Whoo triple axel! She's so happy

 

[Interspectator]

Only 61 �� too low

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Clean 3A!

All jumps landed! Ayakaaaaa!

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN HIDING THIS WOMAN ALL THESE YEARS???!!! :shocked:

I absolutely LOVED that!!!!

And I am somebody who is hard to please when it comes to "Por Una Cabeza" routines, after seeing the bench mark that is Anna Pogo's 2016-17 SP to it.

WELL DONE AYAKA-san!!!!

Well, her combo is only 3S3T, and the toe looks UR in the replay. Plus levels and all that.

 

[Danny T]

Oh no, Rin :sad21:

Great dress though, the underskirt rainbow sure looks nice when spinning :agree:

True... but what a revelation!

Rin is not having a good day

 

[cohkaix]

on no...Rin-chan

 

[Yuzuruu]

Rin has a beautiful dress though [emoji7]

OK, continuing the Hosoda conversation

Because her ISU Bio is empty, I just looked at her Rink Results Bio:

http://www.rinkresults.com/skater?skater_id=3527

Now, I know this is probably not complete, but it looks like she has been competing at Nationals level for 10 years, but has never competed internationally.

Well, I think it is about time she did get some Senior B allocations. Because she is more than good enough to justify them!

EDIT: Just noticed, at the bottom of her ISU Bio it says she did the Crystal Skate back in 2009. And she finished 7[SUP]th[/SUP] out of 21, after being 8[SUP]th[/SUP] in each segment. (Results on Wikipedia)​

Yep I understand how you feel haha It just feels like she should score higher, it's a triple axel! But rationally, well, the maths says otherwise

Perhaps Universiade candidate?

 

[Danny T]

Aww she messed up the last spin :hopelessness: Her coaches and her reaction are too cute though

 

[cohkaix]

I think this is the last season of Miyu....(oh, good she made it to FS!!)

Wakana did well! But needs more expression for the music

 

[Danny T]

OMG, Wakana :eeking: That was fantastic!

And damn, a Yamada student without any technique problem :shocked:

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Perhaps Universiade candidate?

Good idea. Reward her for her long service by giving her the chance to finally compete in a Major Championship, but not one where the results count towards slot allocations for next season.

But, the problem could be that there are plenty of other better-known skaters that would be eligible. And the Fed could use the Universiade as a consolation for them not getting onto the Worlds or 4 Continents teams.

It'll be interesting to see what happens.
