2021 Worlds: Ladies' Short Program

[lariko]

I am still celebrating how well Schizas did in the short. Really good job for the first time in such a huge outing, and still in third before the last two groups, that’s certainly a cause to celebrate!
Also, huge props to Taljegard for keeping Swedish flag in the mix! She must be getting tons of national congratulations now!

 

[readernick]

Wow. Keegan is such an incredible spinner!

 

[LadyB]

And now for the real deal!!! Davai, my Russian beauties. I'm sure Liza is the appropriate person to get the heat going.

 

[Astolat]

Ryabova skates to "Mambo Italiano"! That should cheer us up.

 

[lariko]

Omg, Keegan! That was energetic spin!

She is. Swedish ladies have really struggled the last couple of seasons so her doing so well is verry exiting to us

Yay Natasha qualified! I actually didn’t know that she learned all her triples in her 20’s.

Wow Karen Chen. The judges still love her. I am no expert but I thought the back end of the combo looked underrotated. I hope the judges are consistent but I guessnot fair for those who fully rotate. Still Karen is in the hung. Which means Bradie might score 78 if clean? Great debut for the Canadian girl Schizas. Might have sent Gabby Daleman as the second Canadian. Emily B's strong suit isthe short program right now. But she probably won't be skating in the final. Pretty good skating right now from eveyone.

 

[SaraM]

so who will be going for the 3axel? Rika, Liza and sasha?

 

[Ichatdelune]

I'm feeling down, how am I supposed to stay up the night feeling like this... oh look my darling's on the practice cam

 

[ioanablabla]

We will see the next groups too, right?

I hear something about certain groups not being live or something.... what was that?

 

[lariko]

Why do the russians have FSR instead of russian flag??
havent been catching up on FG news lately...

It appears Figure Skating became its own sovereign country in Russia, because it stands for Figure Skating Federation of Russia (not sure where the second F goes), consequently giving the athletes the title, Athlete of the Figure Skating Federation of Russia. They are now titled like nobility, lol...

She is. Swedish ladies have really struggled the last couple of seasons so her doing so well is verry exiting to us

and norwegian ladies are non existent after the Gjersem twins retired..

I personally would've picked Alison Schumacher as the second Canadian, since she's so consistent. Schizas was great, though. Bausback was OK, too bad it looks like she won't be making the free.

And now for the real deal!!! Davai, my Russian beauties. I'm sure Liza is the appropriate person to get the heat going.

And—may she do it today for Mae Berenice. True royalty has to stick together!

 

[brakes]

All the naysayers for Karen taking a spot in Worlds can suck it.
She's the most talented US skater, period.

The sad part about the rink is that’s what all the JGP crowds look like. JW is rarely better. ISU needs to promote junior comps more.

 

[LadyB]

Sashushka!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[florin]

hate making such first comment (hi everyone, btw ), but i'm confuse - did Karen have UR or not?
