Mai :luv17: its always great to see the joy on and esp off the ice PCS could have been higher though
Absolutely agree! That was a cracking performance that deserved more :scowl:
she got 30+ at both of her GP event so one would think she would get higher here since its "nationals" and everyone is getting "inflated" PCS
Rika getting higher PCS than Wakaba and Marin is kind of a joke...
Hongo deserves the PCS I think but I'm still waiting for videos
Right! Poor Mai
Marin was simply STUNNING! Her skating skills are to die for, transitions beautifully included in the program, her softness is just amazing.. Technically, her Camel Spin was not at her best and the StSq was again considered level 2.. I wonder why they didn't include some difficult steps in that to gain level 3 or 4, it is from the start of the season that she get level 2
Aniway, she absolutely deserved more PCS. She is one of the most polished and expressive skaters in the world, for me
So I was ablte to find videos of ladies sp in YT. My thoughts on a few I watched.
Kanako... girl that costume is err... I don't know. Well, I like her smiles at the end of her programs but it annoyed me today. Low score, I wish she didn't have to be so happy about it . It doesn't make sense to me unless she didn't come to win.
Rika... she's underscored in her previous competitions so I'm glad she brought her A game here. Obviously, I'll be downloading this performance and save it to my PC.
Satoko... sort of bland to me but she's got such an airy quality, she moves light on the ice. Her spins are nice and again, congratulations for getting first. Good luck with the LP.
Wakaba... nicely done. Nice flow and connection to her music. Love that guts pose at the end.
Marin... Besides that stsq (which I thought is kind of simple) , overall a lovely lovely skate. Looking forward to her LP.
Still waiting for some others to be uploaded.
Where are the videos, please?
