Wakaba Higuchi

Maybe now she'll get the PCS she deserves next season!

And, more importantly, maybe this will give her the self-confidence she's needed all along.

YES, I hope JSU is biting their nails and standing with their face towards the wall somewhere. Hope they put their faith and support in her next season!!
 
With Osmond's scores, I think this was the absolute BEST Wakaba could possibly have hoped for. Gold was out of reach, yet she managed the silver. Amazing job! :clap:

Defeating Satoko is also a very important benchmark for her. Hopefully the fed will open their eyes.. pff, as if. But this still should help with PCS. Usually world medalists get a bonus.
 
Wakaba was absolutely stunning tonight!!! She brought the house down and we all stood clapping for her!!! Amazing!!!!
 
Congratulations to Wakaba on her silver medal! She stayed strong and slayed. Love how she wears her heart on her sleeve, showing how much a good performance means to her. It was a good strategic decision to do the triple sal as an opening jump and save the surefire double axel for later.
Hopefully this will be the start of bigger and better things for her.

And the Japanese ladies are back! :)
 
OMG, can’t believe what just happen! She did it, she finally did it when it counts! Congrats for the well deserved sliver! :agree::yahoo::clap:
 
VERY glad to see that program done to perfection.. and her reaction was priceless. So pleased for her.
 
So unspeakably proud of Wakaba today!! I cried with her when her skate ended. What a glorious triumph over a tough season. Here's to hope this begins a long string of medals for her!!
 
Gorgeous skate from Wakaba today and well deserved Silver Medal. Congratulations!!!!
 
Congratulations, Wakaba! So well-deserved!

Also, yes, bring on the "World medalist PCS boost" - no one deserves it better. Her style is powerful, dynamic, exciting & epic - a style undervalued in skating, especially in ladies where skaters are expected to be either "pretty princess" or "sassy siren"; either you are supposed to be an eathereal otherworldy creature or a flirty come-hither type - and Wakaba is neither.
 
:biggrin:

Major congrats to her and that PCS will come now, knock on wood. I'm still in shock, amazing performance, best of the day for me.
