kathyrine kang,

sigh,two unfortunate falls,
otherwise, very elegant

music to ana maria, which really suits her.

3 lutz, 2t, well executed.
awkward fall on 3s
flying sit spin
step sequence, beautiful, but slow,
another fall,, she just lost her focus
regained her composure, and land beautiful 2a
spiral,
combination spins including nice layback

I am already nervous for Lesley Hawker. come on lesley you need to bring it tonight.

 

[netnuts]

so far only one lady landed a 3lutz, i believe...

 

[fumie_fumie]

devon neuls,

skate to the promise, she choreographed the program herself.

started off with good speed
wonky landing on 2a with terrible lean
fall on 3lutz, again, because of the lean, very extreme inside edge,
sit spin, ok
step sequence lyrical, lost balance, as she lost her focus
3s, no height, and another wonky landing
spiral sequence good
good combination spin to end.

she is going to be a way, way down.

sherrer,

music to sasha cohen's signature mala (sp)
3t-2t good, solid
doubled the planned 3 loop
good arch on layback
spread eagle to 2a, good speed in/out of jumps
straight line sequence, good use of music,
deathdrop to sit spin, good change of edge
spiral to musical highlight
to final sit spin.

I absolutely LOVED kathyrine kang!! What poise and maturity! and a beautiful line.

And she's just gorgeous! I hope she brings it in the long!!!

 

[netnuts]

finally

finally somebody landed a couple of difficult jumps. 3f+2t, 3loop, 2a...

 

[fumie_fumie]

erika tisluck,

we do have a jumper
2a not much height, turnout
3f-2t, very nice
layback, nice variations
3loop, a little tight on the landing
good speed in combination spin,
step sequence involved a lot of turns, most intricate so far.
spiral, she can do spiral as well.
to arabian to backsit spin to conclude the program.

well done.

Agree. Her program could been far much more enjoyable if not for those falls...pity...

 

[TCTC84]

that 3flip 2toe was gorgeous!

 

[TCTC84]

WOW! Myriane Samson is doing tremendously!! on way to a clean short!

 

[Wrlmy]

That was pretty good!

 

[fumie_fumie]

myriane samson

music: within,

good 2a, she can jump
3lutz, 2 loop, very strong
layback, nice arch on her back
tremendous speed overall
3 flip, the crowd is going to erupt.
nice variation in sitspin
spiral, beautiful
step sequence, she skated with confidence and fire
combination spin

she is very promising.

 

[Wrlmy]

Does Samson have a potential to become a contender given her age?

 

[netnuts]

Does Samson have a potential to become a contender given her age?

She's terribly inconsistent. She did amazingly well at last year's Nationals, but collpased in her following international assignments. Let's see how she'll do in long...
