Ladies Short Program

[Mrs. P]

Yay Kanako! 3F-3T, 3L, 2A. Good job! She looks exhausted? Why is she so upset?

 

[Nadine]

Murakami had a solid effort, other than the slight bobble on the fw everything pretty good, though aesthetically I don't like the bulky line of her legs on *anyone*!

Still, the 3F/3T was good, the 3R maybe a tad UR?, and the 2A solid.

 

[Mirunna]

the 3L was not good. It may be <<(on replay)

I think she knows she UR'd....

 

[Mrs. P]

Ahh, that 3L wasn't perfect. She's second under Adelina. She seems disappointed.

The door is open for Mirai. I hope she goes through it.

 

[Mirunna]

Most likely the jumps were 3F-3T<, 3L<< and 2A. The score is low.

 

[Mirunna]

Yey Mirai! Good Girl! Landed everything. Now please, don't win the SP

 

[Buttercup]

Much better effort this time from Mirai, though I still feel she's not into her program at all.

 

[Nadine]

Now this is what a World Champion should look like ~ should easily go into 1st!!!!

Other than the nervous bobble at the beginning (reminiscent of Adelina's when she stepped out onto the ice) everything else perfect!

3 turns into 3R (now this is how it should be done Ksenia), and then the 3F/2T, nice solid 2A, excellent spins, et al.

Still, don't like the music, costume, et al. Mirai should be skating Rachael's FIREBIRD!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mrs. P]

Much better effort this time from Mirai, though I still feel she's not into her program at all.

Yeah, I agree with you. But yes, at least it was clean.

60.96. Good score and into first...

 

[Nadine]

YES, YES, YES (doing the happy dance)!!!!!

 

[alexeifan]

Much better for mirai but it did seem slow. I hope she wins the lp.

 

[Mrs. P]

Too bad about the hand down on the 3L, but I really love Carolina's SP this year. She was also way faster than Mirai and had better transitions, so we'll see how that scores.

 

[Nadine]

Carolina gave is away with the fall on the 3-turns-into 3R jump.

Still, should be close.

ps: I don't like her pretty pretty music this year either, bleh.

 

[Mirunna]

Caro: 3T-3T, 3L(2 hands down), 2A. Surprised to see british guys wondering if she can go intro second place. Come on!! Mirai will lead, but I don't see Caro lower than second
Her music pretty? Wow. I found it to be sharp and interesting

 

[Buttercup]

Carolina has the best ladies' SP this season; too bad about the mistake. No, Eurosport, I'm not scratching my head about her PCS!

Nadine, Carolina's Shostakovitch trio is your idea of pretty pretty music? :scratch: It's fabulous and certainly not standard tinkly music like many ladies use.

 

[Mirunna]

First place!! Good for her. And for Mirai actually

 

[Nadine]

Was close, and Carolina wins the SP by a smidgen. Still, don't like her programs this year, nor her safe skating.

Ladies is a zzzzz sport. Mens dominates, as it should.

 

[evangeline]

Her music pretty? Wow. I found it to be sharp and interesting

Definitely. Shostakovich is NOT easy to skate to, nor is it pretty music.

 

[gold12345]

Mirai is better off in 2nd, but does she deserve to be there? Not really. Kostner's SP is quite nice, but come on.
