Wakaba Higuchi

I listened to her FS music and I think it is definitely different from what she has done in the past, but I am happy to see Waka challenging herself. I want to see the program before saying more, I think it provides a nice contrast to her SP.
 
I have loved the music choices for the programs, Wakaba is a very versatile and charismatic girl. I want to see that 3A !!


This season there is a lot of competition among the Japanese girls, but Waka is still my favorite Japanese girl, I wish her a season full of success and joys.

Go, Wakaba!! :hap10:
 
Don't know if this is the right place to post this but this is me every week at the gym:
*6 minutes into using the stair master on lvl 10 b/c I'm unfit for the life of me*
-"I'm going to die. This is hell. Someone save me."
*Turns on Wakabond 2018 Worlds FS on phone*
-"lvl 13 here I come!"
*Wakabond does her dramatic head swish with raw passion on her face before entering her step sequence*
-"AHHHHHHHHHH LEGGOOOOOOOOO LVL 20"
*Finishes workout while looking at Wakaba's face of Redemption*
-";-; Is this sweat or tears"
 
Wakaba's FS is to 'Hymne à l'amour' https://www.hochi.co.jp/sports/winter/20180724-OHT1T50109.html

(The Japanese GP competitors' camp is currently underway, so most of the skaters' new programs are being announced via news at the moment.)

Further info about Wakaba's FS (from Kanto Summer Trophy she competed in): she skates to Hymne à l'amour by Patricia Kaas, with lyrics. Wakaba is in red costume. But alas her condition for the competition doesn't seem to be good. It is reported that the program is beautiful....
 
So there are lyrics.
People said the program is beautiful so i will just wait to see it at autumn classic.

“Higuchi debuted FS “Hymne à l'amour”. She rated herself low, -50 points, but eagerly wants to show her “Love for skating” perfectly next time. “

“She failed jumps in the second half and seemed to be disappointed after the finish. (But bowed with a smile.:agree2:) Her expression of “stillness” in the performance with speed was really impressive and dramatic.”

It seems that her costume was red wine color, and fit her well. :luv17:

This is her dress- https://twitter.com/wakahfans/status/1028508255666851840?s=21
Yes, she is wearing at a show here but it is proven that this is her long program dress because this is a picture from the competition where you can see the skirt is the same:

shame for the pops I must say that it worries me a little but congratulations for this victory,
I listened to the version of Patricia Kass it is a little soft but it is less bad than I expected now I look forward
see the choreography if it's awesome as his sp on the califfa
then it's possible that this is going to be one of my favorites.

I cross the doigts for the ACI she lands his jumps without Urs and his performances are a success.


Congratulations for entering the top 10 historic records.

The good news is that according to the protocols she had 4, 3 and -5, the mausaise she lost level on the step sequence but I'm sure she will continue to dazzle us and continue to grow.
 
I see more potential with this music versus her original choice :) I do like it when she skates to more obscure classical music/contemporary music like Skyfall but there are plenty of awesome program opportunities with the Four Seasons so I look forward to its debut!
 
It seems that Wakaba has a change in her FS program, so now it's Vivaldi's 'Four seasons' (Choreographer: Bourne):

Adding: she'll debute the new program at Autumn Classics.

What???
I’m shocked!

Was it the plan all along?
I mean, maybe the Edith Piaf was supposed to be an EX and her actual FS was in the making?

Well, I’m looking forward to see her new program.
 
Hi Wakaba fans, Thank you for your updates! :)

From this article..
https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2018/09/13/kiji/20180913s00079000128000c.html

- Wakaba showed her practice to media on Sep 13, and told that she changed her FS music to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons.
- At first she prepared for skating with “Hymne à l'amour”, but she decided to change it early in August because “I want to use this music after I mature more”.
- The new program was promptly created with Shae-Lynn Bourne’s choreography. “I’m using Summer and Winter. I hope to skate as if I dash across the rink in Winter, and express passionate performance with steps in Summer.“
- Regarding 3A, “I want to focus on my program first, rather than 3A. After I nail my jumps for sure, then I will try 3A with a room in my mind”.

Honestly I’m not surprised at her decision. (because at the announcement of FS music, she said she could change the music if it doesn’t go well with her.) ;)
Good luck with the new program Wakaba! :agree:
 
I worry a little about her not only for her late change of FS but also for those jumps and cramps that occurred during practice.

Why is his team so negligent? fingers crossed so that she does not hurt, it does not matter if she does not win or not on the podium but I hope she will be careful.


on a note joyous I like the color of her dress but I do not like the style of the dress but it suits him well, but I prefer the one that she to show in the practice of yesterday , fortunately it was only temporary
