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

Matteo has definitely his Dad's mouth and eyes

 

[yume]

Great

Shiqi's hair piece is very pretty! I loved her stsq

 

[Jumping_Bean]

The Chinese girls are very well-rounded skaters, even if basically all of them are missing triple-triple combinations (often even 2A+3T combos), but once they get those, there's a serious contingent of podium contenders there (even if everyone else skates their best too).

No another + COMBO

How tall is she? She looks statuesque

Yolanda. Pretty dress and a pretty program. A few mistakes, but still a good skate.

 

[yume]

I would be ok with skaters not picking the lion king or Wakanda forever music anymore. They always do generic moves.

How tall is she? She looks statuesque

Jolanda?

Her ISU Bio says 165 cm, which is 5ft 5in.

So, not as tall as you would think.

Sofi. Pretty dress and I like the music. Not the skate she wanted, but she has potential.

Jolanda?

Her ISU Bio says 165 cm, which is 5ft 5in.

So, not as tall as you would think.

CaroLiza_fan

Still taller than me! I would have guessed that she was at least 170 cm, but maybe she's just very leggy, or she had a growth spurt recently (she's 17).

 

[yume]

Nice basics but jumps were just not there. The 2A looked promising though, with good distance. Too much speed on the 3S.

 

[bartlebooth]

As a Korean skater, Jia Shin is of course impeccably dressed

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Since he just used it again three times in one breath, is it just me, or does anybody else think it strange when Mark talks about "humans", rather than people?

Go Jia

Was that thing tied to her hand always there? Its kinda distracting , I definitely didnt notice it last time

Shame about the hand down on the combo but she fought hard not to go down on it, the rest was perfect as always
