3z2t turnout on one foot on toe / 3f fell long time getting up / flycam is fast with good pos illusion out of it / spirals are pretty good - I’m running out of ways to describe spirals that are fine but not spectacular J / 2a hung on to landing / combo spin is quite good got a bit slow / O ftwrk goes well with the driving beat / layback spin has very nice back – leg pos could be better /

3z2t flutz badly / ftwrk 3f / flycam – didn’t see it but know how she usually does it people around me say that she travelled and didn’t really fly / 2a / layback is very good / spirals have the huge amplitude we all know / strt steps are good & fast / combo spin to end is very good fast & centered with good pos / she interprets the music quite well – has the right ‘attitude’.

Thanx Rosaleen so much for taking the time to give us the rundowns. I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!! Sasha skated great - two programs in a row - finally. She needs to bring it tomorrow night!

I'm so happy. I got so nervous when I saw how well Arakawa and Ando (and Michelle for that matter) did that I was worried for Sasha. Oh, tomorrow should sure be a showdown. Wonder if Ando will attempt the Quad.....if she nails it, it would boost her medal chances, but if she botched it, it would likely kill them. Going to be interesting tomorrow.

Good lord, I've never been so nervous for anyone as I was for Sasha a few minutes ago. I'm happy to see her skate cleanly and I'm even happier about her placement. Crossing my fingers she can do it again for the LP!

not having been there, who knows. But I'm surprised that MK was placed below the 2 japanese girls who had serious 3-3 combos, but then sasha was placed ahead of them w/just a 3-2 combo.

What short did MK do? last years?

Maybe she'll go for broke in the freeskate and try a 3sal-3toe? I would at this point if I were her.

Way to go sasha!!!

Michelle was definitely robbed. The judging here is so bad.

Shizuka and Miki both had underrotated 3/3s, and worse jump landings than MK. Not to mention Shizuka was a revolution short in her flying camel.

It seems they really want Kwan to quit.

What di Sebastyen get?

What place is Julia Sebastyen in? (She was the only one scheduled to skate after Sasha, right?)

Way to go Sasha!!!!!!!!
