Diane Szmiett!

Sorry I was so fixated on Fumie's costume & youthful appearance that I forgot about the jumps. Her speed & height of jumps is first rate, comparable to Yuna Kim. I do recall her opening with a beautiful 3L/2T, but then her 3F was slightly UR, as was her second 3F, as well as 2footed. Her 2A/2A sequence was a beauty! Think she may have had a few slight problems with the rest of the 3jumps.

Like I said, I was paying too much attention to her outfit - is she portraying a beautiful slave girl?????

Fumie Suguri JPN

3flz-2t fine
3f ok
2a high!
cute poses
3lo messy
1lz
3f, 2foot and stumble
2a seq i missed
last combo spin ending in I-spin, much better than the other spins were

this was alright. has work to do in expressing this music. i miss being able to see her really zip across the ice in footwork (i wonder how she is live though), with all the CoP demands now and her maybe being off her peak also. but there is a steadyness overall still there that might keep her in JPN team contention, not bad

90.53 -- 2nd
