[demarinis5]

GO Viktoria and Ashley!!!

 

[Oreo]

If Ashley doesn't pull this out then the USFA seriously needs to go to Michelle and Sasha's agents and talk to them.

Poor skate from Elene

 

[Violet Bliss]

Ok, she bombed. But, her speed today was AMAZING! She was SO FAST!

But she was rushing, speed without control, kind of like earlier Kostner and Hanyu. She has the power so she just needs to manage it.

 

[Serious Business]

Elene got the highest PCS so far!

 

[Mrs. P]

To be fair, Elene has had 6 years to 'build' after a fantastic Olympic debut. She and Kiira Korpi promised so much, but nothing has materialised.

True. But I really feel she has made some key progress this year, that's what I"m referring to.

 

[whuzzup22]

It looks like China will have 2 spots for next year! Who would likely join Kexin at the 2013 Worlds?

 

[katymay]

"bombshell" I hope is not a pun?


Alissa being interviewed by US right now... said she couldn't find her feet this week... I hate when I can't find bodyparts when I know I packed them.

Um...she also couldn't find her rotation......

 

[mateusp1]

Elene first on PC's.

 

[Enidan]

GO Wagner, it's your TIME to SHINE

 

[museksk8r]

Will somebody tell the fool on Universal Sports who doesn't know a rat's a$$ about skating that not every skater out there is an ice dancer. He keeps saying they've just completed their short dance or their free dance.

Please let it be Bingwa Geng, that girl is adorable!

i guess she couldn't find them a few weeks ago either

 

[Nadine]

I actually think Ashley will do quite well, definitely Top 10!

 

[sidneyke]

I think it's one of those things where "you don't know what you had until it's gone" types of things... folks didn't think it could "get any worse" than Sasha... they got what they asked for by tempting the skategods that way.

Even more, what does that say about how great Michelle Kwan was!!! Nine straight years on the podium! 5 World titles! U.S. figure skating is in the throws of death – to say the least. Kwan, Cohen and possibly Sarah Hughes, would have wiped the floor with this current crop of ladies. And I love Mirai, Caroline and Alissa. They show flashes of brilliance, but it's true.

 

[whuzzup22]

How did Bingwa do this season?

Please let it be Bingwa Geng, that girl is adorable!

I hope so too! Bingwa has some of the best spin positions...her style is so delicate and exquisite :yes:

What about Zijun Li? Isn't she old enough?

 

[sky_fly20]

It should be Zijun Li
