2020 Ice Star

[elektra blue]

Sorry, don't get the reference. (Thought it was a reference to the cuddly toy Viktoria got, but when I wound it back, it was an )

Not the best I've ever seen Sofia.

Goes into second. But, she's VERY close behind Guliakova. The trouble is that Safonova is even closer behind Samodurova!

Sofia is an alien in this program

Of the two Belorussian girls, I preferred Vika.

Now I'm even more puzzled as to why Safonova was in the first group and Chepeleva was in the second group.

Second of the IUSHCHENKOVA sisters next.

Go on, Alina. Do "Sk8er Boi"!!!

Chepeleva has very high jumps, shame she keeps falling out of them. And that stupid fall. Song + random step seq fall = bell vibes.

 

[elektra blue]

Scarborough fair is a nice surprise. by the look of her costume i thought she was a Jasmine. sadly her performance was a mess

 

[EdgeCall]

Three extra points for using Scarborough fair, even if the cover version was not the best.

 

[gliese]

It's almost like the illusion, layside, haircutter, biellmann is a required element jeez.

 

[Edwin]

done for today, a bit dubious about some scores, but tomorrow is a new day and new chances

if it weren't for Safonova, BLR made a very poor impression today in the women

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I think that was as far away from "Sk8er Boi" as you can get.

"Scarborough Fair". No thanks.

I preferred the wee sister.

The link in the OP is for the Day 1 stream, which got zapped not long after it finished.

There are actually 2 different YouTube channels streaming the Ice Star (the pictures are identical).

The first is by the Skating Union of Belarus:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcNAoPFf5fjNILomJRDtMcw

The second is by the Ministry Of Sports And Tourism:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTPm67eic2L4HqBPE-JFvPw

The Day 2 and Day 3 streams are still available on both channels.

If you want to get prepared, here is the link for tomorrow's stream on the Fed's channel:

Hope this helps

Thank you for the explanation! Can you please edit these into the OP? Links tend to get lost among the pages as people keep posting. I have no idea why full link lists and world clocks have completely disappeared from competition opening posts this year. It is quite frustrating. It seems I'll have to look for the time zones website yet again for this comp tomorrow, as I have no idea what the time difference is between my country and Belarus. I just don't understand why almost all OPs stopped posting it this year when this info is so useful.

I'm afraid that I don't have any editing privileges in the competition forum, so I can't do it myself. But, if one of the Mods could replace the Day 1 link stream in the OP with the links to the two channels, that would be great.

Some music with pretty dodgy lyrics being played during the Junior Men's Warm-Up.

Does nobody check in advance that the music is appropriate?!

And instead of dreaming of "For Belarus", dream of Plushy. Just like I did last night.

I gotta know, what did Plushy do in your dream (were chakras involved )

Alas I didn't dream of skaters...I think I dreamed about a zoo or something? I can't quite remember now

But I'm here! And exciting news Electra I'm cooking pasta tonight and I'm waiting for the pot to boil before putting the pasta in.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Ooo I like Alexander E's outfit.

Except...had he got a weird manbun going on there?

No wait it's like a superhigh ponytail, it looks like a palm tree!

Poor chap though, the program was more like "Jumps Impossible" than Mission Impossible.

That's my problem. I can't remember much of dreams.

For what little I can remember, see this post:

I don't think she's joining us for a while yet. But, I'm sure she'll approve.

I've just finished my breakfast - a bowl of Rice Krispies and 3 slices of toast.

"Mission Impossible"

Unfortunately for Sasha, it was an appropriate choice. Because quite a lot of what he was trying to do in that programme seemed to be impossible to do today.

He looks really down waiting for his results. Don't worry. It'll be better next time.
