Ladies' Short Program

[Spun Silver]

Alena didn't skate well in any sense today. Too bad.

 

[Violet Bliss]

Did Morozov or Mishin choreograph for Leonova? With in place vamping and the pre SS pause at end of rink.

 

[Mrs. P]

52 something for Mirai. I could have been a lot worse. Funny, even with a fall and no combo she's only about two points off of a clean Ashley and Rachael...she's still in medal contention and (what's better) she won't be in first heading into the LP. She skates better when she's not...

Alena is making me want to throw my computer screen against the wall...vomit. Her program was terrible. All of the posing and hip rolling...WTFWT?

Well that seems to be the Morozov trademark these days...

Gosh, I hate, hate, hate Morozov's choreography! Both Alena's and Amodio's programs are horribly tacky with ugly costumes to go with them.

Leonova

49.75 (6th for now)

i think mirai's spins saved her score. without the fall and add a combo her score would have been close to Liza.

Agreed, alena's program is cheesy. thank goodness my feed is so choppy that i only got to saw two poses: her first stance and her ending position.

also, did anybody else think that liza's 3T was underrotated? it looked half a turn cheated

go akiko!!!!

I think she singled her axel...

 

[Violet Bliss]

Just take it, Akiko! It's all yours now.

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Go Akiko!

 

[icellist]

my feed completely died

 

[kwanatic]

A couple of jump issues for Akiko...

I don't know how high that will hold her up.

Either way, Liza's going into the FS with a nice lead...

 

[Spun Silver]

Wow, no combo jump for Akiko (and her Yu Na spin is fugly).

Queen Tut is the only one who really brought it today. Schedule the coronation!

 

[Violet Bliss]

Another Evil Twins Convention.

 

[emma]

lot's of errors today; too bad. I love Akiko...hope the LPs are cleaner!

Alena has the highest pc scores so far??? 25.89? You've GOT to be kidding me.

No, Mirai does.

[Spun Silver]

Alena has the 2nd-highest PCS scores? You've gotta be kidding me.

At least give Akiko that!
