2021 Denis Ten Memorial: Juniors Free Skates

[CaroLiza_fan]

I am in two minds about this version of "Habanera". I love the version of the music, but I don't like the vocals.

I prefer the lyrics that the Ghostly Trio sung in the "Casper" cartoon:

"Pizza, pie. I eat sardines"​

(I wonder if there was any pineapple on their pizza?)

Hang on, I want to revise what I was saying about the music. I don't like the techno version that appeared towards the end.

Skating was beautiful.

But, on the whole, I think I prefer Liza's programme.

Awww no medal ceremony?! I'm hurt stream.

I guess I should go work on my jigsaw puzzle I've been neglecting it in favour of skating!

Erm...

From a less than 3 point lead after the SP, Sofia wins by nearly 20 points.

Shows what I know!

Sofia has big fans in the stands, they even brought a big banner

I wonder what the medals here are like.

I was going to say "we'll find out in about half an hour". But the stream has just ended. So, we mightn't see the Podium Ceremonies after all.

There is supposed to be a Gala too after the Podium Ceremonies, so I hope they stream that at least!

In the meantime, I'm away back to watch Group 2 of the Junior Men.

See you all for the next skating event! It was fun to talk to you as always!

The Tayside Trophy from Dundee in Scotland starts bright and early on Wednesday morning at 07:35 GMT.

Not sure whether the streaming will actually start then, or if they will wait until later in the day, perhaps when we reach the Basic Novice skaters (16:07 GMT).

I suspect it will be later. 7 o'clock in the morning is rather early to be setting up streaming!

If you haven't gone to bed yet, they've started a separate stream for the Podium Ceremonies:

Voronov is currently giving out medals to the Junior Ladies.

I guess I should go work on my jigsaw puzzle I've been neglecting it in favour of skating!

Oooh. Looking forward to seeing how you get on. I've been avidly awaiting the next installment.

Glad to see Popov picked up a little after that unfortunate fall on 3A, though not as clean as he could be yet. Oh, well, next time! And Vinokur is as bubbly as ever. And, gosh, renewed my regrets that Dikidzhi didn’t make it in the last stage of JGP, but he seems to be recovering nicely, so, I suppose next year? Like, they will give him a junior season?

A lovely group of junior men!

Gonna go watch Kulikova and Samodelkina next and maybe flip through Gala.
