[RatedPG]

I know. When she fell in the first 3 seconds of her program, I thought, oh no !! Will this be what I can expect today?
She did okay. For her standard, not bad.

Jump landings a bit tight, but not a bad fight back after the unexpected fall at the start of the program

 

[RatedPG]

OMG! Skate Canada is cruel with their PCS scores compared to other countries. Not even close to 20.

Not loving this cover, to be honest Better than last year at the same time, but she's still some way off from her top form. Let's wait for the Free,

Kara changed coaches... now she just needs to change her music

The worst cover is definitely Kara's... i am about to

I guess the same can be said for Kara as for Aleksa? Her jumps have always been on the smaller side, unfortunately. Don't love that she kept this program either.

Why this cover? Please Poor Stavrina, things really did not go her way today

 

[4everchan]

I am hoping for much better for Stavrina. I like her powerful style.

 

[4everchan]

It is nice seeing Yvan. One of my coach crushes

 

[4everchan]

Lucille ; Clean. Issuing a huge warning to the older skaters

 

[Jumping_Bean]

I unfortunately missed most of Lucille's skate, I'm sorry

She seems to have kept her Short from last season? Or at least the costume.
Nice to hear that she went clean, I liked her a lot at Nationals last season.

She tried a 3Lz+3T at Lake Placid but opted for a secure 3Lz+2T instead here, and it has paid off - 51.68 for her.

American in Paris if my musical worm memory is still okay

Score: 44.01

So sad Reese wasn't able to deliver a similar skate here as at Ontario Sectionals. This program is fun, she's such a fast skater, her spins are amazing, her jumps big (if a bit leg-wrappy) and she has nice extension - Now the nerves only have to cooperate.

 

[RatedPG]

Poor Rose! The worst SP I’ve ever seen from her

 

[Jumping_Bean]

At least she seems to be taking it quite well, she's adorable

American in Paris if my musical worm memory is still okay

I double checked the programs thread for what I had from Lake Placid, it was American in Paris.

Not watching right now (office day), so I am enjoying all the play by play

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Despite falling twice, her PCS are still some of the highest so far, that's big for her.

I feel like I should know this music, but I can't place it. Love her dress though, and definitely fits the elf-ish vibes of the music.
