[Sabsi]

Go Ruiyang! I love that jumpsuit

Hi Saulis

Who is that ? Saulius without U ?

 

[Ares]

Nooo ... the score is much lower for Meda than I was hoping for. Still she couldn't really skate it better so she cannot have regrets at least.

 

[LadyB]

Meda looks beautiful

OMG, you're looking at Saulius again

 

[skatedreamer]

Love that dress color

Safonova? Yes indeed! I'm a sucker for that shade of red.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Wait why isn't Eteri with Adeliya?
And how come no 3A??

Probably a smart move not to cause distraction.

 

[LadyB]

Who is that ? Saulius without U ?

Distant cousin of Tim with an E.

 

[Jammers]

I don't know if it's the comparison to Petrosian who skated just before her, but she seemed s.l.o.w
How did she even got 3-3 from that speed?

Well lets be honest Russian or not Petrosian belongs in the final group of Ladies these other girls are not in her class.

 

[FunsizedFlier]

Absolutely love Ruiyang's jumpsuit

 

[TT_Fin]

Madonna obviously is a Figure skating fan so her music should be ok to use. Or is the record company with which the contracts are difficult to make?

 

[4everchan]

Distant cousin of Tim with an E.

And of Madison without a H

 

[ruffledgrouse]

I like this program! Is Ruiyang an up and coming skater? I'd like to keep an eye on her

 

[Rikku]

Safonova? Yes indeed! I'm a sucker for that shade of red.

Meda. But as far as red goes for me, Safonova's was a nice shade too

 

[elektra blue]

good job at the olys!

 

[EdgeCall]

Clean run, great skate!

The dress is indeed special.

 

[Sabsi]

Nice job! She was so into that step sequence… great expression, too

 

[moonvine]

That was lovely.

 

[Ruthypegs]

just tuned in to cheer on Kristen

Well done, Ruiyang! My favourite performance so far. I love how she uses her entire body in the choreo, especially in the step sequence.
