2017 Worlds on-site reports

U.S. ladies on the ice now. Rohene at the boards with Raf today. Kaetlyn up in the next group along with Gabby. And the burning question. Will Carolina K show up in the next group? Really want to see her! :clapper:

ETA -- Come on Ashley -- sell it girl! Oh dear, the dreaded shoulder shimmies.

Dear Arriba627:ghug:, You are my hero and lifesaver regarding these reports while I'm at work, dying from lack of visuals and plotting how to take this friggin' Friday off to watch SD in full

Have You had maybe a chance to see some of Ice Dance practices (apologies in advance for asking dumb question as I don't know the practice schedule that much :slink:)

:thank:

The Russian men weren't at their practice this morning, by the way.

That's because they were still in Russia. Kovtun tweeted about finally flying to Helsinki just an hour ago from Sheremetyevo. He's flying in with Moris.

I thought they'd arrived yesterday! I guess it were only the ladies, then. :laugh:
 
US ladies.. oh dear. Ashley solid as a rock. Mariah 2 falls. Karen total wreck. Fall after fall. Mess.
 
Figured you guys would understand this feeling... :hpull:

Totally! Friend of mine is coming over the weekend, but she's with another friend and they're staying in a hotel. I got my apologies in (really had forgotten all about Worlds when we agreed on a date!!!) and I promised to meet her later on Saturday evening (when I won't be able to think about anything else but skating) :laugh:

Was here from 8:15 to 6:15 and decided I was too tired to stay (for ice dance). Plus I didn't move around enough. When I stood up my body was in the shape of a chair. I was so mesmerized by the skating, I realized I didn't even eat anything except for a piece of chocolate...Then I got on the wrong bus to go to the hotel. Thank goodness for nice Finnish bus drivers.

2 more arena things seats are comfortable but don't have arms; no safety railings to hang onto as you go up and down the stairs to your seats. I know, not an issue for everyone. Just mentioning.

ETA -- Sorry No Name Face; Never got to finish. Internet down. I will probably not make it to the ice dance because the days are so long. Yesterday id was from 7 pm - 11:00 pm; today 6:30 pm to 9:45 pm.

Well, they are both great.
In fact, Alina did 3Lz-3Lo-3Lo in warm-up at both Junior Nationals and Junior Worlds :D

Take care of yourself, Arriba. It's only practices, you should rest for the real deal. Drink a lot and remember to wander around to get that blood circulation going again!
 
Pogo's SP -- yes!

ETA -- Fiery run through from Queen Anna. Looked good except for a bobble on the 2A. Just love it when she goes into the step sequence and the techno starts. She looked really into it!

Practice notes: Medvedeva and Tursynbaeva do dueling 3S3T3T;

Anna and Zhenya looking quite strong. Elizabet also had a clean SP RT. Looking forward to tomorrow. I just hope I can actually catch it online since I'll be working.
