Ladies FS

Found a different computer just in time for ash, right? OMG the first time watching US Nats live!
 
Painful to watch, feel so sorry for Morgan after she had a terrific tango in the SP! :)

I think she only landed one clean triple (3T at end), but she has absolutely BREATHTAKING Ina Bauers & Spread Eagles to match Rachael Flatt's (could be twins when it comes to these moves).

Better luck next time, Morgan, this is just a learning experience. :love:

I also liked her spread eagles. And I was happy she landed her last jump. Good note to end on.

I also noticed the costume - I think it was just the side cutout view from the back.
 
I like Yasmin and the fact that she pays attention to the details of the music at 14. I hope she continues to improve.

I remember watching her as an intermediate at junior nationals in December 2007 (man how do I remember that, I was only 12 myself haha) Anyhow, she was 11 then and had the musicality already.
 
Ashley Wagner - 7th after SP

3flip/2toe (beautiful flow-out, nicely timed with beats of music)
2axel/3toe (two-foot on the toe)
3lutz (beautiful)
very Michelle-esque layback (with free leg down)
beautiful spiral sequence (great extension)
flying sit spin (interesting arm position - one arm raised above head at a slight angle)
3loop/2toe/2toe (nice Ashley!)
3sal (wow)
3loop (from 3-turns - nice)
1flip (aww)
spirited footwork (but I can't help but imagine Sasha's genius footwork...)
final combination spin (good positions, beautiful Bielmann at the end)

Nicely done!

SP: 52.72
FS: 110.73
Total: 165.36 - Currently 1st

HUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge smile on her face and the "Yes! Yes!" with the fist pump. Brava, Ashley!
 
Ashley showing her usual flair and fight in the LP. She singled her 2nd 3flip and it appeared she two-footed 2 of her triples.
 
Yeah Ashley!!!!! One mistake; great skate overall. This skater has such talent - my goodness. Loved her program. Love her dress. Loved her energy.

ETA: i was quoting Scott on the one mistake thing, assuming he was referring to the popped jump (as in one glaring mistake).
 
GREAT COMEBACK BY ASHLEY!!!! WHAT A FIGHTER!!!! *where's Christina Aguilera's song about this* ;)

Only opened up on one triple jump, but landed at least 6 (the running 3-turns into 3R was FAB!)! :thumbsup: Couple of cheats looked like to me, but Scott only called 1?

But what a comeback, fighter, et al, if she keeps hanging in there I think she'll have a moment(s) like Alissa Czisny, whom has stuck with it throughout the years! :thumbsup:
