^yeah I noticed that too. I wonder if she actually did a triple axel and a double axel. I suppose she could have been doing it for this event as prep for the aerial challenge. Yeah otherwise a clean loop could have bumped that score a solid 5-6 points.

edited to add: aaaah just saw Golden411's post.

I would like to see video. Frankly, I would be surprised if she went for 3A, considering she can't even rotate the other triples with regularity.

Ah, but of course, since the big screw-up, no-one will ever see it.

:cheer: for Mariah's 3f+3t and Mirai's 3a! Any program notes? Can you do a 3a and a 2a in the same SP without getting deducted?

I think this tweet might refer to Broadmoor SP today -- although it says Freezer.

Freezer event still is in progress. Impossible that Nathan already won -- and for Freezer, no division btwn seniors/juniors.

@ifsmagazine
Heard that @jasonbskates 2-footed attempted quad, fell on combo @Freezer Aerial Challenge. Nathan Chen won senior men's event.

Yes -- but in that case the 3A would either need to be the triple preceded by steps or other connecting moves, or else it would need to be done in combination with another triple or double.

The solo axel jump is only one element and can be either double or triple

FYI:

@11apperera -- who live-tweeted throughout the Freezer Challenge -- says s/he will be back tomorrow :) for senior men and ladies.

STITCH, a favor to ask of you, please -- if not too much trouble:

ETA: never mind. @SarahandDrew eventually tweeted what I wanted.​

(I do not plan to copy this person's excellent live-tweeting into the thread -- at least re Senior Ladies.)

Thanks for the link to the tweets! Would you mind if I moved some of them into this thread?

(Only interesting thing I see is that Katie McBeath has a 3lo+3lo, according to the blog.)

Ohhh, you certainly do not need to ask me whether I mind ;).

The one thing I would ask/suggest is to be sure to credit @11apperera repeatedly as the source of the tweets.

I for one would be only appreciative if you did copy some of the tweeting into this thread.

[I kind of went crazy copying the same person's prolific (and very informative :)) tweets into the Freezer Challenge thread last night. So I am stepping back for the Ladies FS, but again, would be glad to have you add the tweeting to this thread. Thank you :).]

Uh oh, per @11apperera, both Amber Glenn and Mirai Nagasu appear to be slightly injured (Amber after a bad fall, Mirai clutching her knee).

I hope they're okay... :no: Miyu sounds interesting, and is it typical for Mariah to water-down her jump content in these competitions?

Thk you :).

And thnk you for taking the trouble of such careful formatting :).
You have gone above and beyond the call of duty :bow: w/ the citations (IMHO).
(All I meant is that I included credit for the tweeter once in each of my posts -- with each of my posts lumping a batch of tweets together, without nice formatting. Thk you again for your attention to detail.)

Congrats to Amber, Mariah, Miyu :).

Hope Amber and Mirai are OK.

wow, what a low score for Mirai. I'm interested in seeing the programs and her 3A attempts, though. Hope she continues to do it.
