2017 Autumn Classic Intl Ladies SP

[Sabrina]

Is Alaine 4th? I can't believe C. Hicks is in third, weird competition, except for Kaetlyn and Mai.

I enjoyed that program. She is like a breath of fresh air!

Only caught the last few unfortunately. I enjoyed Livvy's performance despite the technical problems. Also, I'm not in the habit of critiquing costumes, but I think her dress is absolutely stunning.

I just realized that this competition started today. Was looking at the results and was like who TF is "Olivia Josephine Shiling" and then realized it was Livvy. Whoops.

Kaetlyn Osmond's SP tune is stuck in my head.

oh my... mai got 3Fe last season her lutz still ! not a clear outside but now she got 3Fe.... cant belive that tbh

So Kaetlyn Osmond decided to go back to her SP of last season? After watching her new sp in a summer competition, I commented that she'd better reuse her old sp, and it happened.

I love Kaetlyn's short but she should change it a bit to put that 3Lz in second half. She needs to do more to compete for medals, especially at Olympics. Mai's program has so much potential, I wish she could keep her focus like she did before her combo, obviously needs to be faster and sharper for this music but I really like this program. Spins looked good, jumps were smooth as ever (that flip edge call is worrying though). I would give her a bit higher PCS for that tbh but with work she will get there.

She did not deserve that edge call on her flip. Underscored and underserved call, should be a ! at best.

re Mai's edge call...

I think she just slipped here or picked too early ??: https://youtu.be/DcblPhwKYY4?t=1m49s (watch it on slow motion)

At 4cc, the jump is much clearer

I am definitely not an expert but i can see the difference between those two... and in light of that, I wouldn't worry... it's seems like a weird silly mistake...not the beginning of bad technique from her part.

Lol that we still have somewhat sensible scores here at SCAI... now this make me feel not so right about Lombardia. What they were thinking...

 

[Barb]

Mai´s step seq is really nice. And I like Kaetlyn´s skating but I HATE this porgram.

in case you missed it : Kaetlyn just recently decided to go back to Piaf... her summertime program had the lutz in the second half... perhaps it is in the plan to move the jump around in the future but there was probably no time for that as the decision was taken after HPC which was held in late August...

I know that figure skating can be decided by a very small margin... however, in the case of Kaetlyn, the lutz in the second half would only add up 0.6 points before GOE... and of course, there is no guarantee that she would land it so cleanly later in the program. Here she got massive GOE for it, better than for her other elements.

I really like Mai's short. Still a pretty good call despite the e on the flip. Hope she delivers in the free.
