Good for you Ms Bell! Ben is thrilled for her. Said how much she has been working on her 3-3s. Praised her speed, flow over the ice and choreo from Shae-Lin Bourne.

Orange is a choice. I couldn’t pull it off. I’d look like a corpse.

 

[Jammers]

Mariah may have just punched her ticket to Beijing.

 

[Hyena]

Okay, hear me out: Adam should coach Alysa.

 

[rain]

yay Mariah Bell. Another of my favourite American ladies. I really appreciate someone who cares so much about performing the program.

Great job, Mariah! That was lovely. The 3-3 was a bit sketchy, but the rest was great.

Two minor aesthetic nit-picks:
1) I don't feel like her hairstyle goes with her costume or her program.
2) I wish that she would tape/tuck in her laces.

Skaters usually do that because its a safety hazard, I can't remember noticing her laces 'free' like that in prior evennts; perhaps she forgot or something. *At the 87 Europeans Grinkov/Gordeeva were DQed because the strap on his pants that holds the pant down came loose.

Mariah, that could make me watch ladies' skating.

Jumps landed, positions held, and joy on the ice. Job Well Done.
