Mirai needs a new choreographer, a new costume designer and some oomph. This strategy is just not right .

Too bad about Mirai, but that girl is so much more than that snoozefest of a LP, I hope she changes it fast!!

What a contrast between Mirai and Akiko. Akiko pulled herself together after some little mistakes and skated like a winner... who loves to compete! What a delight!

It is definitely the year of awesome Die Fiedermaus program with Akiko's FS and Davis and White's FD.

I'm about to give up on Mirai. No fire no speed no nothing today when she should have gone for it. She hasn't learned to compete yet it seems.

I agree that Mirai needs to do something different. I would like to see her repeat her pirates program. That was exciting!

Hey, wait did Pasquale Camerlengo choreo that program? Wow he's doing some great programs this year.

I root really hard for Akiko, and it worked! Glorious skate despite a few mistakes. She always skate like she's inviting everyone to celebrate with her.

Super skate from Akiko! She has really come on over the last couple of years, albeit quite late in her career

You can blame the choreographer all you want but its the job of the skater to bring it to life. Mirai was sleepwalking out there.

Does anyone know if Eurosport will be covering all the GP's? I'm really enjoying the commentary and the video quality of that feed.


GREAT score for Akiko!!
