When I look at every member of #TeamTrainwreck, past and present, they all are extremely likeable personalities, maybe over-the-top and dramatic in some cases, but you want to cheer for every single one to succeed and overcome the odds. :cheer: They all have endearing qualities.

And what they might lack in natural talent, they more than make up for in terms of hard work, personality, and character.

What an ode to all #teamtrainwreck-members! Love it :encore:
 
Pity LaTuk has a world title, because it's just not going to happen for her unless she nails the 3A. Her 3T-3T combo and lack of quality spins is killing her compared to the rest of the Russian ladies. :( She has to be squeaky clean and more important, they have to falter in order for her to make the team.

I was pleased that little Rose managed to hang on today, but I fear she's off the podium after the free. Zagitova is going to come back with a vengeance in the free. Radionova and LaTuk will have to be perfect to hang on or to come up enough for 3rd. And, then Daleman and Higuchi will have to make mistakes. :wuzrobbed: I hate having to rely on others to make mistakes because that's bad skating. I want everybody to nail their programs and let the best skater win.

They are #TTW members in my heart right along with Pogo.
 
At this point I think Elena and Liza will need Sotskova to UR all over the place (AND get called for it at Nationals) to make the Olympic team. At an international event with a strict caller, I could see that happening as its been a regular occurrence for Sots both last season and this season. At Nationals though I don’t think they will scrutinize her jumps so closely and because she’s consistent it means she’ll probably make the team.

I guess Tsurskaya could still be a spoiler but last I heard she was still dealing with injuries so I have no idea what to expect from her this season.
 
I have just spent the past hour binging on COC videos. :p

La Tuk. LOVE the new dress, I swear she looks more and more like Perkova every time I see her. :glamor: Good skate but at a minimum, she needs to be doing the 3toe-3toe in the bonus to be more competitive. I want a 3axel attempt AND Sandstorm in the LP. I enjoyed that half of her replayed elements were footwork boob shimmies. :cheer: And she beat Petrov's score, so there's that. :p

Rose. Surprised and happy she scored well. That footwork sequence gets better each time she does it, bonus points for the dress, too. Really good spins, interesting positions and speed.

Han Yan. :fragile: He is so :smokin: :smokin: :smokin: yet so :fragile:. Gorgeous axel, the quad was gigantic, but then he biffs the combo. He overcomes the terrible music. :gallopin1

Kevin Reynolds. GO ELVIS!!!!!!! SLAY AT NATIONALS PLEASE.

And Sui/Han are giving me serious heart palpations concerning the Empress and PrincessSusie. If they're clean, they will win. They are gorgeous, have suffered through the feds lack of support, injuries and I feel I should be happy, but I won't be. :wuzrobbed
 
So, finally rewatched CoC; as expected, a kinda cool-off-GP after the last 2 :D

Higuchi - I don't like her butchery way of skating, but I do love the SP!
