Practice Cam Chat

Donovan rocks!!

 

[moonvine]

Donovan!!!! And loud cheers and clapping.

Am anxiously waiting for reports on my darling Junhwan, thank you in advance

He looked great, but they are all looking great.

 

[moonvine]

Wonder if the men will give us a good free or a good short, since we can never have both.

 

[moonvine]

The next group is up.

 

[moonvine]

Here is Liam, whom I love, but not sure he is quite ready for this. Ditto Dinh Tran. May they both pleasantly surprise me.

 

[moonvine]

Here's Ilia, scattered screams. I see 3 people in the audience sharing a blanket, good idea, it's freezing in there.

Dinh looks calm.

 

[moonvine]

Dinh looks calm.

Yes he does. he must be all like "I'm going to pleasantly surprise that crazy woman watching me on the practice cam."

 

[cheerknithanson]

Watched the practice stream (While eating Sonic). I think Ilia's FP music is growing on me. Still prefer the music from last year's FP though.

 

[moonvine]

Ahhhh I want to sleep Dinh must have a cheering section. That's good, all skaters should have one. That was a fast spin, I think he's loaded for bear.

Glad I caught the practice stream just as Kao was doing his runthrough! I love seeing the Japanese guys, they're all looking good so far (though Koshiro seems a little reserved). Surprised to see no runthrough jumps from Ilia. Then again, almost everyone seems to be focusing on components except Dinh. Liam clearly looked the shakiest, many iffy landings. Better luck next time, Liam...

 

[moonvine]

Boy I sure hope @Seven Sisters is there so see Daisuke.

 

[moonvine]

So they could have said "we'll be back in 10 minutes" but chose to make me do math instead

 

[moonvine]

@Seven Sisters has undoubtedly fainted dead away at seeing Daisuke so close. There is a defibrillator on the wall next to the ladies room if she needs it.

 

[moonvine]

From @Seven Sisters on another thread:
Pairs practice notes:

Stellato/D look fabulous
Knierim/F Alexa clear winner of practice clothes competition, blue cheetah print and sparkly gloves
Plazas/F challenging practice with several falls
German team fast and strong, ones to watch
Said Buenos Dias to Donovan C & Coach on the way in!

VERY IMPORTANT clear bag policy is being strictly enforced!!!

 

[moonvine]

My babies are coming out to warm up!

 

[moonvine]

I just don't get the asymmetrical skirt thing. My eyes are drawn to the skirt rather than anything else. Maybe that's the point?

Dreadful cover count: 1. Is that Charro?
