Wow behind Osmond and Zhang.

 

[chiocciola]

Murakami must have some support from the JPN.Fed... Never liked her... I guess there are so many talented girls in Japan. Why choose her?

Big mistake with the pop, sadly. That's going to cost...

Kanako peaked too early!! perfect performances at nationals and 4CC... maybe she did this too early!!

So happy for her! I liked her immensely! She's like a breath of fresh air.

Kanako is out of the race.

I concur.

This Italian skater skates so beautifully! But I could not stop laughing as she added a 360 twirl to the end of her jump.

 

[HalfTriple]

Wow behind Osmond and Zhang.

That may not be right.

 

[rollerblade]

This poor girl had to train alongside Jeremy?

 

[neraiselle]

So happy for her! I liked her immensely! She's like a breath of fresh air.

Great news and welcome Norway!

That flying sit spin from Marchei is the epitome of how the scoring system destroys choreography.

She's been runner up at Nationals two year straight. Must be doing something right.
