I'm back. Far too awake! I need some really boring music choices to send me to sleep like I should be...

Don’t worry, from what I saw in practices there should be at least one program in the next group to make your eyelids droop…

Bradie is a stunning rhapsody in green! I hope everyone skates wonderfully but I'm excited to see her--and Wakaba--back on the GP.

WAKABA!!!!! I'm just so glad to have her back after she took a few seasons off dealing with injury and burnout. I love this program for her - she does such a good job with this intense music and bringing the drama. She was a little jump-focused during the first half, but she brought it during that step sequence! The speed and attack throughout was just remarkable, and I love the choreo. On a selfish note, I love this costume for a Dune program. It's very elegant while working with the music.

Great skate from Higuchi. Is she going to go into first and stay there for the whole event?
