Where's home country inflation when you need it?

Junjun never benefitted from home inflation if I can recall... this is just the tradition. Unfortunately.

YES!!!! KANAKO SKATED SO WELL!!! Although I wasn't looking at the jumps that closely.

Why is everybody in this group skating so well?

 

[Iscariot]

[beki]

Kanako is very endearing when she hits

If she is not leading. I will be legitimately confused.

Her jumps looked okay in the replay....

Looks like they pulled out the good Zamboni for this group.

I'm tellin' ya'll, it's a sabotage.

Wow. That was eons more sophisticated than anyone else we saw. Her footwork especially was Even if some of the expression was a little much for my taste, the musicality and edging were a notch above the last three.

I hope that goes into first.
