2021 Skate America: Women's Short Program

[Weathergal]

I hate to say it, but if Starr still hasn't upgraded her 3T-3T, she should at least be getting positive GOE for it. Beautiful dress and singing though.

Other ones that I like are Fly, Choros and Primavera, it's a nice change from Experience if skaters want dramatic violin+piano so much.

My favorite piece happens to be Run, wish more skaters would use it

Love the glittery on Starr's dress, esp during the spins! I found myself enjoying the combination of her skating and her singing ... I thought it would detract, but it enhanced her performance for me. Nicely done!

Starr is average and have not improve since her apparence in Senior. She is ok but not phenomenon. Wonder why she have never improve with all those years

 

[Lamente Ariane]

I have already eaten way too much trail mix and it's not even the second group, I need to stop. Anyway, about what I expected from Starr tbh.

My Star is one of the often used pieces in figure skating I can listen to again and again

Watching Amber just now, I thought of Kevin Aymoz. I think Amber is as emotional a skater as Kevin is. Yet Kevin has been able to channel himself into a substantial competitive career (Last night notwithstanding) Could Amber ever do that, with the right coaching and support? Or has the ship already sailed?

As an emotional pianist who used to be an inconsistent piano competitor and later became known in my 20s for consistency after (finally) getting professional help and gradually learning to not fear failure, I'd never say the ship has sailed. I think it's always possible for someone to turn it around.

Wow! That was a lovely skate from Starr! She spins so, so fast, and her flying camel spin jumped out for me. The combination wasn't great, but the other two jumps were solid. Also, I see she was the vocalist for the song; she has a lovely singing voice. A very talented young lady!

 

[yelyoh]

Same about the combo but a nice program for Starr. And that voice!!!!!

 

[anonymoose_au]

I see Sasha!

Phew! And eek!

I hope her injury is better!

 

[Ichatdelune]

I'm still waiting a program on nuvole bianche or divinere (it was on the first part on Medvedeva's olympic program that she ditched though).

There is a Russo-Cypriot team that uses a version of Nuvole Bianche with lyrics for their FD

 

[Zora]

Sinitsyna had by far the most interesting music choice so far. I wish they would ban vocals again.

Mark H, you fool! Never call someone a favourite this early on!

Kaori and Sasha skating back to back? Nice.

 

[LiamV426]

I love "At Last" as a song but for some reason thought it made for a dull program. It's cool that Starr sang it herself though!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Quick somebody bring me an oxygen tank (starts hyperventilating)

 

[EdgeCall]

Oh Sasha, you do not really want to be there, do you?

 

[alexocfp]

In for Kaori and to see Trusova give it a go.

 

[text_skate]

Love Satokos dress. She can wear grey, blueish. Great colour.
