A lot of Rika's jumps look UR to me :/

Those judges are going to eat her alive... they'll call in Ksenia to help with the seasoning...

You're writing poetry with that rhyme.

Rhyme or no rhyme, Marin doesn't care. She just slays.

 

[xeyra]

Yay Rika! Good job!

 

[invisiblespiral]

My stream spazzed through Rika.

 

[Lissy]

I have the San Jose Sharks game on my computer (with 1 headphone on so I can hear the commentary) and skating on my tv. The Sharks announcers said something like "great hop right there!" right after Rika's axel and I am embarassed how confused it made me.

not sure about this music for her but she is smiling

 

[nolangoh]

Best choreography so far. But I know she won't get 8s. :sad21:

 

[GGFan]

Couldn't they have picked a more lively cut of music for Rika? I think she's at her best when she's selling something energetic

 

[largeman]

Thank goodness that woman stopped singing

You spoke too early...

 

[SarahSynchro]

Oh jeez, did she just kick the boards on that landing?

 

[Sabrina]

Nice program Rika!

 

[mermaidfestavol3]

Tech caller might kill that score, ugh. And she probably won't get close to Ashley PCS either :/

 

[Cherry blossom]

Oh no kermit the frog is singing again.

 

[Shayuki]

Rika's really hammering out those URs. And to be honest, I don't like this program, not one bit. The dress also is weird.

She's really whiffed her programs for this season as far as I'm concerned.

 

[moriel]

So, lets start betting how much that TES will drop?
i thing around 10 points it will be

Even with the mistake I still enjoyed it<3 so happy she is doing moulin rouge again

I am not happy at all. It's a shame that skater of her calibre repeats the same program for 3 years that got stale by now (and another one , there's no excuse for that. I think Ashley had to have exceptionally low confidence after previous season, she noticed that her form in the summer is not what she expected hence those ideas for repeat as it was the only thing in her mind that could make her feel comfortable. Just sad. Her current shape / regressing technical ability does not give those hoary old chestnuts any favours. She's not going to win medal for sure here after that. It was better day in the office for Wagner but I am disappointed with her fall from grace.

 

[yuna]

I will never like Rika's skating because of her bad posture but I'm glad she did well. Now..lets see how the judges score this

 

[drivingmissdaisy]

Rika has no Spanish flair whatsoever.

 

[s_parks]

Sorry, but the URs were evident without slow-mo. She's gonna get hosed.
