Wow, lots of power and she is able to control it!

My first look at Aleksa VOLKOVA CAN
@4everchan are you feeling up to check in today?

 

[TT_Fin]

Nataly's dress looks similar she used at Istanbul so it means it is her own now.

 

[Dawn825]

Inga's getting a costume deduction for me...

 

[YuBluByMe]

I hope Gurgenidze will move up and challenge for the podium. She’s the only skater that can break up another Japan-Korea matchup at JGPF. Not that I mind that at all, but I just want to see if she can do it.

I like Aleksa's dress. Colors are magenta bodice and teal green skirt. Music is Sign of the Times. Very neat and tidy jumper. Problems on lutz and flip. Rotates the 3L may be under. Beautiful bauer and spins. This music is not really the best fit for her style, I feel.

Did you see anything from your seat?

The fog was definitely seen from the stands, particularly to the left from judges side, but overall skaters were generally visible.

 

[Jeanie19]

Aleksa. Really pretty dress. Good skating skills and spins. So sad that the jumps weren't on, because she is a good skater.

This really is not Aleksa's season Wonder if it's just puberty or if there was an injury. Either way, I am wondering if Skate Canada has not made a big mistake in sending her here. She was in tears yesterday and she looks close to tears today too, this must really be a big hit to her confidence.

Mia is going up in results.

Just as well, Aleksa's jumps were not on.

Ted says this is a confidence issue and that he has faith in her.

Nataly LANGERBAUR EST in powder blue skates to Je t’aime by Lara Fabian. Tall and leggy, her first jumps are landed but under review. She is very striking on the ice, but needs more extension on her spirals and toe point.

BTW - I don't do every jump and spin level cuz thats what protocols are for and I can't type that fast. I just do quick impressions.

 

[Jeanie19]

Nataly. Really pretty shade of blue, pretty dress. Good skate.

A bit tight today, just a number of issues with rotations. She's a lovely skater to watch and always nicely packaged, but not necessarily a natural jumper.

 

[bartlebooth]

Nataly is getting used to her new skates quite fast!
ETA She got many underrotations, her Tes went down
