???? Judges what.

 

[Skatefan15]

I can’t with these judges. But, go Wakaba!!

Everyone gets a 29 in PCS apparently.

 

[Jontor]

Here we go. Higuchi!!

 

[anonymoose_au]

Go Wakaba!

3A, but with a fall.

Le sigh, not the day for triple axels today

Yuhana Yokoi is one of those skaters that creeps up on you. You know she is good (because, hey, all Japanese skaters at this level are good!), but you don't automatically think of her as one of the favourites.

But, she has really put herself in the mix here with that performance.

Into third, but only a couple of points off the leader.

Side eyes judges. But once again I guess as long as everyone is judged to the same standard...

Although don't higher season's bests help when it comes to getting a choice of GP events?

Japanese federation loves to underscore their own skaters. Which really is a bit ironic given that (as a group) they have the best SS in the world.....

 

[TripleAxelQueens3]

Shame about the 3A but this program is just soooooo good!!!!

The "3" button is broken

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Forget the fall, that was give her all the PCS!

Don't say that just yet, I'm extremely nervous right now

 

[Jontor]

Yay Higuchi! Pity about that 3A but she is sppp good...

 

[anonymoose_au]

Whoo!! Loved the ending!

Although Wakaba looks different...or am I mixing up skaters? Is there another Wakaba?

 

[Skatefan15]

Her PCS should be about 34 or so, but we know the judges won’t do that. The axel attempt wasn’t too bad, but I hope she can land it in the free. The combo was good!

Now I'm thinking the StSq4 Kawabe Mana got was a mistake by the TP or something, so far literally nobody else got a level 4
