Practice reports

[Moment]

The Queen showed up

I wonder why Osmond doesn't show up. :think:

Maybe she has access to other rinks?

 

[Moment]

Yuna landed all the jumps. Her 3Lz+3T was massive.

This lady ( https://twitter.com/nrarmour/status/311171524319117314 ) has some practice tweets, mostly about YuNa.

According to ( https://twitter.com/TEDFLETT ), Adelina went for 3Lz-3T-3L (!), but fell on the loop.

No lie, anyone close to the boards -- including more than a dozen photogs -- are staring at Yuna.​

All clean including the flip. Her final combo spin is much improved.

What did Gracie do in practice?
Does anyone know is Ashley has arrived yet?

Perhaps she is planning to attend the ladies practice at the Western Fair Sport Centre rink at 6:30pm.

Great! thank you!

The blonde woman on the ice is Victoria Helgesson. Who are the other brunette women?

She did! She also tried a 3Lz-3L, which was landed but slightly underrotated

Well, it is just a practice, but she looks a bit fatigued. (Could be jet leg, sure). There are certainly shades of the old Yuna, such beautiful lines and stretch....but I wouldn't say she looks especially strong. Certainly though, her skating skills are on a whole 'nother level...

 

[demarinis5]

Thanks for the clip of Yuna! She is looking fit, trained and fabulous!

She looks mighty good. Wow.
Love the big lutz and the 3x3.

The only odd thing was her 2A-2T-2Lo barely cleared the ice. I remember she used to have big 2As.

Yeah, she did look a tad fatigued, and I don't expect her to be the same skater she was in 2010...it is 3 years later which is a long time in the figure skating world. Her 3-3 is just as beautiful as I remembered it though...wowzers.

Isn't it though?! Such height! I suspect she may simply be conserving her emotional/physical energy for what's going to be a draining, pressure-filled week for her. I think she did all her jumps and spins (??) and just skipped over a few of the footwork sections.

I'm not there but I picked up the following tidbits from twitter:

- Ross looked faster in his SP runthrough (clean) than he did at Nationals

- when they called Max to do his runthrough Ross started clapping
