2025 NHK Trophy Women's Free Skate

[Dr. Jenn]

Wow - Great skate by Loena! It's so nice to have her back in the field. That said, I cannot stand this cacophonous music, and the colour of her costume is unfortunate - far too close to the colour of her skin and tights (although the design of the costume is nice). I just wish that she didn't jump with her arms over her head so much. She also didn't perform to her usual standard, until the very end of the program.

With final being awarded that Euros medal, Loena should get backpaid prize money which would be a good and deserved shot in the finances

Good for Loena! This isn't my favorite program and I think she has some weird choreo choices, but great show from her!

 

[Vemvane]

All greens for Loena! She was very focused all the way through, really determined to get all those jumps done. Fantastic flexibility and speed in her I-spin as always. I enjoyed the fan kick-2A-twizzles, and that knee slide entrance into her layback is fantastic. The programme feels unusually subdued for Loena, only really picking up energy in the choreo sequence, but it's nice to see her skate something different.

Omigosh, what a lovely cat in K&C!

 

[bartlebooth]

Glad that Loena put Rinky on a leash.

 

[lariko]

Go Young You! Have a comeback of your own!

I nearly fell asleep. Loena woke me up!

Titanic? Really? It's a good thing I am fond of you, Young.

 

[lariko]

Yeah, Samodelkina is going to lose the podium, but it was too much to hope for anyway.

 

[Lunalovesskating]

Ohhhh Young You is on fire.

 

[lariko]

Welcome back, Young You. It's been some time.

 

[readernick]

I'm glad that Young did better at this competition. Kind of a boring program but definitely a better performer than her compatriot. There were some UR in there if the panel wants to call them. The dress is pretty.

 

[LazyFuzai]

Great skate.Program could be even more emotional,but it was really amazing overall.She is here for Olympic spot for sure.

 

[TT_Fin]

[Dawn825]

[Ares]
