This wasn't her best skate, but this was a huge improvement over some of her previous free skates. She's finally starting to put the pieces together, her triple jumps are huge and she's a great performer. Once she gets more consistency and stamina, she can do great things.

This stream is working:

But, last time the streamer was pretty irritating. She spoke a lot and was a bit negative. It is better if you don't understand Mandarin. It's the only time I have ever wished my limited Mandarin was worse.

She isn't speaking right now.... thankfully....

hello everyone! do we have the german stream for the free?

 

[DemTuppesSeine]

I looooove Sofja she's really looking like a senior skater this season and I'm totally here for that. Excited for her first GP!

What a costume. GL Kimmy!

okay, can't say I love the dress. I get they're going for military, but the skirt and straps around the midriff are a bit distracting. The top is very nice, I guess? This is a great program for Kimmy, it really highlights her speed, performance, and elegance.

Yay Kimmy

 

[readernick]

Great. I've never been the biggest fan of Kimmy's skating or of this overused music. But, I think the combination work well. I don't mind the costume.

Hope you can find a stream. You really don´t want to miss Olivia and Tim with an E today, just saw a practice photo from their costumes and I smell costume award

A mixed bag for Olga, she started out strong but things devolved a bit as she went on. I'm not sure how the second music piece is really connected but she was having lots of fun performing it.

 

[YuBluByMe]

That music cut is dreadful.

I'm so glad to see Janna back to the form she was in two seasons ago. The jumps are looking quite strong (aside from the axel, but that's just the wonky technique). I would like to see more performance from her, but she's young and has lots of time, I'm sure her off-season work was more focused on the technical. Landing that 3S right after that nasty fall shows serious guts.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Mlle. Jyrkinen looks much stronger than last season, the program is a bit generic but nice
