2022 JGP Solidarity Cup Women's Free Skate

That last note shattered my bifocals but I've been wanting snazzy new frames so I guess it's a blessing in disguise.

Wonderful to see teenagers listening to Streisand in 2022!

Great strong skate! Like the dress.

This dress is gorgeous, she looks like a fairy princess Her jumping technique is quite good (except for her Axel technique, that one is scary), she's definitely a huge talent for Canada.

I can't believe this is still going on. I think I watched three disciplines at Nepela in the meantime.
Well, here I am, go young ladies!

This is a great skate for her! Is Clare theoretically eligible for senior 4CC and World's cuz she's 15, even though she's in the jgp?

A bit shaky start on the combo, but then she skated the lights out. Well done Clare

Claire is so good, I just want her to leave Colorado and Tammy please

I have thoughts on the choreography and composition of this program. The most fast-paced and iconic piece of Winter comes first, with no build-up, right when she's doing her hardest jumps. There's little choreo to match the music. Then we cut to a much gentler, softer piece of music that is gorgeous but takes away from the momentum of the program. Finally, we have a very fast-pieced and dynamic section... for one spin. No choreo sequence, no unique movement, just jump into spin and done. It could be so effective with Clare's speed and grace but it falls so flat and feels so empty.

Clare. Beautiful dress. Really good skate and program.

I have given up on cloning myself I learned from last season that multitasking is not working for me

Every time I see Tammy Gambill, I wonder if she wears Febreze instead of perfume.

Seo's skating is clean, pure, and precise. Mark has also made me hungry by using the word "smorgasbord."

 

[Lynse]

Good job Clare! She might have some under rotations and she is a bit slow.

Tbh, I'm not sure if staying with Tammy is the best choice for Clare. Sure, this was better than at her last JGP, but while she exemplifies some of the best qualities of Tammy's skaters, she also has some of the same issues as most/all of Tammy's other skaters.

Yesterday some of them performed at 9 o'clock in the morning (so when the training started? at 6 a.m, 5 a.m..?) Now some of them (aka most successfull as a reward) need need to wait until after 10 p.m.

Ahw yes there were carrots for Clare, the TES went down by 6 points

Jgp does not prevent to take part in big senior comps but the Tes must be reached at senior competitions.

 

[Vemvane]

Clare's skating is lovely as always. I really liked the stretch of one foot skating between her two spirals, something I hadn't noticed before, with the two counters which I presume she used to keep up momentum. Beautiful final spin as well.

Yes Clare could be eligible for 4CC and Worlds.

The Finnish skater is dressed as a glamorous lemon meringue pie and I must say, I strongly approve of this look!
