[WeakAnkles]

Not just badly mismatched-to-skin-tone illusion fabric, but SEAMED badly mismatched-to-skin-tone-illusion fabric.

Why was that layback only level1? Seemed okay to me

Kailani has a new dress! I think I liked the other one better, though.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Heeeere comes Group Aussie!

Go ladies!

 

[aname]

Oh, I see the first skater with only one triple is still the leader in TES

Hey it's Pogo's music from last season!

Oh dear a fall!

 

[Sai Bon]

Is it just me? Brooklee's jumps look rather scary (and she fell)...

Yay Brooklee is first one to get level4s!

 

[balabam]

Brooklee Han - this is different level of skating comparing to 1st group. How much should be components difference?

 

[xeyra]

Love the color of Alicia's dress. It's not often you see this color on FS dresses. Usually it's black, blue, red or pink/purple.

 

[aname]

...and we're back to the lost levels galore.

Had to fight for some jumps, but her strongest int'l skate so far. She nods and smiles

[Dr. Jenn]

I don't think that I've ever seen Alicia skate before, but she has some nice qualities (e.g., spin positions). She showed good fight on the jumps. I like her dress too!

 

[xeyra]

Ziquan bringing the beautiful dresses!

Ziquan bringing the popcorn, alongside the beautiful dresses.

Ziquan bringing the beautiful dresses!

Yes, classy dress. But as soon as I saw it I knew her music would be tango. Shame they have milonga (fast music) in 2nd half, when she's clearly tired.

That final layback was really pretty.
