Matias. Great shirt. Good program and skate.

Matias LINDFORS (FIN) finishing off the competition.

Having been a fan of his older sisters, I have a soft spot for Matias. So, I am happy with that skate.

Alina sitting with him.

He goes into 2nd position. Pushing his coach's husband out of the podium positions!

Awkward!

Matias 68.66 in second place behind Kyrylo. Seasons best!

Right, we now have a dinner break for 50 minutes. But, I won't be back in time for the start of the girls.

It would be great if the Time Schedule PDF's would work, because it would help me decide when the time comes whether to wind the stream back and play catch-up, or whether to start watching LIVE.

Right, I stayed for the first skater.

False start for Mohammed AAMARA (BEL). He went over to the panel, and then went back into his starting pose.

It was the correct music, but it started playing in the wrong position.

Yet another skater wearing all black.

He was good.

Ah, when he arrived at the seats, he sat down and put on a pair of glasses. He's brave, skating without wearing them! I wouldn't be that brave!

He goes into the lead. Obviously.

And that is me away for food now.

Jogaile. Nice outfit. Good program to I can't help falling in love. Good skate.

 

[Jeanie19]

Lueta. Pretty dress. Pretty program. A couple of mistakes but still a decent skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Arrived back just as the third skater was about to be introduced. So, I'm joining you LIVE.

Minja. Pretty black dress. Good program. Good skate.

 

[TT_Fin]

First time this season I see Virpi Horttana herself with her skater. I wonder if she has had healthy problems which has affected to skaters. This was different Minja than at JGP.

 

[TT_Fin]

Janna has worlds Tes. I forgot last season also counts.

 

[Jeanie19]

Janna. Beautiful red with black dress. Good program and a great skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Now that was an enjoyable programme to come back to!

Minja PELTONEN (FIN) was wearing a black dress, with a nice pattern on it.

The music was really haunting. Not in the Hallowe'en sort or way. It just touched you.

She goes into 2nd poisition.

Barbora. Beautiful blue dress. Good program. A couple 2 foot landings, but otherwise a good skate.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Sorry, the computer started misbehaving, and I couldn't get my comment about Minja posted. Thankfully the stream continued playing long enough for me to see Janna JYRKINEN (FIN)'s programme, but then I missed her getting her scores.

It's a real pity that the livescoring isn't working.

I saw the next skater, Barbora VRANKOVÁ (CZE), alright too. And Tomáš VERNER sitting with her.

To cut a long story short, I enjoyed both of them too.

Hopefully it will behave for the remaider of the night.

Roos. Pretty black dress. Nice program. Two falls, but she never gave up the performance.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I have been keeping an eye on Roos van der PAS (NED) and her sister Floor for a few years now.

I'm afraid that was not the best skate I've seen from Roos.

When it is done clean, this programme will be beautiful. But, unfortunately, there were far too many mistakes today.

No. She's crying!



She goes into 6th position.

Well, having seen most of the skaters that were on before her, I'm not really surprised that she's in last position.

But, I'm sure it'll go better next time.

Jade. Pretty brown dress. Pretty program and skate.
