I have missed something, did skaters miss their luggage? :O

Not skaters but Finair or the aeroport in Helsinki who had a strike and skaters got to Hungary finally after more than 24h but no luggage

I dont know what it is about her, maybe just her looks, but she reminds me a lot of Masha Paramonova, which makes me want root for her
Her dress is really pretty

I have missed something, did skaters miss their luggage? :O

Yes, because of Finland's airport staff walkout couple of days ago. Yesterday morning was 2000 suitcases late from passengers including Finnish and Estonian skaters. Arttu Juusola WD because of it and I read here somebody borrowed his to Estonian guy.

From what I remember, it was a Hungarian skater that had to withdraw for some unrelated reason.

So, although he didn't compete, his skates did! And Jegor did very well in them!

New skates? Ouch

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Wow, I had no idea.

Good luck to Iida skating with other skates

 

[bartlebooth]

Kudos to her! She nailed her jumping passes!

 

[norwegianfairytale]

She has another dress as well right?

 

[yume]

Didn't expect a 3F-3lo. Good job.

 

[norwegianfairytale]

You would never have guessed she skated on new skates. Well done

Iida what a skate and she managed to do all this with brand new skates, what a talented little girl

 

[Jeanie19]

Lida. Pretty blue dress. New skates she's amazing.

 

[TT_Fin]

Well those skates look very much similar she usually has so she was lucky to find similar ones. Best ever from her.

 

[yuumagical]

Good job Iida! How heroic to go out and skate in brand-new skates like that! I can't help but think that "ii da" can mean "it's good" in Japanese! xD

 

[Jumping_Bean]

She has another dress as well right?

Yep, as Mark has just confirmed. Lovely to see the solidarity among skaters.

 

[elektra blue]

Shiqi is also a cute little baozi

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Wow. Just wow!

Although he had a few mistakes, I thought Jegor did well in borrowed skates earlier.

But Iida was simply amazing in brand new skates!

Ah, didn't realise the dress was borrowed too. It suits her!

Into 7th!!! Amazing!

I'm behind so I'm watching the ice resurface featuring Valter Rizzo, he seems pretty nice as a coach

Loved the first slide and the first spin on music.
