[Wyliefan]

Hanna withdrew? Hope it wasn't an injury.

 

[Wyliefan]

LOTS of Sunset Boulevard this year.

 

[Wyliefan]

Pretty good job by Starr!

 

[Frau Muller]

Lovely FS from Starr! Gorgeous beige sparkly dress and high bun.
She looked a little winded at the end...doubled over at the boards as she came off the ice...then the camera turned off. Guessing that she won?

 

[Frau Muller]

Confirming the WIN for Starr Andrews. Total 158.64 points (53.03 SP + 105.61 FS).
Hey, it’s a STARRt! ️

Thanks! I've re-posted your links in the Brown's fan thread. The RD video is missing a bit in the middle section (ETA: song is Labi Siffre’s “I Got The”). Their RD begins and ends with Kool Moe Dee's "How Ya Like Me Now."

The same fan also posted this IGTV video of the Browns' Muse FD (4 mins.): https://www.instagram.com/tv/CRNbd4Phg5c/
The Browns with their coach, Joel Dear, and their gold medals are one of IDC's 3 photos here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CRNDj6MrpiF/

Re. LA Open Senior Ladies FS:

LOTS of Sunset Boulevard this year.

Yes, Alex Evans' FS last night (Gabriella Izzo's FS from last year that she's kept this season, Trevor Bucek's Senior SP at Skate Milwaukee... trying to remember who else).

The Downton Abbey piano theme kicked in during Emma Coppess' FS.

Pretty good job by Starr!

Not too shabby for her FS debut this season (105.61). She skated to "Bigger" and "I Was Here" by Beyoncé.

The top 2 Senior men at LA Open were Paul Yeung (180.67 total, 120.13 in FS) and Sebastien Payannet (166.72), while Goku Endo won the Junior Men's event (111.65 in FS, 159.50 total).

 

[Wyliefan]

@Sylvia I think -- I THINK -- that Imogene Schwarz also had a Sunset Boulevard free program at Skate Milwaukee.

 

[Debbie S]

@Sylvia I think -- I THINK -- that Imogene Schwarz also had a Sunset Boulevard free program at Skate Milwaukee.

Yep. And her SP was "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Mixing the 80s and 90s.

Any word which seniors are entered to skate at the Philadelphia Summer Championships? My friends and I are planning to attend on the 31st.

Re-posting here from the new U.S. Women's news thread in GSD:

Gracie is set to skate her SP at Skate Wilmington in the next few days.

I can't link to a schedule online. But I do know that Skate Wilmington begins with solo dance events for all of Wednesday and much of Thursday, followed by novice, junior, and senior ladies short programs Thursday afternoon and evening.

Emmanuel Savary is the lone Senior man entered - link to the Skate Wilmington starting orders/results page: https://ijs.usfigureskating.org/leaderboard/nonqual_results/2021/29820/index.html

I don't see an event schedule posted on the club's event page: https://skatewilm.com/event/skate-wilmington-2021/

Thank you, @AngelaWise - the same company livestreamed Skate Detroit 2 years ago and the video quality was good, from what I recall. Cost for this year is $29.95 USD for all 4 days (Wed.-Sat.) with replay "access until 02/08/2021 [August 2] 12:00 PM" - I wish there was a per day option.

I've been told that Glacier Falls will be livestreamed next week for $10/day (both rinks) which is the same cost for daily admission into the Anaheim ICE facility - results page (currently empty) & schedule links are posted on the club's website (NHL is the main rink): https://glacierfalls.com/

Philadelphia Summer & Collegiate Championships event info (result page links still empty as well): https://iceworkssc.org/events/philadelphia-summer-championships-2/
"All spectators will need to purchase tickets. Ticket pricing is 10.00 /day."

Kate and Matej withdrew as she is wearing a boot due to a foot injury.

 

[jkl]

Interesting start for Lu snd Mitrofanov. It went downhill fast when she fell and he fell on top
Of her.

 

[maureenfarone]

Interesting start for Lu snd Mitrofanov. It went downhill fast when she fell and he fell on top
Of her.

I thought he was going to skate right into her and then he lost his balance and fell on top of her. Hope they are both ok.

 

[jkl]

Lu and Mitrofanov won the Senior Pairs short at Skate Detroit. Let’s just say it was a rough skate for all the teams.

 

[shan]

Is Jr Pairs up next?

 

[jkl]

Yes at 1:15 Eastern
