2025 Four Continents Women's Short Program

[Arigato]

Is it really necessary to be so catty?

The American women are closely matched. Bradie highest PCS and lowest TES. Likely because she's just fast and she does perform even though the choreo is wanting. Alysa in the middle. Great program. And, Sarah with the highest TES but lowest PCS. Sarah's combo should probably also have been called so I actually think her score should be a few points lower. But, they are close. Let's see what happens in the free skate.

I just watched and am curious about why Bradie's step sequence was only a Level 2. Can she raise that with the current choreo? I like this program very much.

I do not care for Mr Howarth's opinions and I am the epitome of bias here, but watching live I was wondering about her flip. Maybe the TP should've reviewed my love Chaeyeon's jumps more, sure, but I doubt that they would've found any of her jumps not fully rotated

MFarone and I argue about this. I maintain in this world of technology, AI, slow mo, different camera angles, blue tooth G sensors, etc there has to be a way to tell when a blade hits the ice, if that is so darned important.

Clean jumps aside, Mone does a far better job connecting with the music and audience than C. Kim, who never changes her blank expression during the entirety of her program. For this alone I’d have their scores much closer.

This is actually a previous year's short for Sofia, they brought it back as the one she was doing wasn't working well for her.

Her Jump For My Love short program from a couple of years ago was one of my favorites.

All the individual videos still seem to be up. I wonder if the background music in the arena got flagged by something.

I loved that one also!
