2014 Skate Canada Ladies SP 10/31

[satine]

Wow, that's a really tacky, 1980s-style dress.

The shoulders

1st????

Why wouldn't it be in first full credit 3Lz-3T, great 3Loop, pretty good spins. Why would she have been anywhere else?

I actually really liked that program.

 

[Ophelia]

WOWZA! Miyahara's skating is really graceful and refined for someone her age. Pogorilaya - take notes.

 

[minze]

Satoko's has it all

 

[BounceAround]

I was so drawn into Satoko's performance that I forgot to keep track of her elements. She was clean. I love how she expresses the music with her skates.

 

[cebi26]

Lovely!!

 

[burntBREAD]

University of Michigan colors!

I sort of miss the banana-moon dress though.

 

[hippomoomin]

The dress reminds me of VISA logo.

The shoulders

 

[Blades of Passion]

Oh dear. It's a good thing Miyahara has a good LP this season because that SP is poop.

 

[Meoima]

Satoko's dress is.... a big no.

 

[Dr. Jenn]

Nice job by Satoko - good presentation and musicality, and a great final spin, but those jumps are so low! They look like they barely leave the ice. When she grows/gains weight/curves, she's going to be in trouble. She relies so much on fast rotation to get the jumps done.

She's cute but circa 1980's program and dress.

The shoulders

take away the shoulders, the yellow lining, and lessen the plunge.....

anyway, a lovely skate from her! Go Satoko!
please win so I can do better in the GP predictions game hahahahah

 

[lady_bee]

I like the words "age appropriate":agree:

 

[lavender]

That shot of Alena after Anna got her score lol, so unimpressed

Not an Alena fan either but I don't blame her. I don't why the judges like sloppy skating.....but that's just me. Oh well

 

[Scovies]

Way to go, Satoko! But for the love of all that holy, burn that dress. It looks like something from 1989.

 

[rosacotton]

Not a huge fan of Satoko's dress, but I really enjoyed her Magic Flute music.

 

[Sandpiper]

Miyahara: 3Lz-3T, 3F, 2A. Jumps were very low and packaging highlights her youth. But more listenable music than Pogorilaya (imo).
