2025 JGP Ankara Women's Free Skate

Great skate, amazing dress and I love the music choice. LotR has such a great soundtrack, I'm suprised it's not used more often. Her jumps are a bit tiny and squeezed but she makes them happen.

OK, Yujae Kim delivered today.

The diadem I was talking about, it truly was a Galadriel diadem:

 

[bartlebooth]

A zombie-like cover of Zombie

 

[flanker]

I like Cranberries but precisely Zombie was not among my favorite songs. And cover does not make things better. Nevertheless Leandra does well so far.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Dolores O'Riordan is rolling in her grave

 

[YuBluByMe]

Powerful jumps and she did well to not give up on that spin.

Leandra. Elegant dress. Good program and she's a powerful skater.

 

[cocteautwin]

Leandra somehow managed to get from the worst music choice to the best music choice and all this happened with just one song. I wish she ditches the first part and sticks with original Zombie. Also, she did what ice dancers dare not to. I like that little chore before the last spin.

Let's Go, Haruna!
GANBA!!!


Oh dang...someone in Team Japan is sick

 

[Vemvane]

Leandra had to work for that skate, but she is fast, powerful, and aware of the music ‑ the way she repeatedly brings her hands to her temples to the "in your head" lyrics being the most obvious example. She has a big airy 2A, and good jumps. She saves the ch combo spin near the end somehow, that takes a strong core and good balance.

Murakami…just break 100 please.

Haruna : hard to be competitive with repeating sal and toe at this level... even if she does well with this layout

 

[4everchan]

Murakami…just break 100 please.

she will ... easily

I am a bit confused of Haruna Murakami's FS music choice theme...
Beautiful dress and skating! I love the hairdo here too. And all those green boxes on the top left!!!!!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Just one pop, otherwise great skate, the cuts are kinda disjointed but she sells each bit

 

[flanker]

Good skate but I would object the choreo, esp. the Irish folk music part could have certainly been incorporated much better into the program.

 

[EdgeCall]

Marvelous performance, even if some elements did not work as planned. And the dress is just lovely.

 

[Jeanie19]

Haruna. Beautiful dress. I love this program, having 3 musical parts was nice. Really good skate.

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Atta girl, Haruna!
A slight miss on the 3 jump combo but otherwise very nice skate!

Also, great job messing up a bunch of people's predictions!
