2017 JGP Poland Ladies FS

[EdgeCall]

Ok, that was not the skate she needed, but her fire is amazing. In combination with the dress and the music her intro is just I hope she doesn't get discouraged.

Emmy Ma of USA in a purpley dress with a lot of appliques and sparkle.

Emmy is such an elegant skater!

(Sorry I have to work on a cover letter that I almost forgot was due today, so I'm watching but not commenting as much)

 

[nolangoh]

I like Emmy's spins and the spiral (a la Michelle Kwan), but the jumps and performance are a bit messy today...

 

[Princessroja]

Well, a nailbiting performance from Emmy, but you gotta give her credit, she just makes everything beautiful.

 

[xeyra]

She's a lovely skater. I really like her. Pity about the jump mistakes, though.

Rino, those spins!
But I loved how matching to every note that step sequence was!
Lovely job.

Go Alena!

 

[nolangoh]

Alena has a really nice spring in her jumps. What a jumper!

 

[Anni234]

Alena was amazing! :luv17:

Clean skate, lots of backloading as expected

[xeyra]

She's such a lovely skater.

 

[Totentanz]

That performance was like poetry.. She is so cute. Love Alena a lot!

 

[xeyra]

Go Daria!

 

[EdgeCall]

Well done!

This will be tough for Daria to beat.

This was more than amazing. This was a miracle.

Another clean skate, how do they do it?

FS: 72.91+58.00 = 130.91, 196.55, 2/37

 

[whatif]

Kostornaya is mesmerizing!!!! But this is going to be a nailbiter. I think PCS will decide this.

 

[Totentanz]

Daria did better than her first outing but I guess it won't be enough to beat Alena.
