[FSGMT]

huge score for Coomes/Buckland in the SD 64.85

Second highest this season, behind Weaver and Poje.

And they deserved it: that SD was wonderful! Huge improvement

Yikes! Didn't notice that the Coupe de Nice was this week! Hopefully the livestream will be archived, as I have plans for today.

What?! Liza doing ANOTHER Senior B, just days before heading across the Atlantic for Skate America! Boys, but she's game!

I just hope that doing this competition will prove to be an extra boost to her confidence going into Skate America. Because, if she doesn't win, this tactic could very easily backfire.

Good luck Liza!!!

And all the best to my fellow Irishman Conor Stakelum in his FS today! Fingers crossed that you do well enough to pick up a place or 2!
