Susanna Poykio so so graceful

[russell30]

I loved watching Susanna Skate at worlds, she moves so graceful across the ice and her free program set to Munich is a masterpiece!!

I hope she keeps this for next season, I would love Susanna to skate to either Schindlers List or Ave Maria for her short- that would be fantastic.

I hope everyone that appreciates her skating skills, transitions and choreography to say well done!!

I´m glad the skating of Poykio pleases you so much! I like it very much, too... She has been my Finnish favourite for many years now.

Agree, she has an almost fairy-tale princess quality about her.
Must be those high Finnish cheekbones.....

Poykio is one of the biggest refreshment out there on ice. I hope she does stay to 2010, because her skating is always great to watch and performs one of the few "Kwanish" programs left out there. It's a pity that her PCS are still way undermarked most times, literally some of the best edges and stroking in skating today. I do hope she can grab a medal at Euro's next year, and pioneer 3 ladies spot for Worlds and Olympics by 2010!!

Yes, Susanna is a lovely, lyrical skater and wonderful to watch. I hope she could still push her limits by trying 3-3's and add some speed to her step sequences, and she would be near the top. Anyway, she's my number one favorite of the Finns at the moment and has been for years. And I think Schindler's list would be a good choise for her next year!

I find her refreshing. She feels the music. She is a beauty.

Susanna is really underrated on PCS. Am I only one who feels that giving Kimmie Meissner higher points for interpretion and execution is a blatant crime?

Btw... High Finnish cheekbones? I think we Finns have totally normal cheekbones.

i really like this skater and the munich soundtrack is amazing music. I wish that ESPN had broadcast her... i didn't see it. I did however see it on Youtube. Lovely. Her speed across the ice is great and the flow out of the jumps is really amzing. I would like to see her skate to somthing really fast and show of that speed!

According to the judges, Kimmie is better at these things than anyone other than Mao and Yu-Na.

I'm glad someone else threw the "Kwanish" out there, in addition to program "type" I also see the consistent pace of stroking in Poykio that I hadn't seen since Kwan. I loathe the speeding up and slowing down of stroking or the little steps going into jumps, etc. Even our top new phenoms (Mao, Yu-Na) pale to Poykio in just watching them stroke.

I just watched her Worlds LP on you-tube. Now that is figure skating, just beautiful.

I agree pure class, This is why the PCS should be marked separate to TES. someone like Poykio should be getting 60-65? come on ISU do your stuff??
