[Jeanie19]

he wasn't my son... officially... he had been officially adopted by @SnowWhite i was just his taking care of him every other weekend

but you know, there is a reason i don't mention Jo much...

if you want to talk about heartbreaking moments in figure skating, that's mine.... how injuries killed the new patrick chan.... Jo had everything needed to be the next Canadian star.... except healthy knees

I miss Jo.

why is Rinka doing this music? she's been so much more interesting than tango before

Yo soy Maria
No triple Axels
Why do I try them
I'll never land them

 

[mermaidfestavol3]

Well, the 2A+1Eu+3S seems to stay reliable at least. I feel like the music is a good fit for her as well, hope she can stabilize the jumps by Skate America...

Oh, a real nightmare skate - I know she wants the 3 3A achievement but I wish she would prioritize skating clean.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Mademoiselle Maria Watanabe please let's forget the 3A for now and focus on landing a clean 3-3

How did that old song go? You can get it if you really want, but you must try?

 

[YuBluByMe]

Watanabe’s 3A is not consistent so I don’t know why she’s going for two. I knew she was going to REP. That was a mess. I hope she gets it together by the GP series.

 

[elektra blue]

i was wondering were Maria was this season. here she is, she forgot some of Rinka jumps in Buenos Aires though

It is interesting she went for 3F+2T in the short when 3Lo+3T seemed to be the combo of choice last season...hope everything is ok

 

[FlossieH]

I think Rinka needs to take that triple axel out for a bit to get the other aspects of the programme - including the performance - really secure. Then she can try it again after.

 

[DemTuppesSeine]

It feels like she wants too much too fast.

 

[mermaidfestavol3]

Slow motion is not kind to the ending 3Lo

I secretly hope that we have to listen to as much music misfits this year so that we can all be rewarded with great music choice at the Olympics next season Karma

 

[Lamente Ariane]

It doesn't seem worth it to me to pay for the stream since there's one group left and tomorrow I almost definitely won't be able to watch, so I'm watching the short programs I can find on YouTube and relying on everyone's reports Go final group, everyone skate well!

So if I ever go to Maple land I'll buy you a Margarita (or a drink of your choice) and we can cry over our beloved skaters that broke us, you can cry about Joseph Phan and I'll cry about my darling squirtle

Spicy last group.

Margaritas are so evil... delicious and mischievous. I didn't know it was your drink of choice when broken by skating... I have tried a few... like negronis (which i love but not when watching skating... just doesn't work) and ended up going for old-fashioneds when skating life is unbearable.

 

[4everchan]

Spicy last group.

more dune ? really? please, no.

 

[FlossieH]

Rinka is less than a mark above Kristen Spours in the free skate standings. She should be miles ahead of her. I haven't watched Kristen yet, but I guess she must have done okay.
