Edit: Hey @moonvine just saw on Twitter that Jackie is going to have Gracie as a guest during the broadcast of men's practice today.
For others who might be interested, he's got Jason Brown lined up as a guest, too.

So this will also be on youtube? Ready for me to see on Sunday

Yep, Men's practice will end up on Youtube for a bit, too. I haven't really looked to see how long they've left up the practice vids. I've watched the parts I've wanted to watch, and then not given it another glance.

Awwww. He's actually doing POTO as his long. I just don't know what is going on.

Maybe he's thinking the podium here is out of reach, and they're unlikely to get to him at 4CC as third alternate... and this might be the season for him... and he'll just completely ham it up.

I sure hope not. He’s said he’s in it til the Olympics.

Jackie says Jimmy looks the best he has all year. I tweeted him to not jinx him. He praised Sam Mindra. Sam is slightly injured and considered withdrawing. Unfortunately he’s been working on the 3A for several years which isn’t a great sign.

Sorry to hear than Sam Mindra is dealing with an injury (however slight). Wishing him all the best in the final. May ALL the men skate great today!

They had the music issue before I went to bed last night, but they've fixed it now. I'm currently watching it.

Well that was quick, it worked when I posted it. Sorry folks- I tried.

Not your fault of course

Not fine for me. Probably someone in Sweden protests against some music being played(Iwonder which music?). I watched women's practice with Jackie and Polina. It was great listening to them, getting insights from a US figure skating fan and a former skater. As men is my favorite discipline I was really looking forward to Jackie and Gracie.

If you use a VPN to watch other skating, you could try that.

for the tip, it works now. Didn't expect it. But VPN after setting on Netherlands for a while switched to US.

I'm happy that worked. I honestly suggested that because that's the general cure all for such things around here.

Hard to tell from practice what’s happening in the real competition. Jason a bit insecure on jumps, but he’ll do fine in competition I’m sure. Ilia didn’t jump, focused on steps… Andrew did his most difficult jumps I think and a lot more, wow he’s my favorite after Ilia… Tomoki messy quad then not showing much… Jimmy looking better than ever!… Camden marking jumps..

…and the real competition starts now.

Gracie about what her coach Frank said to her before a skate… we were’nt big talkers. She talked about her book though, coming feb 6. And that she was at a library answering questions about it
