2014 NHK Trophy Ladies Free Skate 11/29

[Elaine]

I really love her dress and presentation, but the jumps...

 

[Blades of Passion]

I think this will not take the lead from Satoko.

It will, because of her ridiculously large (undeserved) SP lead.

 

[Alchamei]

I guess it will be enough for Alena.

 

[Dr. Jenn]

Messy skate by Alena, but she definitely sold it (especially with the Oda 'O' faces in the footwork)! I really like her dress as well, especially the silver applique on the side.

 

[andyjo24]

I think Satoko's out of the GPF...

 

[Sasha'sSpins]

Some messy landings but Alena did sell it though!

 

[treeloving]

For now if Satoko beat gold in any case Sakoto will be in GPF right?

 

[Mrs. P]

She will get in the GPF with 2nd place, if Gracie only finishes 3rd.

Ah yes. I realized that after I wrote my comment.

It looks like Alena might have done enough to pull ahead despite some errors.

So Gracie will have to at least beat Satoko to get 2nd. So that means she has to score at least 110.87. This will also assure Ashley of her spot.

If she wins, both Ashley and her also get to GPF.

Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering why Kanako's TES is so low.

Two podium finishes for Satoko this season, congrats!

 

[begin]

I'm gonna be really annoyed if Leonova doesn't get UR calls.

 

[Cyn]

Gahhhh....I'm a bundle of nerves now for Gracie.

 

[Totentanz]

Leonova has problems with skating a clean LP. She can't make podium at RN like this. I'm so sad.

 

[viennaskater]

(especially with the Oda 'O' faces in the footwork)! .

What on earth do you mean?

 

[Alchamei]

Come on Satoko! You can get to the GPF!

 

[mirai4life]

Gracie. XO

 

[EdgeCall]

The door is wide open for Gracie. I don't think she will drop it now.

 

[taltaltel]

That's wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy overscored! Higher PCS than Satoko

I'm expecting Gracie to bomb but I really don't want her to
