2025 U S.Nationals Senior Women's Free Skate

[labgoat]

Jean-Luc was commenting about her step sequence which is done on curves - completely different from the familiar straightline sequence

Josephine. Pretty dress. Nice program and skate.

 

[moonvine]

I didn't even know you could do a combination that combines different directions! How cool.

People don't do it because it is crazy hard.

 

[auser]

Pretty spiral and choreo sq in an enjoyable skate from Josephine.

JOSEPHINE MY DAUGHTER <33

Ashley was just saying that Josephine recently recovered from a bout with pneumonia. She skated really well having just recovered from that!

 

[YuBluByMe]

Lee seems to always bring her A-game in the free skate, but then she doesn’t do well internationally. That was a good program for her; I think the music fits her.

 

[moonvine]

Ok. Got here just in time for the fabulous Sonja. How can Johnny and Tara not even MENTION that she jumps in 2 different directions. Seriously? Also no comment on the toe spin. Who is calling on the World feed? Should I switch to that?

Ben and Ashley and yes

 

[yelyoh]

Sorry she was sick. Not bad. Joey has a flair for the dramatic. Hope she gets the jumps consistent. Great she cleared 180!

 

[Jammers]

As usual Josephine has her one great skate of the season at Nationals.

Even making Top 10 will be a good result for Sonya, but I will remember this program, and I know there are many that I won't recall at all. Like everyone who has gone so far, for example.

So, good for her for entertaining me.

You've hit the nail on the head. She's memorable. And in a very good way!

 

[labgoat]

FYI - Jean-Luc commented on all the practices and had all sorts of cool things to say. Me and @moonvine will try to remember and share as many as we can

 

[sworddance21]

Ben and Ashley and yes

Done! Much better. Might rewind later and hear them call Sonja.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Go Thorngren! Rotate, girl, rotate!

I like the program, as well. However, again, having seen her live. I don't find her international results surprising. She doesn't yet have power in her skating. Give her a few years.

 

[labgoat]

Go Lindsay - breathe and enjoy your skating

She is like a young colt with those legs - you are right she will grown into them

 

[labgoat]

This is a very cool step sequence full of unusual and different accents

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Oh gosh, this was such a tough skate from Lindsay - every single one of her jumps save the last 2A were visibly under, and then she had an error on a normally-reliable spin. The judges didn't go with her at all on her step sequence or choreo sequence, which is really harsh, but she did seem visibly deflated (understandably so) after those opening mistakes.

her TES dropped 12 points
