2019 European Championships Ladies Free Skate

I still don't understand why some of you Americans have access to the excellent ISU-Eurovision (commentary free) and some of you don't. All Canadians have access for free through cbc or the ISU website.

Because in the USA, NBC(SportsGold) has purchased the rights to broadcast/stream Europeans, so the ISU livestream is geoblocked. However, if you use a proxy/VPN and set it to Canada (or another country without rights) then you can get it since you're disguising your true USA location. Anybody else who didn't purchase SportsGold and doesn't have a VPN with an appropriate country setting, has to depend on the unofficial streams (Russian, Chinese are working so far) for their livestream.

For those who have cable/satellite with NBCSN in their regular package, they are broadcasting Europeans but on a delay basis.

I thought Nicole might slay, but no. She made few mistakes already too.... PCS will be highest though.

 

[linps]

This looks promising.

Spoke too early

 

[cathlen]

Spoke too early

Yup, definitely.

Compared with what we've seen before, this wasn't bad at all, though.

I swear.. it could be the happiest french song in history and it would still sound like I needed to cry into an alcoholic beverage while hugging my dog.

All thanks goes to awesome Russians who feel our pain and don't mind sharing with the less than fortunate!

And after Natasha, Nicole has taken it up another step.

I hope this trend continues to the end of the group

Me? Biased? Never! :sarcasm:

Nicole Schott, it can be seen she is good, but sometimes you just haven't your day (your competition).

 

[Fluture]

Oh, I love the music. :luv17:

Yes, and we are temporarily sewing maple leaves on our lapels. :-D Gorgeous country, Canada, but from way down South, I'm very happy I'm not shoveling snow right about now.

After the speed and power of Tarakanova, Galustyan is kinda bland with this music. EDIT: Ouch, harsh fall!

 

[Fluture]

Oh no, that fall looked really painful...

 

[TheBallerina]

Auch that was a bad fall :sad21:

 

[Fluture]

Okay, this part of the music reminds me of a Russian lady again. I spend too much time watching their programs.

That was a hard fall but she had some good jumps in there, too. I like her, even though she‘s still a bit slow.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

So, a collision in the Warm-Up, and a faceplant in the actual routine.



I jinxed her!

What a strange fall. I can't remember the last time I saw somebody do a faceplant like that.

But, you know what, apart from that fall, it was a really good performance.

I have my fingers crossed that it'll be enough for the lead.

[Phireye]

She has a freedom of expression that reminds me a bit of Mariah Bell

 

[newyn]

Oh no she's hurt!

 

[tabsy]

I enjoyed that! Shame about that fall

Seems like a lot of programs are using that second piece - though Avonley/Vadym are the first to come to mind
