Congratulations, Anna! What a marvellous performance, and what a triumph for the Firebird! I have to say, for the first time this season, I realised that she still is the Firebird in that first half of the programme - I don't know why I never caught the wing beats until today, and I feel very blind, but also very glad to have seen it. She was so perfect in this performance, the costume change gave me gooseflesh as always, and when she ended exactly on that final note, wow!
Her quads are breathtaking in their height and their flight over the ice, her spins are lovely - I just want to know why she never looks pained in them, the way other skaters so often do - and her ability to stay on the music even when it was barely audible over the applause is really astonishing. She has worked hard for this moment of triumph, and my gosh, does she deserve it. Brava, Anna, brava!
