2017 GP Internationaux de France Ladies FS

I am really sorry to say that, but... just no. She is so athletic and her choice is Chopin. That 'dress'. And the change of dress. That parts linking moment with people shouting 'whoooo' was really apropriate.

Nocturne is indeed a weird choice for a power skater like her, but for me she somehow makes it work. I still think though she should do Nocturne alone in the SP and Happy in the LP, particularly since she currently has a similar music switch already in the SP.

I'm not going to lie, I kinda love this program. I'm here for this incongruous music cut.

 

[Kara]

This lack of music in the replays and only hearing the sound of people chatting and the audience is so weird. Cognitive dissonance here.

 

[Shayuki]

First time seeing this program and it's such a crazy mixed bag but I enjoyed it. I wish there was more stretch and better edges but she had wonderful spring in her jumps. That costume/music change is hilarious but in some sense it worked because the program was getting really sleepy and it woke me back up.

I guess this is the point, maybe? But the first half just doesn't work for her at all and I think she should just do the whole program with the second half instead.

Goooo pollll

 

[zanadude]

I'm glad that routine wasn't rewarded with first place. Save that for an exhibition.

The cut surprises me everytime, I keep forgetting about it

 

[Arriba627]

Please Mae. Chopin can stand on its own without any gimmicks!

Polina has grown up so much, I almost didn't recognize her.

 

[Anni234]

May be the first time I say this about anyone, but Polina's illusion fabric is on point!

 

[Shayuki]

I liked Polina's program a lot. Then she jumped.

e: Well the second wasn't so bad. Just UR.

 

[semosk8tfan]

polina, this is painful to watch. At least you got a trip to France out of this over Thanksgiving break from school.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Splat.

 

[Bluediamonds09]

Polina looks beautiful!!

So glad that Nicole is still 1st.

 

[brens78]

is that piece of music an indicator she's retiring?

You have a point.

 

[Icey]

She's skating with too much caution

 

[ancientpeas]

Just say no to Sarah Brightman Ladies. Especially Time to Say Goodbye.

I admire Paulina for doing this. It can't be easy to be a full time student and try to compete.

 

[Kara]

Man if I was a masochist this competition would be heaven. By the way, Mae's cheek bones are so sharp, I'm so envious!

 

[QuadThrow]

Nicole is destroying the first group=):agree:

She beat Liza, the French ladies and now Polina.
