[Lamente Ariane]

I’ve had a stuffed fox waiting for Katya since 2020, maybe someday I’ll get to throw it to her

 

[CellarDweller]

Those vocal children are making me laugh.

 

[LiamForeman]

Here is the song, you be the judge. Maybe just to be safe, listen alone.

How's everyone watching? I'm on Peacock. Only allow 24 hours of replay...

Brian Orser? I thought she trained in Italy?

This season she's part-time in Italy with Turenko and part-time in Toronto with Brian, according to her bio. In the past she was in Toronto full-time, then in the pandemic she switched to Italy. And now she's added Brian back to her team.

Isabeau seems to have more lift into these jumps or more quad strength. I am not as nervous about her jumps as before. Her presentation is stronger as well. Interesting for her to portray the snake ala Madi Chock.

Snakes on a hand

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Well done Isabeau!

 

[CellarDweller]

It is me, or does Isabeau seem to be skating slowly?

Her spins seem to be on the slow side to me.

Snakes on a hand

I read the snake eyes are on her knuckles

 

[TontoK]

So, does this beat out Amber?

I'd say no. But I suspect the answer will be yes.

 

[FlossieH]

Beautiful from Isabeau. So expressive.

 

[4everchan]

I prefered Amber's athletic style to this old-fashioned balletic style of Isabeau.

 

[Jeanie19]

Isabeau. Unusual dress, but it goes with the program. Really good skate.

 

[RatedPG]

My favourite short program out of all the ladies!! Every detail really thought out. I think her skating skills are much better than Amber!! I hope she is close to Amber with a score over 70.

So, does this beat out Amber?

I'd say no. But I suspect the answer will be yes.

gosh... we are so in agreement today LOL

 

[YuBluByMe]

Levito’s program is a miss for me. I hated the choreography. She shouldn’t go above Glenn.

 

[momrk]

Lovely skate from Isabeau! (I am now limiting my comments to after so as not to jinx)

She looked incredibly slow. And at the spins were crawling.
