2014 Olympics Ladies Short Program

[AlexThere]

Norwegian girl with a very pretty face.

Haha, they all are pretty

 

[hurrah]

very pretty skater with a pretty frock skating slow and shallow

 

[Icey]

Why do they keep going on and on about Jenna

 

[Mar]

I love the music.

 

[Chemistry66]

My stream is a little behind but I don't want to exit and restart in in the app because I had so much trouble getting it to work today in the first place.

3Lo
FCSp
CCoSp
2A
StSq
LSp

Landed all her jumps, but they are very small.

SP: 26.13+22.43 = 48.56 (PB), in 10th (out of 15)

 

[lupojohn]

As Johnny and/or Tara or Terry noted during the broadcast, she prefers her name to be the Western way(officially): Kim Yu-Na.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Gjersem's skate was so distracting, but I love that music.

Mao and Adelina are excellent at those jumps-Mao is better than Julia, and she should be considered the top contender for gold behind Yu na Kim -- the quality and body of work of Mao and Carolina put them ahead: Julia is part of a new generation with an even better new generation in the juniors awaiting Boyang Jin Nathen Chen Michael Christian Martinez Nam Nguyen Radionova et al

 

[usethis2]

I don't know what jumps she did? :think:

 

[Mrs. P]

As Johnny and/or Tara or Terry noted during the broadcast, she prefers her name to be the Western way(officially): Kim Yu-Na.

Wouldn't that be the Korean way (surname first?). Western way would be YuNa Kim.

 

[ARipp42014]

I don't know what jumps she did?

I was too busy watching that Eurovision song from Israel. BE HAPPY!

 

[blue_idealist]

Kurt and Carol Lane are saying that Anne Line would do well in ice dance, since she's not a natural jumper, but it would be tough to find a Norwegian guy as a partner.

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

Any bets on Yuna topping her 2010 SP score?

I doubt it, without the extra element, and her PCS possibly being held down. But clean should score 75.

 

[Rikku]

Anne Line Gjersem NOR....48.56 (into 10th)

So Youn Park KOR makes the FS

 

[ARipp42014]

The other Korean girl made the FS!

 

[CarneAsada]

Mao and Adelina are excellent at those jumps-Mao is better than Julia, and she should be considered the top contender for gold behind Yu na Kim -- the quality and body of work of Mao and Carolina put them ahead:

They're excellent when they land them and from what I hear they have been landing them brilliantly in practice. But they are also known for being inconsistent with those jumps in competition.

 

[Ven]

As Johnny and/or Tara or Terry noted during the broadcast, she prefers her name to be the Western way(officially): Kim Yu-Na.

She prefers Yuna Kim. She's had that on ISU profile since 2010-2011 and recently she personally notified western media to use Yuna Kim.

 

[rollerblade]

How's that the western way? Kim is her surname (last name).
