Skate to Milano OWG Qualifier - Beijing CHN - Women's SP & FS

[Belsornia]

Well, she’s giving it more than Safonova and spins were strong but jumps, especially in the first half were a bit scrappy. Should be behind Hendrickx and Gubanova but probably won’t.

 

[Karen-W]

Are you effing kidding me? Ted says that none of the jumps were called for rotations. That's a joke.

 

[beckab81]

It's a better performance and fit for her than the short IMO. I think the GOE was high, but the spins were nice. I wish she would be pushed to develop more artistically, but clearly the judges don't care.

 

[npavel]

the judges don't appreciate the pcs of mature skaters, they only see strong tes and give out too much goe to the little one

And I have to run as I have an event to get to

 

[peibeck]

Poor Stefania, fifth in both segments but sixth overall. That's got to make the result smart even more.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I think Loena may have won the free skate had the double became a triple.

 

[peibeck]

Are you effing kidding me? Ted says that none of the jumps were called for rotations. That's a joke.

You can see she's got the Eteri pre-rotation gimmick even with the triples, but the panel obviously only cares about the landings, and even a couple of those were questionable.

I'll wait for @tony to tell me I'm insane.

 

[jennysk8oboe]

I loved how you could hear a pin drop at the end of Gubanova’s program. The audience was mesmerized.

 

[peibeck]

What is Mark smoking? A seductress?!

Can I seduce you into a piece of strawberry cake?

 

[Karen-W]

Can I seduce you into a piece of strawberry cake?

It's a strawberry smoothie, dammit! Or a strawberry parfait! Or something.

Someday, I want Shcherbakova to come live in the West and drop the real tea on whether or not she refrigerated any strawberry confection for Valieva during that train trip from Moscow to St Petersburg in December 2021.

Loena Hendrickx
Rank after SP: 3

Step Sequence 4
3Lz+2T+2Lo

Much better skate today for Hendrickx, but the program is her usual, and not particularly interesting or entertaining.

138.04 = 1st Place
204.96 = 1st Place

 

[marbri]

Is Safanova AIN for Belarus?

 

[peibeck]

C'mon now @Karen-W Eteri would NEVER say "Let them eat SMOOTHIES!"

 

[Karen-W]

Is Safanova AIN for Belarus?

Yes

 

[PRlady]

What is the music?

 

[skatingguy]

Anastasiia Gubanova
Rank after SP: 2
Coach: Evgeni Rukavitsin
Music: Ghost The Musical

3F+3T

Flying Camel Spin 4
3Lz+2A+2T+SEQ - tight landings
3Fq+2T

Step Sequence 3 (4 after review)

Sit Spin 4

Very strong skate for Gubanova today, and held the emotions of the music throughout the performance

138.15 = 1st Place
206.23 = 1st Place

 

[marbri]

What is the music?

Does ISU have a theme song? I know in Aquatics they have been using World Aquatics theme song for AIN athletes.

 

[skatingguy]

Adeliia Petrosian

Rank after SP: 1
Coach: Eteri Tutberidze, Sergei Dudakov
Music: Nocturne No. 1 in D Minor, Yo Soy Maria

3Lz+2A+2A+SEQ
3F+3T

Layback Spin 4
Step Sequence 3

Solid technical skate with a couple of tight jumps, probably due to nerves. Adeliia has a nice style, line, and finish to her performance but the program was flat.

140.91 = 1st Place
209.63 = 1st Place

 

[SkateFanBerlin]

Most happy about Leona and her choices today were right on. She has a bit of the Ashley problem - so busy performing she flubs an element or two. Ashley did best when she toned it down a little. And so has Leona. With this success on the elments she can go back and find another 10 points!

Well, as I think I said earlier, I think if she would’ve turned that double into a triple it would’ve been enough of a difference to win the free.

 

[caseyedwards]

And now she vanishes for 4 months while skaters like Hendrix and gubanova are everywhere! I’d much rather be a loser who can be everywhere than a winner who must vanish

 

[Miezekatze]

Is Safanova AIN for Belarus?

Yeah, I guess so. I admit when she first started I thought she's Russian and was confused about their obvious decline, but then I remembered she looks familiar and I think I've actually seen her live at Nebelhorn. Her height and look is sort of very cool, but she doesn't use it well.

I'm happy for Leona and Gubanova, didn't expect such good shape from both of them!

Petrosian reminded me of Madeline Schizas, but I think it's the combination of the music and look.

Adelia’s posture is much better than Schizas, I could tell the difference if they were skating with masks. I wish Petrosian had another coach and choreographer.

Oh, she is. Born in Moscow. She switched to BLR when she was a teenager.

 

[zigzig]

Apologies if already discussed but why was judge 5's marks discarded?

 

[skatfan]

Catching up from overnight to watch the top three on replay. Petrosian is fine technically but Danny G choreo is eh. She didn’t emote but I’ll give her a pass given the stressful circumstances. I wouldn’t have given her the win in the free. Nevertheless, I can see her winning a medal, even the gold, in Milano.

Gubanova had the performance of the event! Having watched her implode in Boston, it’s so good to see her back, skating better than she has in a couple of seasons.

Hendricks was ok. Very glad she skated well but it was clear that the focus was on the tech. Will reserve judgment on the program until the GPs.

 

[SkateFanBerlin]

Oh, she is. Born in Moscow. She switched to BLR when she was a teenager.

All the best ones start in the Russian Empire. How about the girl from Cyprus? Probably, St. Petersburg.

You would be correct, lol!

Came here looking for comments, but I don’t know why. ??? It was CHEN Dan of Hong Kong.
