Why? Because URs will actually be called and not overlooked like they often are? Because the ladies actually rotating their jumps will get the appropriate reward for it then? Because these girls will actually get feedback on how their jumps are instead of being made believe these problems weren't there (like at national events)? Oh, how horrible

The only thing I don't like about this is it is less likely that Amano will be at WC

ye I prefer him o be on Worlds

My top concern for the event is whether Polina finally grabs the elusive title this time.

chuckm · Mar 14, 2017

Carrot / !e time!

LORIOL-OBERWILER is almost as strict as AMANO!!

Mr Amano is a true professional who fulfilled his duties with utmost courage and honesty in this crooked world. I'm very impressed :hap85:

Real good feeling about Marin and the Japanese ladies especially in light of the bad draw for the Russian ladies. i wonder if this will put the Russian ladies / girls off. mind y ou they are competitors but usually pcs rise and the Russians have a real bad draw comparatively.

The Russian ladies are where they are in the start order because of their world standings. Russia's current depth of talent means that even their first year juniors are scoring 180+ out of the gate and skaters would have either qualified for senior GP or been weeded out by better performing peers by their 2nd or 3rd year of international competition. So, the result is that at this level they may smash their SB / PB and even break junior level records, but still lose out in world standings to skaters who have competed in more competitions, over more years, even with middling placements. Would not worry too much as Alina & Stasya have significantly better tech than the other girls in their respective groups (except Eun Soo who is in the same boat anyway regarding the draw).

Agreed. I think this might be bad news for a few skaters, including gold favorite Zagitova. She gets away with URs sometimes especially in the FS. I think having everyone on a fair playing ground will mean the results are accurate and not skewed one way or the other.

Same here. I wish he or his clone can be at every competition.

Good luck to all th ladies! Hope we can see lots of clean skates! :hap85::hap85::hap85:

Go Valentina! You can get to the final!

No Polish girl on entry list

I am not shocked though.

cheerknithanson · Mar 16, 2017

I'm so impatient...

breadstal · Mar 16, 2017

I will miss first two groups and last group, I hate time difference and school :drama:

chuckm · Mar 16, 2017

I'm torn with this one. I'd like to skip the first few flights, but I do want to see Starr Andrews, who leads off Flight 4 at 1:15 am EDT, and the next group has both Sagitova and Tennell.

Staying up all night isn't great for me, as I have two dogs who rather insist on bedtime. I guess I will have to bring the dogs to bed at 11:00, pretend to go to sleep, and then sneak out of bed to watch the ladies, then go back to bed at 6 am (when it's still dark). That means no Pairs FS, but I do have to sleep some time.

karne · Mar 16, 2017

As seems to be the normal for me this JW except pairs, I will be at work when Holly skates...
