I'm super excited to see Wakaba's SP because the music seems really interesting! I hope they haven't picked a sad french song, I don't really think it would fit her style

I've just listened to the song they picked for the short and I think it's so fitting for Wakaba! Has she performed it at Dreams on Ice? If so, will we get a video?
 
kinda nice that Wakababy took out the beginning open lock mime. when I showed this MJ ex to my friend (not figure skating fan). it was referred as sooo awkwardly cute.:biggrin::p
 
This is Wakaba's new SP at the competition 'Aqua Cup':

2A 1Lz 3F-2T
Music:「Energia」by Sofi Tukker

Wakaba is in white shining costume, it's reported that the SP is full of lots of dancing movement.

Update: programme components - 2A、FCSp、CCoSp、1Lz*、3F2T、StSq、LSp

(It seems that the scores are not announced right after each skating but published after the competition is finished. And it's not for sure if the new scoring system is incorporated or not!)

I LOVE the new SP music choice. Different and inspired. Shae-Lynne Bourne is the best choreographer working right now.
 
Hello Wakaba fans,
Last Monday I went to the mini show, “Jingu Figure Skate Club Ice show”:luv17:

Its video is here: https://twitter.com/figureskate5ch
(Same source to amonemae’s?)

Wakaba’s message in the video:
It was not a competition, but they all rooted for me, so I could stake comfortably.
This music is livening up more and more. I need to speed up to catch it up. Otherwise, I can lose to the music. So, I’m practicing hard.
Step sequence is in the last part. It’s very tough. I’m trying to keep dancing even after I get tired. I want to make it possible before the start of the season.


The ice show was for about 45 minutes with only stand-room ticket (310 yen!). The audience, about 200 people, was different from usual ice shows/competitions in Japan. Most of them were families with small children, who wanted to skate after the show. ;)

Anyway, Wakaba’s SP, Energia, was a really cool program, and fits her very well.:dance:
I heard she asked SLB to make a program with a lot of dance movements like Ashley Wagner’s.
Which Ashley’s program did Wakaba imagine..? Hip Hip Chin Chin?

I can't wait to seeing its progress! Go Wakaba!! :yahoo:
 
I love the entries of the jumps.
That step-sequence seems very energetic. She will need a good stamina to skate it perfectly and get a level 4.
 
Thank you! :) This article says..

There were two candidates fo Wakaba’s FS music.
“Hymne a l'amour” and the other one, in the genre that she has skated with before.
Wakaba preferred the other one, but Yuka Sato told her “If you skate fully with “Hymne a l'amou”, you can grow.”
So, Wakaba thought “If it doesn’t go well, I can just change the music!” Now she prepared herself for it. ;)

Honestly, I cannot imagine Wakaba skating with this music, but I'm expecting her new adventure. :agree:
