2019 Four Continents Ladies Free Skate

[Ross74]

really??? thank god I don’t have NBC gold

Weir isn't on NBC Gold. He's on NBC TV. NBC Gold is blessedly without commentators for this.

 

[mirai4life]

... Wait Mihara Mai is on podium she's not the potato queen here

is this real life?

 

[brens78]

Sadness for Kaori and Bradie but happy for Mai to finally get a medal for once!

 

[Seren]

Poor Kaori, I hope she uses her disappointment as fuel for Worlds.

 

[Tonichelle]

really??? thank god I don’t have NBC gold

He's not on NBC Gold. The streaming has no commentary.

 

[oly2018]

Well....that happened.

 

[rikaquegira]

wow, this was high level FS dramatic turn of events at its best! Wow!!!

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Has Kaori always jumped like this ? She sort of takes off with two feet on most jumps.. Looks sort of labored and overall a little low? Was that just her struggling today or is that normal for her?

I don’t remember having that impression before but I have t seen her perform in a while too.

 

[lizardlass]

Crazy comp! That missed combo really cost Kaori. It's okay, bb, come back strong for worlds!

 

[BillNeal]

Only 0.67 separated the silver medalist and 4th place...

 

[firal]

Gutted for Kaori, her trying to keep up a cheery face and hiding her tears from everyone....Mai is sure the Cinderella girl! Kaori's coaches were talking about how much she climbed
up onto the podium as well in the kiss and cry.

Congrats winners!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

4th?!?!?!?!

 

[ancientpeas]

This is really nice for Elizabet as I don't think she has had a very good season so far.

 

[twirlingblades]

crushed for bradie and kaori. very happy for the medalists! medal for elizbet!

 

[Noxchild]

Kaori is an insanely strong and resilient competitor, and this performance doesn't change that one bit! I am sure she will kill it at Worlds.

But also... RIKA WON :hap93:

And Mai finally got her groove back and podiumed!?!?!??!

Plus... Tursy?! who woulda thunk it

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Well....that happened.

No

 

[skylark]

Wow! What an upset! That was one interesting competition!

I'm so happy for Rika, and I'm thrilled for Mai! As for Elizabet ... I think she must be very happy about her coaching change (back), which really does seem to suit her.

 

[rikaquegira]

I cannot believe my bb Kihira keeps her gold medal streak!! Amazing!!!
now I’m freaking out about Worlds even more.

 

[oatmella]

Wonder if anyone correctly predicted the podium?!

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Poor Kaori, I hope she uses her disappointment as fuel for Worlds.

That is the best use of a disappointing outing. I’d be all for it!!
