2014 Trophée Eric Bompard Ladies FS 11/22

[TMC]

Late to the game and haven't had a chance to read the thread: does Ashley have a stomach bug? She was holding her stomach and I think in the K&C she said to Rafael "I just don;t want to throw up"?

Ricky Dornbush caught a tummy bug on the plane over, so if they took the same flight it's more than possible

 

[MalAssada]

Well... It's way better than CoC and I the dress.

[Bufo viridis]

OK, big improvement from CoC, but still, that fall...

 

[Excidra2001]

I don't like her dress.

 

[OS]

So much better than last outing Yulia!! Well done Little Superstar you!
Bit business like though I thought.

 

[taltaltel]

Better skate than at CoC, though she doubled the loop and fell on the second flip... put the double toe back with the lutz though. Should go into first.

 

[Mista Ekko]

Lips showing much better form than 2 weeks ago, Goes for Lutz and Flip, Lands Salchow, Looks happy

Hm...yeah. Also Rafael is usually MUCH harder on her when she does a performance like that. So perhaps something is at play.

 

[stryke]

Oh no Alba denied the hug.

 

[xabia]

The judges love Ashley

Yea, they must - they give her too many marks!

 

[ahy]

As long as elena doesn't bomb ithink she will have the gold

 

[inskate]

Her 3L/3F/3Lz are quite messy this season...

 

[Plisskin]

Very much agree with British Eurosport. Technically good from Yulia other than 1 mistake, but performance wise she's quite boring to watch.

 

[JasonLover]

Gooo Elleennnnaaaaaaaaa

 

[OS]

This Juliet doesn't need a Romeo! Romeo who?

 

[begin]

Eurosports is claiming that Yulia struggled with depression post-Sochi. Did they read from that one (false) tweet from The Skating Lesson?

 

[sunnystars]

Yep.

And yet another messy skate.

agree with you on the dress....it reminds me of one of Nancy Kerrigan's dresses...

 

[cebi26]

That flip is really troublesome for her
Lovely dress!

 

[Mangomango]

Yulia's dress looks itchy
