Ladies - Long Program

[Violet Bliss]

Mao's 3A is so high!

 

[blue_idealist]

Mao was good!! I think the only mistake was a two foot

 

[Mrs. P]

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!! MAO, that rocked. 7 triples..and clean as a whistle...

 

[justaskatingfan]

very nice ending too

 

[Lilith11]

GORGEOUS skate from Mao, omg <3 THAT is the Mao we know and love at her best. And aw, look at that big smile on her face; go Mao! Expect her to go into first w/that skate. *crosses fingers*

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Yay Mao! A beautiful performance!

 

[kandidy]

Great ! Mao!

 

[breeze]

A great finale of the competition!

 

[Chemistry66]

Part of me subconsciously may have wanted Mao to bomb so Rachael could podium and Mirai get a silver, but the majority (and the whole conscious part) is glad to see Mao doing so much better!

 

[Mrs. P]

It's going to be close. She has to score a 138 to win...

 

[blue_idealist]

It looks like the podium I predicted early in the season for Worlds will be the podium here. I will be wrong about Worlds though as Mirai won't be there.

 

[gold12345]

This final group has been a real treat to watch!! Very high level of skating

 

[Spun Silver]

Oh, we counted out the Mighty Mao! OMG, she's back!!!

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Hmmm...this is going to be very interesting, to see how the judges score Mao's program.

 

[Morning Glory]

Yes, Mao!!!! She did all triples!! I'm really proud of you!!

 

[Chemistry66]

And for Mao, 132.89 for a total of 196.30! She gets the silver, Miki wins it, and Mirai gets Bronze with Rachael nipping at her heels with a 4th place finish!

It's an M-cubed podium.

 

[Mrs. P]

Oh sheesh she gets a 132..but still is only second. will definitely have to check out protocols...

 

[lavender]

I wanted Miki, Mirai, Mao or Alissa on the podium so I'm ecstatic.

 

[Nadine]

Ah, exquisite, exquisite, exquisite, it's when she skates like this I'm misty-eyed, almost broke down during the middle of the performance, then caught myself when she UR her 3S, but her everything else perfect!!!!!!

MAO, MAO, MAO, MAO, MAO, MAO, MAO!!!!!

 

[lilshorty]

I miss that Mao took some of the choreographical elements out of her program at the beginning like the spread eagles.
