Ladies LP

[Medusa]

They really gave Leonova a big make-over before Senior Worlds. New hair, new make-up, new costumes...

 

[Norpido]

No, Poykio looks lovely in anything.

 

[*Sniper*]

Don't you all miss Yukari. Too bad she didn't qualify.

Indeed! Miss seeing her smile.
Japan has such a deep field that I think it's all the more amazing that Suguri is still competing at age 28.
That takes some heart and dedication.

Don't you all miss Yukari. Too bad she didn't qualify.

Was it not Yukari in the youtube clip with Fedor doing side by side 3 axels? Maybe she will change to Azerbijan too and they can skate pairs

 

[Alicja]

Yes, she is! I swear someone in her camp reads the figure skating forums. All the people who have been saying she needs to wear bolder colors.

That's not last season's SP dress, the red is different.

 

[TNT2012]

Is Fumie Suguri the oldest competitor in the free skate? Go Fumie!

 

[Hikaru]

I have no shame Norpido!!! (... errr no shame musically!) I like their songs, especially their ballads. At least they harmonize!

ITA with you, ahh the memories, they rocked for me... still do.

 

[museksk8r]

Just a note for Czisny fans - It was said that NBC has no plans of showing Alissa's LP.

 

[BBI*CEO]

Go Fumie!!

 

[BBI*CEO]

Fumie's year of birth is listed as 1980, and Joannie's is listed as 1986, so yes, I think she must be the eldest of all the ladies - inspiring to see her in such fine form!!

 

[screech]

Well, currently the worst she can be placed at is 11th. If only three of the next 10 skaters skate poorly, Alissa can certainly move up in placement. After all they were very close in points after SP.

And that's assuming Rachel makes the top 5.

And looks like Fumie still isn't working on that flutz...

I thought she looked so great during the SP! It's a more mature look, but still fresh, young, and fun. Hope she skates great tonight . . . I really like her!

 

[dgel]

you could see Fumie counting out loud in her spiral sequence - 1 hippopotamus, 2 hippopotamus, 3 hippopotamus, change....

 

[crazydreamer]

They haven't shown Alissa on the NBC broadcast have they? Or did I miss it?

I guess we're hoping for 5 (Rachael) and 8 (Alissa). That seems doable, although it's still going to take a lot of luck.

 

[Gymfan15]

Ugh, this music is driving me crazy. What other famous skater (US) has skated to this before? It's really familiar to me but I can't place it at all. Sasha? Or Johnny. Or neither. Help!

 

[Icechick86]

Anyone else in the US watching coverage on NBC? The commentators' words are not in sync with their mouths . . . weird!

I'm watching NBC's coverage now...the commentary drives me nuts. I love Scott Hamilton but come on...I can barely hear the music!

 

[Wrlmy]

Fumie Suguri

3z-2t

3f step out. Damn she didn't go for the 2t. Shite. This will count as a sequence.
2a-2a

 

[Hsuhs]

Will this be enought to beat Alissa's 3,5 triples program?

 

[turtle]

I'm watching on TV and I wish Japan had sent Yukari instead of Fumie. Fumie has no facial expression whatsoever. Yukari has a way better presentation on ice.

LOL!! I swear, that's what it's come down to these days with this judging system. How many hippopotamuses you hold the position for!
