2018-19 U.S. Ladies' figure skating

Some of Bradie's long program has been posted!: https://www.instagram.com/p/BmFQe2OlbxO/?taken-by=skater_on_ice

Unfortunately, almost the entire middle section of the program is missing in these clips but you can see the beginning and the ending and get an idea of the program! (Also the 3lutz-3loop is shown again :) )
As far as the dress, she wore this one on Stars On Ice for her "This is me" program so I don't think this will be her final dress for competitions.
 
Bradie's new 3Lz-3Lo combo just as exciting as Alina doing jumps within the first minute of the program :laugh:

I tell you what, Bradie really has nice speed across the ice. In that way, she reminds of a young Gracie Gold. If she keeps this up, I can definitely see her keeping her title and possibly getting on the podium at Worlds.

Yes, she has remarkable speed. Now let’s make the new dresses perfect.i am happy and excited with her progress.
 
It sounds like she’s meshed the Ballet music, the 1968 movie and the 1996 movie. It’s a little jarring.
 
Great news! Brady's 3lz3lo seems pretty solid. With this at least one US lady stand a chance against the russian-japanese dominance. Good for the sport. However, PCS wise she will loose points.
 
I was there tonight too, and Brandie looks really, really good. Lots of speed and control and that triple lutz/ triple loop looks marvelous. I liked the program. She deffinetally matured . Been an Olympian and a champion, for sure it boosts your confidence.
I also liked Courtney’s program. Soft music , delicate and different from what we usually see from her. She missed her combo. Her spins improved too. .the place was packed. I might try to go and watch their long programs tomorrow.

She was working all last year on her Triple lutz/triple loop.

Bradie looks like a different skater! Such beautiful movement in those first few seconds of the program. I can't wait to see the rest.
 
I wish Bradie would ditch that schoolmarm hairdo. It makes her look 10 years older than she is.
 
You're definitely not alone. Bradie has so much promise that I wish she'd get a real costumer to design for her Like Nancy did.

There is so much much to work with/so much potential. I wonder what a Lisa McKinnon costume would look like on Bradie. I know its not everyone's taste but I also love the costume designer for Shoma, Marin, Mai, etc. Lots of embellishment (which I usually am not a huge fan of) but always looks amazing on the ice.

I think discussing styling choices is ok - it's relevant to their packaging.

Thanks Andromache!
 
^ Maxine Bautista. She’s from Chicago and used to train with Alex O; now with Tom Z. I met her once; she seemed very sweet.

I was talking with Maxine's mom last night and got the impression she is still with Alex. Very nice young lady. She was in CO. for one of the USFSA training camps this summer, but I'm pretty sure she still trains in the Chicago area. She came in 4th in Philadelphia. I have yet to see the results from that competition either. Maybe it takes a while...She was skating on the senior level last year and missed going to Nats by a hair!

Speaking of Bradie's costumes. There is a wonderful designer in the Chicago area who worked with Gracie. I would love to see what she would design for Bradie, although I really liked the costume she wore for the FS last night.

Adding -- the designer of many Japanese costumes is Satomi Ito. Her costumes are stunning. https://www.instagram.com/stm_ito/
