2013 Worlds Ladies FS

[FSGMT]

I think that the last spin was an invalid element, because the first attempt was actually considered a level0 spin, and so there was a total of four spins...

The 1st group is actually quite watchable, which is a pleasant surprise. Lots of technical content, 3lutz, 3flip, 3loop...

 

[jatro]

Overall a nice performance by the German girl. She has good quality in her skating. Attempting the harder jumps, lutz and flip should help her score...I see her going into the lead.

 

[Fruit Loops]

I liked Natalie's skate. Not the most interesting choreography and it's too bad about the lutz and loop but a decent skate. I think she should move up a bit. Love seeing the lower ranked skaters doing well. Makes for a good competition.

 

[neraiselle]

It was good to see gutzy and brave performance from Nathalie.

 

[Fruit Loops]

I don't think I'll ever like the dresses/costumes that seem to made up of threads and swirls. Looks messy and like it's about to fall apart. I hope for another good skate.

 

[SamuraiKike]

Its only the first group and we already have 3 scores in the 90s... Very promising for a good night of skating. This worlds really really need one.

Feed keeps freezing. Has anyone found any better feeds?

Does anyone have the British Eurosport link? That worked so well for the men last night!

 

[mirai4life]

The two Chinese skaters, Kexin and Zijun really surprised me. Zijun is the total package while Kexin needs to work a lot on her artistic side.

that one doesn't work at the moment, neither does the british eurosport one. check page 10 of this thread and see if any of those work for you.

this is a russian one and works for me so far: http://kaban.tv/rossiya-2-online

Yes it is. "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind by Joe Hisaishi"

 

[jazzee4]

This one is working also, although it is not in English:

As I said, I'm betting it will show up for the 2nd flight.

One fall on the planned 3-3 combo, but the rest looked solid enough. No expression whatsoever, though... Some of her combos looked UR in replay

Tot: 137.41, in 4th (out of 5)

She must've gotten some < and <<

Yay, very nice by Zhang I really like her a lot and hope she will have a strong season next year.
