2025 JGP Abu Dhabi Women's Short Program

[Karoltyna]

I ditched Chopin for this vocal... (ok, I ditched him for skating, but ya know...)

 

[elektra blue]

I heard a version at a funeral a while back, nearly burst out laughing in the middle of the church....

This girl is lovely.

it's zombie month...it's fitting kudos to them

Seojin. Gorgeous dress. Really good program. Lovely skate.

It could be worse (and much as I like the juniors, I am loweringly certain it will be, musically speaking)

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Seojin is a beautiful skater, genuinely. Today, though, the combo was under, for sure, and she ended up being a little behind the music, but the rest was stunning.

You raise me up is exactly what i wanted to listen to this morning...

Don't you mean "You wake me up too early in the morning"...?

No harm to Celtic Woman, but it's not a great cover.

It's hard to beat Brian Kennedy singing it.

This program is so fun and I actually love that she kept it for a second season. Her SP has been much more stable domestically than what she was able to show here - I can only hope that this means she'll do a great FS (which has not been the case domestically so far).

Reese. Pretty dress. Good program. Shame about the falls, but she never gave up the performance.

Funny you should say that...

Brian Kennedy - "You Raise Me Up"

From the funeral of the legend that was George Best.

I think of this moment every time I hear the song. (Was it really 20 years ago?! )

Lovely sparkly dress, very appealing skater, pity about the mistakes.

Same here yikes
Trying to watch two skating competition, Chopin competition and shorttrack. Another challenging week.

I ditched Chopin, some contestants make it very hard for me to do anything else than listening (not you, Gabriele Strata)

 

[Jumping_Bean]

One of the best (Jr Women's) Short Programs of the season so far, in my opinion, particularly the Step Sequence. To be fair, I have yet to not like a Cirque du Soleil program

 

[Karoltyna]

All greens

That was much much better than the version at my funeral (errr... that didn't come out right, especially given my recent post in the Shibsibs thread) which was very very bad.

 

[Jeanie19]

Venla. Pretty dress. Great program, all greens, fantastic spins and cartwheel.

Some of skater makes it difficult to listen their music so I think I may watch some programs muted with Chopin instead.

 

[TallyT]

The costumes so far have been a real cut above, that one was gorgeous!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

All greens

To match her dress.

That was lovely from Venla SINISALO (FIN)

Ted and Mark - when it comes to cartwheels, you cant beat my kid Zhasmin, who is coming up in Group 4. Doing a cartwheel during her bows is quickly becoming her signature move.

Venla goes into 2nd position.

Love this program for Venla, such a nice choreography
