Fist pump from Gold. Some messy landing, but she rotated everything. Solid skate from her, the best internationally this season.

FS: 65.22 + 60.18 = 125.40 (PB)
Tot: 184.25 (PB), in 1st (out of 13)

Oh Gracie I am so proud of you! Weird problem with the axel but all in all she did herself proud.

 

[Kissx3]

Good job Gracie. Little problems here and there with landings but I wouldn't ask anything more of a kid with so much hype and pressure at her first Worlds. The US should have 3 spots easily unless Ashley just bombs.

 

[Krislite]

Not bad. Landed all the jumps, though she fought for some of them...

 

[ForeverFish]

GOOD GIRL! Two turn-outs, but she finished the jumps. One hand down on a 2A. Let's see what happens...

 

[hurrah]

Good job! She kept her nerves under control. Love the spins.

 

[Oreo]

I predict Gold to bomb badly.

I think not.

 

[Skater Boy]

Well Italy is down to two spots.

 

[mateusp1]

Gold hold it together!

4 elements with negative GOE.

Everything elseve deserved +2.

 

[mirai4life]

I don't know if this is enough for 115: considering the "e", there will be negative GOEs in five jumps out of seven...

Awww i hope it's enough

 

[tulosai]

Oh nailbiter. I think this will go in front of Liza but if you asked me to really bet on it I wouldn't.

 

[babyalligator]

a bit messy, but still a lovely skate. definitely improved on her presentation.

 

[Jammers]

Well she fought even though her jumps were a bit shaky.

 

[ForeverFish]

115.40...please...

 

[hrmsk8ngnutt]

Way to go Gracie!!! A few small mistakes, but overall a great skate!!

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

She's a better spinner than I remembered.

 

[aero]

I just noticed that Gracie also has some nice spins in addition to her sky high jumps

 

[sask8]

IDK...115...hmmmm...I can see 118 or 119

 

[Ziggy]

I was wrong. Well done Gold.

She does have to work on improving her presentation, though. Quite subpar choreography.

 

[Gymfan15]

oh, Gracie cut herself. Ouch.
