It's such a shame about Alyssa Czisny's jumps failing her, because her spins are unbelievably fast and beautiful--just what I want to see in a spin; and her positions and stretch are first rate. I don't know what can be done. New coach? Sports psychologist? She should be a competitor and she is not.
Sasha was fabulous, and that costume is exquisite.
Kimmie has already matured considerably in her presentation. She needs to work on her s-t-r-e-t-c-h. That spiral position is hideous with that bent knee. Also, more speed on her spins would help. They lack energy and passion.
Very unimpressed with Shizuka. She lacks fire. As I'm watching her, she doesn't even look like she wants to be on the ice.
Too bad about Joannie's fall. I enjoyed her skating for the most part, she really is energetic, and I would have liked to see her win the bronze.
Tanith and Ben's program was gorgeous, love the Spanish theme. I hope that is their free dance for this season.
Men: Missed Johnny and Michael, unfortunately. Was considerably underwhelmed by Evan. What did Frank mean by "There are things in your program that no one else in the world can do..." Like WHAT? The choreography was dull and the presentation even more dull.
Nice to see Takeshi back, but he still seems a shadow of his former self. He wasn't wearing toilet paper, but that costume looked like it was held together by bandaids.
