I'm going to visit Finlandia Trophy also this time and I can't wait to see her new free program. I hope she will impress me and win the competition!

Enjoy the live competition!
Good luck to Rika!

They have it turned "off" while the skaters are not on the ice. It should be working soon.

Yes I am. I'm posting in the main thread for the competition, located here. Stream is still not on yet, but their warm-up should be over by now :think: (There have been a few stream problems today + yesterday, so...)

eta: never fear, it is working now!

Rika scored a SP PB yesterday with 65.75, came within 1 point of her FS PB, & now her TSS has beaten her previous PB with 187.45

Congratulations! Rika won the gold at Finlandia arty:

eta: And I'd posted a medal table in the OP just the other day & now I've gladly edited it to include her first medal of the season. Way to go, Rika!

Hopefully just the first medal of more to come this season!

Yay Rika!!

Love her Riverdance, and I'm expecting it to look more polished as the season progresses. Her SP is my favorite though because it's so unique! She URs sometimes, but never falls. I am always so confident when she skates!

I have never really been a fan but I ABSOLUTELY LOVED her LP today it was very fun and special!!! Just great! I will be rooting for her as the season goes on!

 

[Eclair]

Congratulations Rika! You were awsome today!

I think I've found a new favourite! OMG how I love her spunk, energy and consistency! She was first after the sp and didn't let nerves get hold of her. That's a great foundation to build on!

Love her And she was so gracious, when she bowed to the flower girls, lol (though I know bowing in japan is no big deal)

 

[Seruleane]

Congrats, Rika! Another new fan (looks like she has many)

Congratulations Rika! Temporarily changed my avatar to celebrate

Congrats to Rika! Such big improvements and great programmes!

 

[dna5019]

Stopping by to offer my congrats to Rika for her win! Her FS is definitely one of my favorites this season. :yes:

 

[solani]

Impressive skate today! She only missed the loop and that she's a bit sloppy sometimes is understandable, because she must get the timing right and this will get better as the season progresses. The japanese ladies look mighty fine this season! I really like her energy level, dedication, music choices and styling. Very classy. Loved the 2A-3T-2T.

Love her program! You wouldn't expect this to be good fit for her but it totally is!
