2023 World Figure Skating Championships Women's Short Program

[Lamente Ariane]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Isabeau seems like a sweet kid and her performance quality is lovely, but if everyone else's rotations are being scrutinzed hers should be too

When all is green

"unusual technique" - Belinda sounds like Ted?

I didn't know Elvis was a toddlers' favourite.

It's not the music itself, it is her collars, the colours, the way she interpretes it...

I can watch Isabeau skating all day. She is amazing, graceful, beautiful spins, good interpretation.

Isabeau. Beautiful dress and a lovely program. Great skate all greens.

 

[yelyoh]

Isabeau delivered the package. Second half of combo was a little wonky.

 

[Dr. Jenn]

Well done, Isabeau! That was a very solid skate. She has so many lovely qualities, but I just cannot deal with her horrible jump technique. Her stomach is nearly on her thighs before she launches into the air. I also do not like this program for her - There's something very juvenile/'little girl playing dress-up' about it. She is not mature enough for the music.

This is the first time I enjoyed Levito. Skating after Kurakova helps, I think. That was patient skating with a great step sequence. I like the twizzle that was right on the music. Her jumps still look as if they were beat with an ugly stick and the judges are tripping with the GOE on the lutz combo, but that was still a very good skate. Well done.

Well, the story behind the music is indeed dark!

But that was awesome! Great to see Isabeau looking like herself again!

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Lol, Belinda being unintentionally (?) shady "Not fast, not high"... "Unusual technique (long pause) but it works"

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Nina please keep it together

 

[Lamente Ariane]

...nope, don't agree with that score

 

[elektra blue]

mama's love, deliver something you can be proud of

 

[yesterday]

okay

 

[Anni234]

Nina I got so excited I forgot she's skating last this group haha

 

[Jammers]

Isabeau is unflappable as a competitor.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Wow does Nina look fast and powerful skating after Isabeau

 

[icewhite]

Levito is so overscored, but that was to be expected, of course.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Go Niina!

Although Eva Lotta still remains my fave! I hope she'll be around next season.

This is a fun costume though, like a disco ball!
