I wonder if she will be skating in the team event... like Shoma, Kaori seems to do better when she competes more, not less, so I hope if Japan makes the free that they will put her in for it. Japan is a loooooong shot for a team medal, so I think Kaori could potentially benefit from having that be her first outing on Olympic ice where the pressure is lower.
um cathlen, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Laurine won't be there
so cheer extra loud for Kaori!
Kaori's skating tonight!!!!
Glad to see her getting good opportunities like training time and facilities in Seoul. Good call, JSF
Omg it's tonight? Thank goodness you posted this, for some reason I had in my head that the free skate was tomorrow, I would have missed it! I can't wait for the world to see Kaori's Amelie!!
I think this is a great opportunity for Kaori, I hope she does so so so well. Putting out a solid skate here could really push up her scores going in to fight for that individual Olympic bronze. Unfortunately for Satoko, I think last night's scores sent a clear message that she's not going to be contending for a medal, so the JSF should be doing everything it can to make sure Kaori has all the support she needs and more to get themselves a spot on that podium. I believe she can do it!!
I will fight my family hard to let them let me watch they're not very big into skating and think it's a waste of time
if only they saw Kaori....
