2023 Skate America Women's Free Skate

[Skatewatcher22]

That program felt like all she did was jump and flail her arms around. Music was not my cup of tea and I thought was very distracting

 

[4everchan]

I do find Loena's programs too similar this season, even though she does it well

I liked the SP. The LP, not so much.

 

[SmileHappy34]

Congratulations to all medalist.

 

[icewhite]

such a great skater, but I hate everything about that program: the "music" (and I really like Madonna), the choreo with all the silly, repetitive arm moves, especially while she's basically just standing, the outfit...
yes, it stands out, but this is not something I enjoy watching

 

[Paulipau]

I mean...the outfit is hideous, the music is just noise and there is a lot of weird hand waving.
But if that's what she likes? Who am I to judge.

GREAT JOB LOENA

 

[SnowWhite]

I liked the SP. The LP, not so much.

Same

 

[Weathergal]

Wow what a look from the judge when Loena finished her routine at the boards. LOL

 

[snd]

even though levito is not as great a skater as loena is i'd have her in 1st here. her crow program is sophisticated and refined

 

[labgoat]

I am not gonna give up on Amber - the season is young and I will keep on willing her on.

 

[cheerknithanson]

I can't believe I might watch the EX. I usually never do that.

 

[elektra blue]

i hate both of her programs this year but congrats! also my baby girl medaled

She'll win. She deserves to.

But at this point, I'm firmly Team Sakamoto so far this season.

This is why I miss the Russians.

 

[FlossieH]

Two Europeans on the podium and no skaters from either Japan or South Korea. Before the SP, I had expected Isabeau and Loena to medal, but thought someone from Japan/Korea would as well.

Hello Mariah!

 

[Paulipau]

even though levito is not as great a skater as loena is i'd have her in 1st here. her crow program is sophisticated and refined

NOPE

 

[FlossieH]

Hello Mariah!

Mariah Bell???

 

[labgoat]

Gonna take a dinner break - if I can stay awake I will see you for the Gala

 

[RatedPG]

Wow!! Over 220!!
This is the first time she surpassed this score!!
Well deserved. She skates like a woman and I think this could be a staple year in her career!

 

[EdgeCall]

Mariah Bell???
