2023 JGP Bangkok Jr. Women's Free Skate

[lariko]

Good competition, and I am really happy to see a solid 3A this early in the season.

 

[cheerknithanson]

Just barely won!

 

[icewhite]

3 great medallists.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Whoa just barely hangs on for gold! All that praying worked (and my predictions are maybe saved)

 

[Lamente Ariane]

All right, until tomorrow (if I can get up)

 

[Ichatdelune]

Hmm... I'll just say I was hoping for more, oh well time to watch RG worlds now

Exactly my thought!!! All my prayer circles worked

And they're not showing the medal ceremony!?

i did well enough in women this time around but i'll make up for it in men and dance

 

[lariko]

I am getting tired of Nakai being propped. Oh, well. Kim deserved to win gold here, having had delivered clean performance and highest tech.

And they're not showing the medal ceremony!?

Indeed, that was a rather abrupt cut out.

Ami winning with the Jenny Kirk tribute

I have the top 4 right, and Ruichen missed out on giving me any points by less than a point, so I'm not mad today. - Waiting for the men to mess with me tomorrow

 

[elektra blue]

see you tomorrow for the men. i won't be able to watch dance, so keep note of some remarkable costume love you all

 

[milkgirl]

Where is the victory ceremony?

 

[lady_bee]

I am happy not only for Ami bet also her coach. Mr. Nakaniwa.
He is one of the new generation Japanese coaches, and now showing us the future.

I've definitely medaled in men before when it's so chaotic that my low score still ends up being one of the best so there's always hope!!

I agree, beautiful 3A. Nakai was just boring to watch in both days..

 

[Dawn825]

I got chills when Ami's music came on, what am unexpected choice. I was rooting for her and she looked lovely.

 

[RatedPG]

Great job, not letting to pop affect the rest of the skate!

With these results, Both Ami and Yo will keep their 2nd JGP assignments


Edit: forgot about Ami's SP lead, thought she'd get silver for sure

Sorry. What makes you think this. Didn’t Ikura do better last year and she didn’t get a second assignment? I’m not sure if Ikura had two spots and then lost the spot when they went from 7 to 6 JGP events?
I actually thought Yo would lose her second spot after I saw her place 4th at this event.
Don’t we have Mao, Ayumi, Ikura, Kaoro (sp), Rena that could get two spots instead. To me, Yo is the 7th best skater from Japan. Are all of them secure with getting two spots? If I was Japan federation, I would like to give an 8th skater, a chance to compete.
Edit: I forgot Haruna has a spot too. So, that means there are 15 spots for 8 skaters. One has to only skate once. So, if all 7, all place higher than 4th place with a higher score, doesn’t that mean Yo might not get the second slot?

I’m happy Ami won. I knew when she screwed up her 3A, that she would do too many 2A’s. I actually thought she would lose the gold medal due to this mistake. But, she just barely won.
I much prefer Ami. He jumps are so much bigger and she has more flow and skates faster than the Korean skaters. I’m saying this, despite me thinking Ami is one of the weaker PCS girls from Japan out of the ones they are sending to Grand Prix.
Note to her coach, please train Ami to adjust her jumps based on what happens with her first element. This happened a Nationals and now here. Could end up being costly in the future.
