2025 Skate Canada Womens FS PBP - I Screamed a Scream

Shaking her head. I don't know if it's a "damn i could have done better" head shake or a "what the hell? that should have been much higher based on the jumps I landed" head shake.
 
I don't think Sarah doesn't understand the scores, I think she's disappointed with herself because she knows she can skate better than that and has, even earlier in the season at Lombardia.
 
At this point, I don't know what type of program would be right for Sarah. She has no personality on the ice.
I read something about how she really loves classical music but her mother thought she should try this to stretch herself. I say mom should recuse herself and Sarah should get a nice powerful classical piece that can help do some of the work for her until she's developed her presentation.
 
As I recall she kept her jacket on during the warm up. Maybe she doesn't like her dress either.
I'm impressed how those voluminous sleeves squash down under the jacket.

As for costume/music choice - the first time I saw Josefin Taljegard's Joker costume and then program I was so full of WTF - but in that case her performance won me over. It wasn't until much later that I saw the film and both costume and choreography made so much sense.

Everhardt is not Taljegard

Didn't she try Firebird? That's a powerful piece and while she didn't lay an egg, it really didn't go anywhere.

She might do well with Chopin, something with gravitas.
 
On the monitor. I was flying from London. At least I was in business but I was embarrassed any time anyone walked by.
Hahaha, business needs to have apple vr headsets to watch that. Although I could only imagine what other people would be watching if they had those. lol
 
Sarah's costume would be much better if she had 1890 or 1898 sleeves rather than 1895 sleeves -

It would be better if it didn't combine light blue lace, yellow frills down the center like it's a 1970s tuxedo shirt, a green sash, and a pink and yellow skirt. :) but yes, smaller sleeves would likely help with jump rotations. Can't say whether that would be authentic to the movie because I haven't seen it.
 
But it was better than this.
Honestly, she gave NOTHING in Firebird and I thought that from the start. Nothing. At least she's making small attempts this year. Still not anywhere near elite level.

Malinina also did the same thing in 1998 looking down the entire short program.
 
But it was better than this.
Maybe she can see what a choreographer like Lori can do for her? I think this is much less to do with the actual programs but how the skater is skating the programs. She needs someone to show her the way.
