Why were people going crazy over Yulia again? This girl is amazing!

 

[Blades of Passion]

Sotnikova on FIRE.

Go Adelina! I just wish this wasn't yet another Carmen routine.

Ultra slow step sequence.....+10.876 GOE

I perfer Adelina's SP but Julia's FS.

I think we might have someone who can compete with Yuna, Carolina, and Gracie (and maybe Mao)

 

[yelyoh]

Adelina brings it. Great skate by the backup : ) should go into third.

 

[Dutchie]

Awe please do not put Ashley in the same category as Kerrigan......Kerrigan always came off as a snotty rich *****

I don't know if she comes off b***** or what, but she comes across like she is trying too hard to be sexy or fierce or something and it just doesn't come across classy or professional like we are used to seeing in figure skating. I prefer a quiet confidence and let the skating do the talking and she comes nowhere close to that. Happy that she delivered tonight though, I never want to see her fail because other than her attitude, her skating can be quite lovely to watch. I just wish she'd keep in mind that she is a lady, not a wannabe sexy skater. Save that for the ice shows.

Will Adelina take 1st ?

Nice clean skate with lots of attack! She is extatic. Should be 3rd, I think

SP: 39.09+35.55 = 74.64 (PB), in 2nd (out of 29)

Despite the Lipnitskaya hype, Adelina is the true current queen of Russian skating tbh.

 

[snowflake]

Adelina nailed it. Sooo happy for her This was great!

 

[rollerblade]

Adelina delivered. I hated her jazz hands but she looked so exuberant on the ice.

 

[xyriateo]

Ashley will make the final flight. Yay!

She won't, if Asada gets her act together

 

[Ophelia]

Lmao. Adelina called and she wants her Russia's darling mantle back!

 

[lupojohn]

Great. Another one who does very little footwork and will push Gracie off the podium.

 

[wonderlen3000]

yayyy Adelina should goes into 3rd...

 

[TMC]

Who wins the sass war - Mae Berenice or Jason?
