Mone is back! What an incredible clean skate for her!

 

[elektra blue]

that was great! i'm so happy that she's back!

 

[LazyFuzai]

Not bad,but she should really work on her face expression.

 

[4everchan]

waaaa! that last spin !!!!! awesome!

 

[EdgeCall]

A bit cautious during the jumps in the beginning but then she fired up!

 

[hermine17]

My favourite skate so far!!!!!!

 

[YuBluByMe]

Wow! That was the best I seen Chiba skate. Looks like the injury isn’t bothering her anymore and she kicked that step sequence’s ass. Beautiful layback at the end too. Best skate for me so far.

this program is so so good for Mone, it's attention grabbing and energetic! and this skate was super clean so the program's potential really shined, especially the more she got into it! i'm happy she's back. well done, Mone!

 

[4everchan]

Mone is great. Her choreographer is Lori Nicol, they both have skills to do so much better than gypsy music french chanson. Dress is Sasha inspired. Such a great skater.

oh Yuna you've got to work on your rotations, I know you can rotate these jumps but it's just like NHK all over again... I love her skating, she is so unique and choreographed this program herself.

 

[elektra blue]

she's happy

 

[hermine17]

I love this program. It's clear that each and every move has a meaning for Yuna.

i love Yuna's programs this year, especially since she did the choreo herself! a nice, clean skate, a an under rotation here and there i think, but she's just so passionate in her movements, it's captivating! her love for these programs really shows <3 congrats Yuna!!
