On-site & practice reports

[silverfoxes]

I cannot stand Liam's music...not sure I've ever liked any of his choices, though.

I put Misha a bit higher in my predictions after watching practices. It's pretty tough after the gold & silver to predict the men (and I keep going back & forth with those 2)...I just don't knoooow!

Sasha Petrov expressed his appreciation for the support he received during his practice session yesterday from the children in attendance:

And Daniel Samohin concurred - via google translate:
they are great Brother

Oh, I see now they are skating as in their Short Program starting order. Grant now: not happy with his jumps… conference with his coach… hmm

He also wore a nice red color. Guess it's his competition costume? GO Kevin!

It is his competition outfit.

I'm SO excited!!!!

What's with the girls and gloves this season? I hope they are just wearing them for the practice :handw:

Arrived at practice early this morning (ladies on ice now)... I had a late night following Friday's comps, didn't get back to the hotel until after midnight.

At the hotel this morning, Liza was walking next to me, she sat down near Evgenia in the lobby. The two didn't acknowledge each other or speak. Probably means nothing, as I don't talk to people at 7 in the morning either...

Osmond looked rough at practice this morning. Wonder if she can shake it off and hang on to the top 3 later today?

Did my eyes decieve me or did Evgenia just do 3-3-3-3 in the middle of her LP runthru?

I hope Zhenia considers taking out the screaming out of her program before France.

According to Twitter she done a 3f+3t+3t and 3s+3t+3t+3t both in the program

from twitter: Evgenia Medvedeva’s FS run-through at #SCI16: 3F(tano)3T3T, 3Lz(tano), skating through, StSq, 3Lo, 3S3T3T3T, 2A(tano)3T, CCoSp, LSp.

I'm convinced she does that because she's bored because she so gifted or because she's trying to psyche out other skaters. I'm leaning towards gifted.

I think... if you could do 3-3-3 and 3-3-3-3 regularly so just 3-3 it's not a problem when you perform..... good training

Here's a clip of the 3-3-3-3 combo:
