2018 Olympic Figure Skating Team Event Day 3

[Ylyzybyth]

GO KAORI!!!! I'm so excited!! I can't believe she's on Olympic ice!!

 

[OS]

I actually agree with Mirai's PCS. Not too much performance there.

I have no problem with it if they kept the standard consistent. When you have that get 64, and Alina get 75 then yeah HUGE problem!!

 

[icybear]

What an olympics moment for Mirai! She totally deserved this. My only problem is she was so invested in the jumps till the last second her artistry was so flat

 

[kresslia]

Kaori misses the combo and just laughs. She's so cute.

 

[zanadude]

Well, if you're going to choke, now's the time...

 

[chopinskate]

That's the first time this season I've seen Kaori falter.

 

[rollerblade]

"Nagasu becomes 2nd US woman to land 3A"

will be the headline tomorrow all over the US

especially with all the Harding talk this year

No. The headlines will be Nagasu is the first US ladies to land 3A at the Olympics!

 

[risingtrot]

Yes! A triple axel Olympic moment for Mirai! With or without team medals I am sure she is very happy. So happy for Mirai~ She's work hard for it and never relied on questionable PCS scoring to boost her scoring.

 

[Lissy]

I'm so glad she got herself a red Amelie dress. Much better than the grey dress earlier this year.

Mirai Mirai Mirai! Bravo! Could not have asked for more from her, either. Amazing job.

 

[chopinskate]

I have no problem with it if they kept the standard consistent. When you have that get 64, and Alina get 75 then yeah HUGE problem!!

True.

 

[HollyRose]

I know this is sacrilege, but Mirai is so flat and expressionless while skating. She's such a joyful, vibrant person, so I don't get it.

Congratulations, though, other than that! Great to see her so happy.

Now go Kaori!! One of my new favorites.

 

[Lenny318]

If Mirai's history making skate ends up 5th in this group I will be fury

 

[readernick]

Well, if you're going to choke, now's the time...

It is really is. Totally no pressure on Kaori, Japan can't medal.

 

[Silvia451]

I love this music so much...Yann Tiersen is a genius

 

[#1Kerryfan]

I loved the US team's reaction to Mirai's program

 

[Winnie_20]

Terrific... just when Kaori gets on the ice, the audio goes all wonky.

 

[Leppis]

I have no problem with it if they kept the standard consistent. When you have that get 64, and Alina get 75 then yeah HUGE problem!!

Not saying that Alina deserves 75, but her program is filled with transitions and choreo unlike Mirai's.

 

[begin]

The speed out of Kaori's jumps is a sight for sore eyes. She better get her GOEs!

 

[readernick]

God, I hate this program so much. I like Kaori but this is terrible. Her SP is so lovely too. Why did they do this?
