2015 Worlds Ladies Short Program March 26

[Mrs. P]

Anna's keep touching her back? is she hurt?

She has a torn ligament.

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

Ouch, that was a HARD fall for Pogo.

 

[Violet Bliss]

Aw... I have a soft spot for Pogo ever since she did her EX to Conchita Wurst. Too bad- fall and a stumble

I have a soft spot for her too. So beautiful and insecure.

 

[Ava Moore]

How's Tsareva's face? :hopelessness:

 

[paulusfr]

So sad for Anna

 

[shiroKJ]

Wasn't Shin the caller for last year's Worlds? He certainly had no qualms with handing out URs to Mao, who's bigger than Satoko to say the least.

He had a personal grudge against Mao...nothing could have protected her from his vicious dinging. He was always on her case even if it looked rounded. :disapp:

 

[gravy]

Michelle will always be an exception. For everything.

Rippon also fired him. But only because Adam couldn't deal with all the criticism Frank laid on him.

 

[evangeline]

How's Tsareva's face?

Positively dour.

 

[burntBREAD]

I think that 3F deserved a <. Got to see the protocols but certainly the TES are way too high although her non jump elements especially the steps were excellent. The jumps...... I thought she ought to get higher PCS and lower TES. I mean Gracie got higher PCS despite those messed up landings and Satoko got less PCS with her excellent speed and bladework??? ***?

Yeah. I think Satoko is dinged for being so small/shy, even though her bladework/skills are really excellent. I do also think she was quite lucky in terms of TES today, though.

 

[firal]

Anna fought for it, gotta give it to her.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

How's Tsareva's face? :hopelessness:

Beautiful, like always

 

[jkun]

HEr coach is so scaryhwell:

 

[Sandpiper]

Big fall from Anna. I think it might've aggravated her injury. She fought through bravely, but clearly something was up...

 

[beki]

I'm not convinced Frank is Gracie's problem. But he's not her solution either.

 

[wagnerfan]

ARGH the russian stream keeps freezing every two seconds.

Now, GOOO ASHLEY!!!!!!!!!! I stayed up for this. I can't believe it!!!

I'M SO NERVOUSSSSSS

 

[Lenny318]

I'm not convinced Frank is Gracie's problem. But he's not her solution either.

Well said. I agree.

 

[Macassar88]

Felt like Pog should have bee higher than Gracie because at least she did her combo

 

[samson]

Wow behind Gracie even. And with that all three Japanese ladies make the final group.

 

[Ophelia]

Anna's gonna be out of the Russian 3 next year at this rate.

 

[NaVi]

She has a torn ligament.

I think it's more of a badly sprained ankle...
