As if there weren't enough reasons to love Mark, now it turns out he is also a Yanni fan! His wife is one lucky lady

Ruiyang. Pretty pink and blue dress. Some really good elements, good spins.

She could be China's next star if she develops the tech and keep her style

The music sucked; it sounded snow globe music. But the skater was lovely.

Not quite the skate she might have wanted, but very good nonetheless. Patient and calm, with very pretty spins and movements. She needs to work a bit more on getting flow out of her jumps and on solidifying more difficult triples, but she's very promising

how about NiNI? burn out already?

 

[EdgeCall]

Another case of not-quite-there-yet. The sweetness sucks you in, the mistakes kick you out. But it looks promising.

 

[elektra blue]

oh look, a macaron

To be honest I never got the hype around An Xiangyi...

Sorry I did not concentrate, are these two Chinese girls siblings?

 

[labgoat]

sorry, but the music is so

I'd rather listen to Yanni than all those dreary apocalyptic pieces. Plus I thought she was lovely and enchanting

 

[Ichatdelune]

Sorry I did not concentrate, are these two Chinese girls siblings?

Think not, Zhang is a common surname and one was born in Jilin while the other was born in Beijing

You hate snow globes?

sorry, but the music is so

And another one

[Jeanie19]

Mengqi. Pretty dress. Good skate and spins.

This is a pretty dress too Almost perfect skate apart from the step-out. Interesting that she has a 3Lz, but no 3F or 3Lo.

Some random granny gif to keep you awake even with all these funeral music choices:
