2016 US Nationals Senior Ladies SP

It drives me crazy when a skater wears over the boot tights and they start slipping off the skate and you see the white, Argh!!! Like Adelina at Sochi all over again. Is it really that difficult to properly secure them?
 
I accidentally deleted my PBP of Bradie and then my wifi spazzed up, but she was clean except that she smacked the boards so bar you could hear it (stayed up).
 
I think Vivian has lost her JW spot if Tyler skates well for the FS.

Tyler was a disaster last year at Jr Words after skating well at Nationals. Not sure they will trust someone who has finished 14th and 19th at Jr Worlds.
 
Particularly when boots are gratis at her level. (don't know this about Mirai specifically, but know it to be the case for other comparable skaters) Many coaches recommend a spare pair ordered ahead of the break down of the current boots and insist the new boots are brought to Nationals.
At this level, you are your equipment. Fine if there is a glitch, but wearing down is inexcusable for someone of Mirai's or her coach's experience.

100% Correct!!!!
