2018 JGP Linz Ladies Free Skate

[flanker]

I can never get tired of Ted's commentary, he should do that more often

I wish he would do commentary on junior worlds

 

[TheBallerina]

Anyone gonna nerd out with me for the medal ceremony?

I love medal ceremonies!

 

[leoleo]

i'm staying too! i love seeing the girls hugging each other during the medals ceremony! :luv17:

 

[iorii]

I love medal ceremonies!

Count me in!

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Will the dancing bird reappear for the medal ceremony?

I bet Ted is interviewing Alena in English right now :hap85:

Oh my I am so anxious to see this. She was so sweet last year, her English is adorable :luv17:

 

[Ichatdelune]

She also definitely touchable. Just no one here can. Trusova and Scherbakova are probably the only ones.

I was talking about the other competitors for this event only, but yes, of course Sasha Trusova and Anna S with their quads (especially Sasha Trusova, from what I've seen she's a bit more consistent on those quads) are powerful rivals. I'm waiting to see how Sasha does next week, especially whether she'll land her quad lutz.

 

[leoleo]

protocols say Kostorka got a ! on her 3lz combo!
Shiika a ! on her flip
Haein got some < too!

 

[xeyra]

Congrats on bronze, Shiika!

 

[TheBallerina]

I love ceremonies where they play a small part of their LP music during the skater's introduction :luv17:
Oh Alenka's smile :luv17:

 

[Colonel Green]

The protocols.

- Alena Kostornaia got another ! on her Lutz.
- Shiika Yoshioka got a UR on the 3S and a ! on her flip.
- Ouch, poor Anna Kuzmenko, a UR and two outright downgrades.
- Yay, Emma got both of her 2As called clean this time, as opposed to the downgrade in the short.

 

[iorii]

Alenka's hands looked like they couldn't stay still--like she was itchy to hold the bouquet or something

 

[Ichatdelune]

No ! on her 3F for Haein, I'm proud of her :luv17: And she had (slightly) better PCS than Yoshioka Shiika, you have a bright future ahead of you girl

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

I love the Russian National anthem!!

 

[iorii]

I love ceremonies where they play a small part of their LP music during the skater's introduction :luv17:
Oh Alenka's smile :luv17:

When Alenka's music played I truly realized that I'm a sucker for R&J...

 

[leoleo]

look at how small kostorka is!

 

[Anni234]

Alena is so happy she makes me happy

Ah, I misunderstood. I hope Sasha does go for her 4Lz. Last week Anna didn’t go for her 4Lz and Young didn’t attempt her 3A. I fear -5/+5 is making girls play it safe.

 

[TheBallerina]

Alena is so happy she makes me happy

Yes it really is contagious :luv17: I am happy to see her smiling, she seemed a little bit nervous after her skate...I think she does not realise just how special her skating is :luv17:

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

The Japanese guys came to support Shiika :agree:
