2026 Worlds Womens FS PBP - La Vie En Drone

[Reuven]

Sarah's parents need to send her to theatre camp this summer so she can loosen up a bit

That would certainly help, I think. Gotta reach up to the rafters.

Sarah's parents need to send her to theatre camp this summer so she can loosen up a bit

Today is World Theatre Day - maybe they can get discounted prices if they sign her up before midnight.

 

[Sally1214]

What? No voiceovers by Malinin telling deep stories of his life journey?

It's important to always be grateful for small blessings.

 

[slicekw]

Good job for Sarah and great choice to do Firebird. It should get her a bit of a boost after the tired/burnout warhorse programs.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Her sparring partner will get this in 4 first elements

 

[PRlady]

She is a cool customer. But that was Fireparakeet. I don’t know if she will ever gain the expressiveness for a top-tier skater.

 

[Citlali]

When Sarah's jumps are on they are beautiful!

I don't think she has found the right program, but I'm glad she came back to Firebird sure is more a mild spice chicken than anything but better than what she had.

 

[Firedancer]

This program is better than poor things. Almost clean. But its mostly blank face without intensity

 

[personwhoishere]

Ami's little ritual with her stuffy is so wholesome and sweet

 

[Karen-W]

Hmph. That score doesn't make me happy, but everyone knows I love Sarah. At least she wound up in the top 12 overall though!

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

She sees green trees and red roses?
No, I think these are the stupid fluorescent advertisements on the boards.

 

[Wyliefan]

Darn axel.

 

[Jay42]

Oh man that triple axel just hasn't been working for Ami here at all

 

[slicekw]

Jeez, Nakai’s face and upper body positioning is a serious palate cleanser.

 

[Karen-W]

The 3A deserted Ami once she left Milano.

 

[miffy]

That was a really elegant failed triple axel I guess it's not Ami's week. Hopefully next year, and I also hope she'll have a better programme, this feels a bit more like a blah exhibition to me.

 

[Vagabond]

She is a cool customer. But that was Fireparakeet. I don’t know if she will ever gain the expressiveness for a top-tier skater.

Malinina and Skoniakov need to bring someone in to help their developing skaters work on expression.

 

[Wyliefan]

That was a really elegant failed triple axel

It was. She just sort of floated down onto her knee.

 

[Citlali]

She sees green trees and red roses?
No, I think these are the stupid fluorescent advertisements on the boards.

Don't forget the drones... what a "wonderful" world

 

[genevieve]

I'm so glad I won't have to hear this sticky sweet What a Wonderful World next season

(hopefully no one else gets the bad idea to use it)

 

[PRlady]

That was a really elegant failed triple axel I guess it's not Ami's week. Hopefully next year, and I also hope she'll have a better programme, this feels a bit more like a blah exhibition to me.

She needs a Salome-type grownup program next year.

 

[Jay42]

I honestly think if someone is going to skate to What a Wonderful World they should just skate to Louis Armstrong's version but I also acknowledge that wouldn't fit Ami's vibe at all.

 

[Wyliefan]

Never mind, sweetie, you're still an Olympic bronze medalist! And good job fighting through this.

 

[Karen-W]

I really hope Nakai's team gets her some more mature programs next season. I cannot deal with this treacly, junior-esque styling for her.

 

[slicekw]

I honestly think if someone is going to skate to What a Wonderful World they should just skate to Louis Armstrong's version but I also acknowledge that wouldn't fit Ami's vibe at all.

Yeah, too much pathos. Her vibe is all hope, no sadness.

 

[flyingsit]

I honestly think if someone is going to skate to What a Wonderful World they should just skate to Louis Armstrong's version but I also acknowledge that wouldn't fit Ami's vibe at all.

I think Somewhere Over the Rainbow would fit her just right.

 

[Private Citizen]

Nakai is a beautiful, beautiful skater. But 3A << and a popped lutz won’t move her up.

Someone let out a Mike pike level scream for her layback

 

[Colonel Green]

So probably no World medal to match her Olympic medal this year, but should score respectably enough.

 

[Jay42]

I think Somewhere Over the Rainbow would fit her just right.

Ooooh it really would.

I'm glad Ami fought through, even with the mistakes. I do think that bodes well for her mental game in the future.

 

[Karen-W]

I think Somewhere Over the Rainbow would fit her just right.

I came across the Overture from "The Wizard of Oz" a few years ago and I think, cut right, it would be a really great program for Ami.

ETA - it's actually not the Overture, it's an arrangement performed by the Boston Pops Orchestra, as a tribute to TWoO -
