I like #4CC and some individual twitter pages. #4CC2012 and #figureskate are mostly Japanese and a lot of RT on good reports on Japanese skaters.
for me the two 3A that she did in practice looked absolutely magnificent and completely fully rotated, her height was awesome and the fast rotation is so amazing to see, can't wait for the competition to begin and wish her all the best... can't believe that only one or two month ago her mother died, she really is unbelievable, wonder where she always gets the strength from!
from the practice youtube videos, mao's 3A looks < and her 3F-3L looks awfully similar to a 3F-2L. But if she says she'll do it, i'll be waiting intently for the ladies for her to prove me wrong. hope streaming links will be posted up
I'm so excited that Mao is trying everything. Does anyone know how the altitude is affecting her? Has she spent time training at a higher altitude?

I didn't see any 3-3 combo videos from practice, only 3A and 3F-2L. Do you have any video?
I think her 3A is borderline UR from the practice videos. It can go either way, depends on the technical specialist( If she lands one in the competition,of course)
Kanako was treated for anemia and stomachache due to the low oxygen level. I hope she's OK and will compete.

What is 3A< worth?? Is it 6 with some change?
What's "minute issues"?
Chan, who trains in Colorado Springs, said the ice felt different than in recent practice sessions and that contributed to his hiccup.
“They changed the ice, and the temperature was a little different. I could feel it,” said Chan, who won gold at the 2009 Four Continents Championships. “I was on it last Friday, a week ago, and it feels different than then. So, little things like that change things, and that’s why it makes it feel a little bit foreign.
“It really makes me feel like I’m at an international competition and not at home.”
Chan said he didn’t feel at ease during the warm-up session, either.
“The six-minute warm-up was a little shaky,” he said. “I was having trouble finding my feet and staying grounded. I was getting high in the shoulders and tight in my upper body, so my jumps weren’t as poppy.”
