Ladies Free Skate

[ks777]

I also missed Mao's LP, sucks but I got to watch Kimmie's..... feel really sorry for Kimmie. She is probably the sweetest person out there... maybe it's time for her to change her coach? wow 95.14 is really low.

wow! mao is fighter! amazing free skate! almost clean! two 3-3 combination, 3 AXEL!!! and 3-2-2... wow!

what was her 3-2-2? At the beggining of the season she was doing 2-2-2 (2axel-2loop-2loop)

Congra~~~ to Mao. She won this event! I'm so glad she finally came back.

She has not won the event yet. Yu-Na scored over SIX points higher then she would need to win the event at Cup of Russia.

95 for Kimmie's lp
154 for Kimmie overall Tear*

OMG, hope it's not serious.

Yukari is killing that ice!!!

 

[Sackie]

Looks like Kimmie got a bonus too! With 3 falls the PCS marks shouldn't be that high! Just goes to show that being a former world champ has it's advantages.

The 3 women to come now are battling for the bronze medal it looks like. The battle for gold between Mao and Yu Na will be decided by the last skater.

She has not won the event yet. Yu-Na scored over SIX points higher then she would need to win the event at Cup of Russia.

Why is everybody saying that Mao has already won when Yu-Na Kim has yet to skate.

I like Nakano. She is a Lady among teenagers. And really seems to enjoy skating today.

 

[ks777]

Nakano fell on her triple toe.... but other than that she is clean so far.

 

[sindarin]

what was her 3-2-2? At the beggining of the season she was doing 2-2-2 (2axel-2loop-2loop)

And I heard that (2axel-2loop-2loop) is what she did today.

 

[slutskayafan21]

Why is everybody saying that Mao has already won when Yu-Na Kim has yet to skate.

I have no idea. It is ridiculous anyone who would assume Mao has automaticaly won when Yu-NA's recently set PB is over 6 points higher then what she would need to win.

 

[netnuts]

Nakano's every triple looks underrotated to me. BTW, she nailed a 3A, fell unexpectedly from nowhere, clean jumps.

 

[mizu_iro]

Oh gosh, Kimmi's score is 95.14. Absolutely terrible. She seems disappointed, as she should be...poor girl.

Now that my Daum connection is stable...PBP time!

Yukari Nakano
Capriccio Espagnol
Really, really bright salmon-colored dress

GOOOO YUKARI!!
3A, perfect! Best one this season!
3F-2T, wrapped but doesn't seem underrotated
Combo spin, maybe a bit slower than usual but still excellent
3Z, clean again
3S, she actually has very nice landings
Flying sit spin, again maybe a bit slow by her standards
Sit into catchfoot into scratch
Spiral sequence, steady
3F, nice and clean
3T, fall
Circular steps, they seem smoother than before
3S-2T-2T, good girl!
Flying camel into donut

Aside from the fall on the 3T, this was terrific. Very well performed. She's smiling at the end.

 

[kandidy]

Wow, two perfect triple axel in one competition! Very excited !

I have no idea. It is ridiculous anyone who would assume Mao has automaticaly won when Yu-NA's recently set PB is over 6 points higher then what she would need to win.

It's going to be another scandal if Yu Na wins. She does NOT have 3A
