Mone Chiba

I hope that there is no serious injury, and that she can be fully healed for Skate America.

Congratulations to Mone Chiba, for having managed, in spite of her pain, to be second at the Kinki regional championships, which allows her to participate at All-Japan National Championships.
But I'm worrying so much for her, as there's so little time before Skate America!
I hope so much that she's had a medical leave to skate, and is not injuring herself (or be injured under the orders of such a coach) further.

I wish Mone Chiba all the best for her Short Program!

She skated wonderfully! Don't be fooled by scores, she's very probably the best today:

I really hope that this is true; if it is, I'm sure that she will find how to overcome such situations:


(And I hope that it is all right to post things from AnythingGOEs here.)

Here's Mone Chiba's Free Skating at Skate America, with two falls alas, but it's a beautiful program:

I'm so, so sorry for her. Last year, apart from JSF dubious choice of assigning her to only one Junior Grand Prix spot in spite of her Silver at Junior Nationals, all had been so well. This year, she had a beautiful Short Program at Skate America, scandalously underscored (it was as good as Loena Hendricks', who really deserved her own score), then all went down. So we won't see her beautiful skating at Grand Prix Final. I hope that she can do well at All-Japan Nationals.

Congratulations to Mone Chiba for her Silver Medal at All-Japan National Championship!
I hope that she will be assigned to World Championships, or at the very least, at Four Continents (the dream would be both, but I know that the field is deep).

I know that she can't have high Grades of Execution on her triple jumps which, without being small as they have been in her initial Junior years, are not huge either, the Grades of Execution she's getting on her beautiful Double Axels, big, effortless, fluid, graceful and all, are really too low; and the Components! Hers are to dream of, how can it be that she's still scored around 7.50???

Congratulations to Mone Chiba for her second place at Inter-High-Schools, a national competition:

Her Components are starting to grow, but they are still too low, as are her Grades of Excecution, except for the initial Triple Flip:
