2016 Trophée de France Ladies FS

[s_parks]

It's all didier's fault, like everything bad in figure skating.

 

[valerieally]

That was a ton of doubles. I guess Mao aims to use her GPs as trials, rather than having the goal of making the GPF.

 

[qwertyskates]

I'm actually crying at this Ladies FS...it's such a tough sport, it really can break you.

Thank you all for bringing so much beauty into our lives. I just feel so sad, it clearly takes its toll, Mao, Gracie, Ana, Yuka, Leonova:sad21:.

 

[SarahSynchro]

There must be a jump sniper hiding in the arena. He has amazing aim so far tonight.

 

[Crossover]

Oh well.............what a disastrous ladies event so far.

Except Mae's redemption, everyone in the first group is so mistake-ridden

 

[jenm]

I think those doubles were intentional. Better this than more injured. Her skating's lovely as usual.

 

[Chemistry66]

Seriously though, what is up with the GP this season? Every event seems to have had odd issues and major standings flipflops in at least one discipline

 

[Kittosuni]

Mao has tendecy to be really slow but this skate is just uber slow. Is she ok??

 

[snowflake]

If you ignored all the jumps, it was nice? :scratch:

Hard to do though...

 

[OS]

Uh.... get well Mao, take a rest, recuperate.

Well..i for one really appreciate her taking a risk with a set of programs that challenges her and shows different aspect of her. Pity her injury really affected her. They are good programs.

 

[MeltedIce]

mao is always beautiful to watch, even with so low technical content

 

[Layback11]

This is like the Sochi men's FS on steroids. Depressing.

 

[hortensja]

You know what this forum needs? A smiley chugging down a bottle of wine or two.

I'drinking champagne ... crying [emoji24]

At least Mao ends with a beautiful and enjoyable step sequence. She is still a beautiful skater... I just wish she'd be healthy and those knees would cooperate. You know she is not happy with what she's doing out there... poor girl.

Miss consistent, evgenia.. if she has problems we know there's been a hex put on this arena...

 

[Biellmann]

This competition is canceled, we're trying it again tomorrow

 

[cl2]

Mao is noticeably shortening her ice coverage before jumps on the puddle side....still had one slip and turnout there, but shortening the prep and delay on takeoff may mean she doesn't have the height and distance for the third rotation...

In view of the ice, does someone on the judging panel have authority to order an ice resurfacing in between groups?

 

[Watermelondrea]

With how bad these performances are I wouldn't be shocked if Mevedeva gets the WR.

 

[Matilda]

Oh Mao

 

[TT_Fin]

Am I watching our national qualification competition in Finland or what? The level is nearly the same at the moment.

Gracies scores seem to be scores to Frank Carrol, not to her skate.

 

[Pamigena]

someone needs to throw life jackets at this competition ASAP :curse:
