[essiejane]

so, maybe silly questions, but who sat with Alissa in the KnC? What was Frank's reaction to Mirai's skate? Was Oppergard with Caroline?

I second all of those questions!!

mirai:
On the skating magazine it says "full package" but i think it should say "potential to be a complete package"

i think she's already the full package. She has it all. She just need to hit it at more competitions that's all. It'd be nice if she had a 3-3 but her jumps are high and good.

Well, tonight she looked like she's ready. Her confidence was stupendous.

She always looks ready after she does a great SP. But i'm hoping this is the year she takes control.

I think Allissa was with Yuka Sato's husband. Jason Dungjien. They co-coach Allissa. Frank was thrilled with Mirai's score.

thanks, layfan!

ETA ok, third warm up group is on the ice!! I - sadly - have to eat dinner. Will, be back fast!

 

[Layfan]

Now really curious to see Rachael's new SP!!

Is she going have a 3-3? I kinda think she needs one to overtake Mirai and Alissa - in the SP anyway. And maybe Agnes. Geez, Agnes was really good.

Big Big Thanks to those of you who have visual access to the competition and are sharing with the rest of us! In addition to the big names yet to skate (Wagner, Flatt), I'm also interested in seeing how Lam and Bulanhagui do. Bulanhagui seems to have fallen off peoples' radar, but I think she placed as high as 8th a couple of years ago, no?

Introduction of each individual skater, little tidbits again, lol.

Kristene Musademba volunteers for the Red Cross, yeah! :thumbsup:

 

[krenseby]

Geez, Agnes was really good.

I think the competition at Worlds would benefit by having her there.

IceNetwork said the Mixed Zone coverage is free to non-subscribers, I thought. So it must just be my college internet that hates me and won't load the video player.

 

[Spun Silver]

Go, Kristine! Is this her first competition since being injured?

 

[Tinymavy15]

Did Rachael get a new SP? news to me. what's the music. I am very surprised as i thought she would change her FP by now.

 

[R.D.]

I feel like putting most of the contenders in the early groups sorta took the suspense out of the event. Oh well...only Wagner and Flatt left and they're among the last ones.

 

[Nadine]

OMGosh, I just realized I don't know ANYBODY in this group, completely new, never heard of any of them, will be interesting.

 

[Spun Silver]

Is Morgan Bell wearing one of Sasha's costumes?

She's now skating to East of Eden, I believe. Caused a bit of a fuss since it's one of Kwan's well-loved pieces.

 

[R.D.]

I wouldn't crown Agnes just yet. Let's see how she does in the Free. She has had strong shorts before, only to crumble in the free. Shades of Cohen, at least for the moment. But of course, this is her first year so I don't expect that much.

 

[Spun Silver]

Nadine, watch Vanessa Lam - did fab on junior circuit this year, or was it last? A very beautiful skater already.
