2021 Cranberry Cup International

Couldn't see much of Alyssa's skate, but unfortunately could hear the music and it started to get on my nerves. Not a fan. Good for her though to get this win.
 
She must have jumped something big to be so much before You who jumped 3A...

I think there was a back-loaded 3-3 there, and don't forget we are in the US and Alysa is the US's podium shot this year and Young You is not an American so I wouldn't be surprised if there was some home-cooked scoring, but then again at this point we can't really judge Alysa's FS since the stream was so bad
 
Protocols are up. Alysa did not attempt a quad and her 3a attempt was downgraded. Other jumps looked okay except for a q on the 3lz-3t
 
I'm back for the final group (but virtually) 🙌. I'm not surprised Amber withdrew; I was able to feel the floor vibrations when she fell during her warm-up (I was sitting really close to her). Wishing her a speedy recovery!
She had a condition with her leg/foot before she got on the ice. It says it in her statement she posted about the withdraw!

As a classically trained pianist with lots of classically trained violinist friends, it was (quite literally) music to my ears. I stopped watching Alysa and just sat back to enjoy the virtuosic display of violinistic prowess.
 
I was comparing both of Alysa's layouts (Sun Valley & Cranberry), they did change a lot of stuff. And I wonder if that was probably NOT the best strategy given that she was skating in Cranberry 1 week after the layout they prepared before. I hope Jeremy sees this and makes a plan for her. She is capable of a lot more.
 
Couldn't watch not even a third of Alysa's program with this terrible stream. She seemed to be in good spirits but not as confident as yesterday. I think her team knows that she has to work a lot on her FS. So I'm really looking forward to Nebelhorn.
