[xeyra]

OMG yes!!!!!!

Satoko Miyahara

Good landing on the 3Lo to open. 3Lz+3T looks clean (might be < on the 3Lz). Solid 3F landing as well. Strong flying camel spin with the donut and a well-centered combo spin (Level 4). Good, floying edges through the step seqeuence (Level 4). Clean 3Lz+2T+2Lo with a few tanos. And a solid 2A+3T as well and a spot-on 3S. Great forward spiral in the choreo. A wonderful 2A and a stupendous layback spin to finish (Level 4).

What a dramatic yet wonderful breath of fresh air. She may be small in size but she doesn't skate small. Great carriage and much cleaner jumps than she usually does, with no under-rotations it seems. Satoko is like a hummingbird, so quick and light, but she was able to carry the story and the music of Madame Butterfly. She might podium with this program if there are mistakes by the top...

I don’t think I like Carolina’s new dress that much more than the lizard suit, about the only thing I can say for it is that at least it’s not day-glo green

So I had to go pick up my mom immediately after Gabby skated.

I had a hard time driving through the tears.

Gabby, you are still my favourite skater. You still have a perfect Olympic moment, and you still have an Olympic Gold, and it was still you who brought it home for Canada. You still have so much going for you, and I never ever ever want you to doubt yourself, because you are the Queen.

 

[flaneur]

aww. somebody made her a stuff bunny with her costume that is dedication

 

[shiroKJ]

Wow! They're giving it to her Now please fix those jumps

 

[anonymoose_au]

That was really nice!

Still can't see the underrotations though the jumps look OK to me, but then I don't know nothin'.

WOOOOAHHHH HUGE SCORE!!

And the rabbit plushy in her costume is cuteness itself!

 

[rollerblade]

I'm never nervous watching Satoko skate. It's so calm and peaceful.

Except when I want her to nab a medal.

 

[Sophie-Anna]

Beautiful. Her jumps might not be the best but she skated 2 beautiful clean programs without any big errors at the Olympics. That is something to be proud of. Also, she is one of the most consistent skaters I know.

 

[gravy]

HOLY sht. Insane score. Well deserved!

 

[GGFan]

Go tiny queen!!!!!!!

 

[Anni234]

good score for Satoko

 

[Ylyzybyth]

Did anyone else find the bright white laces on her yellowed skates distracting?

My retinas are totally done for.

 

[Fruit Loops]

i'd be shocked if Kaetlyn can beat that

I love Osmond and want her to get bronze but I agree. She's not exactly a "in the clutch" performer.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Grandma Kostner time!

 

[twirlingblades]

wow!

 

[Crystal7]

Her coaches seemed to be really angry...

 

[BlackAxel]

As long as Carolina isnt overscored, I think Satoko has the bronze (at least). Just cant see Kaitlyn getting the job done, especially with that poorly choreographed Black Swan program.

 

[msaidi]

Go Caro pleas make me dream with your grace !!
