I am in Oberstdorf, just got done with Silver ladies II freestyle. Skated a really good beginning half of the program & then panicked & altitude died 😂🙈. Still, nice to skate that well & be on time with the music even if it was just for part of the program. Will eventually make my way to a full...

Part of Midori Ito’s artistic program run through in practice 😀https://www.instagram.com/reel/CsTPUJZM3q9/?igshid=MTIyMzRjYmRlZg==

Agreed, she's very good with names the vast majority of the time. Arena announcer and the Kay-Oh-ri is the worst, but even PJ said Kay-ori at one point tonight. Arena announcers being a bad influence here at the end of a long day of skating :lol: Also, some names are prone to being...

It the Kay that's really jarring to me. KaOri vs Kaori is not that bad to my untrained ear. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH2Nsytq6bw

Am blaming the jump misses on her shock at having her name butchered like that. When was the last singles repeat FISU champ?

Ka-ori not Kay-ori :lynch:

Mai's consistently producing clean programs in high pressure situations this season. And something about her spirals is very Kwan-like :D

I somehow never noticed Yelim's super high right arm on jump takeoffs until now? I'd prefer different music for her, too, but that was a masterclass on how to stay calm under pressure. And her spinning speed is just 🤘 eta: Not her fault, but middle gap in crown is not ideal. Get Dabin to help...

Poor Belgians, doomed to always be confused or forgotten, despite all the chocolate, beer and waffle contribution. And Loena!

Rion's speed and flow is so effortless. I love the program, mistakes and all!

Dabin's flying camel entry covers so much ice 💕 She also landed more jumps than basically last group combined :lol:, despite that weird high kick in her flip and lutz. Really light across the ice and some nice moments. eta: Demonstrating proper crown positioning in the KnC 👑

Think it's all about how you transliterate into English. ch is the accurate pronunciation. Kučvaļska

:wall: about that lunge into a fall when she tried to hold onto her second 3toe, but this still one of the better outings from Angelina. Please use it to build the rest of the season. Really enjoyed the in-betweens and choreo. eta: Top 10 finish!

Kucvalska to save the group, like it's 2016 Euros :cheer:

I hoped it would be a reasonably well skated group. I know some of them exceeded expectations in the short. But last two skates were definitely disastrous. Gozhva trying her best to get us back on track
