Of course they had to cut the gorgeous Morricone piece for Maria in Buenos Aires, apparently the guy from West Side story still hasn't been able to find her

Buenos Aires is a big city after all

I think it would help Uliana immensely to work on her skating skills. Her jumps are mostly solid, but more speed would really help with getting higher GOE. Unusual mistake for her, but costly. Better to do one combination in the first half than loose it completely when something happens.

she needs to switch coaches for that to happen

Why is she still backloading all her combos? I didnt understand why she was doing it back during the 21-22 season and I still dont get it now. She is normally very consistent, shame about the pop
The biggest issue she has is the same issue that kept her middle of the pack in Russia even when she was going clean over and over again which is performance. I still hope she improves that part of her skating cause she could do so well then.

Heh, Barton’s tripping.

and on that note... i will be going to work. so happy it's friday... it's been an intense week as I am training someone to take over one of my jobs and they need more power, flow and speed.... they don't UR though.

Not a terrible skate, but Sofja will be disappointed, she's capable of more. Good jumper, good spinner, but just didn't quite work out

when even the Japanese start making confused program and cutting their music with a machete you know the world is about to end. Rena did well tough
