I'm not sure, but think the lady you thought was Eteri is actually Zhasmin's Mum / choreographer, Valensiya Shlaga.

3T3T...Riria is definitely not in top form
Also, she's extremely nervous...her legs were shaky during her opening pose (maybe bc she knows she's not completely healthy)

I hope Riria is not injured.

Wow they found that q on the toe loop for Inga, then PCS only slightly ahead of someone who had a disaster skate. I see 3 or 4 landings in free skates similar to Inga's toe loop and there's no q and solid GOE. Unbelievable.

Disclaimer: That is if I have identified the right lady as being Valensiya.

(The other lady with Zhasmin looked far too young to be the mother of a 15 year old!)

Definitely not a good year for Mie Hamada skaters, only Mao is doing great

 

[TallyT]

I think she looked a little relieved by the score.

Such a pretty smile she has...

Bad cover? I can vaguely hear a voice which sounds like the original.... ahh. No it doesn't.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Like... can't we have actual Coolio and not some remix or epic version or whatever? The sound quality is bad but that doesn't mean I can't differentiate?

Bad cover? I can vaguely hear a voice which sounds like the original.... ahh. No it doesn't.

very bad cover bruh

 

[Skating91]

a bit harsh on Inga there.

They always are. We know why as well

 

[Jeanie19]

Darja. Nice outfit and skate.

 

[RafaelAstro]

Wonder what is happening with japanese skaters this year, last two seasons they looked very confident and strong and this year they are doing to many silly mistakes, to much pressure on them?

Bad cover? I can vaguely hear a voice which sounds like the original.... ahh. No it doesn't.

Such a bad cover...

small fed skater?

That was definitely not Stevie Wonder's voice.

Stevie Wonder - "Pastime Paradise"

Well, you did say "the original"

very bad cover bruh

The sound is so bad (like the water tank I mentioned they are skating in is underwater) that I wasn't absolutely sure it wasn't my ears... kiddie, skate to Amish Paradise instead and at least we will get a laugh...

time to put my sweet potatoes in the oven

oooh. a 3T+3T from Riria. I wonder why she opted for that instead of her 3Lz+3T which is quite stable, edge issue aside.

Can't be certain since no reason given for her withdrawals from summer competitions but I'm guessing she's either coming back from injury (since BOI) or adjusting to growing a bit taller
