2025 Skate Canada Womens FS PBP - I Screamed a Scream

[slicekw]

Oh hell…..I wasn’t going to, but -
Who dressed this young woman in a dress that is tailored for someone 2 inches taller? This is Kimmie-level bad dropped waist.
I like her commitment to the skate. Some lovely jumps. Get her away from Joanne!

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

Uliana getting the job done and proving she deserved the host pick spot! Not much beyond the jumps but to be expected for a McLeod skater. Hopefully she can get away from Joanne soon

Replacing the 3T with a 3Lz would give her 1.7 additional (1.77 with the bonus).

1.87 actually.

But she also needs to actually get through programs without issues, and if she can't do that then the extra points don't mean much.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Home run!!!! Apologies for the baseball interruption

Uliana Shiryaeva
Rank after SP: 11
Coach: Joanne McLeod
Music: La terre vue du ciel by Armand Amar

3Lz+3T
3F
3Lo
2A
Flying Sit Spin 3
Choreo Sequence
3Fq+1Eu+3Sq
3Lz+2T
2A - no speed/flow on landing
Step Sequence 2
Change Foot Combo Spin 2 (2V after review)
Flying Change Foot Combo Spin 4

Pretty good technical content, but needing to clean up the levels on the spins, and steps, and do something about the choreography sequence because it has to be pretty bad to be in the negative.

108.70 = 2nd Place
161.98 = 2nd Place

 

[Matryeshka]

McLeod must secretly hate Uliana. That is the only explanation for...that.

 

[tlk]

HOME RUN!!! (this is a bird, and it's blue, so pretend it's a Blue Jay.)

3 run HR from Bo Bichette, 3-0 Blue Jays in the 3rd!

 

[Rukia]

Joanne taking over the shoutouts should be shown to every prospective student like these are the vibes you are signing up for

 

[tony]

McLeod is insufferable.

 

[Lilia A]

Joanne maybe shut up sometimes.

 

[thvu]

Lol, McLeod really does go on...

 

[kwanfan1818]

Shiryaeva reminds me of everything I disliked about Slutskaya's skating.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Joanne maybe shut up sometimes.

Even better, maybe stop coaching.

 

[thvu]

Shiryaeva reminds me of everything I disliked about Slutskaya's skating.

That has to be a really long list.

 

[genevieve]

Yet we have Seniuk actually skating to Stranger Things and she won't interpret it at all!

this costume does not say Stranger Things

ETA oof, neither does this dirgeful arrangement.

 

[kwanfan1818]

That has to be a really long list.

I put movement quality into one big bucket, which helps.

Uliana is giving her monosyllabic answers and not looking at her, like you do with the creepy old dude trying to talk to you while you wait for your Uber.

I'm not fond of programs that start on the ground--seems like a bad omen.

 

[Colonel Green]

This costume has absolutely nothing to do with Stranger Things.

 

[LilJen]

ultraviolet red for Stranger Things? Um, okay.

 

[Private Citizen]

But she also needs to actually get through programs without issues, and if she can't do that then the extra points don't mean much.

OTOH, I don't think Schizas's content is enough for top 10 at Worlds under any circumstances, and it may not be enough to even win her own Nationals at this point.

May as well go for top 10 at Worlds and risk 15th or 20th, v. not even try for top 10 and a second spot. Especially at this point in her career.

 

[Baby Yoda On Skates]

Yikes. All these landings are short.

 

[barbk]

I quite liked that choreo sequence!

 

[Jay42]

Watching Seniuk and all I can think of is there are skaters out there who could do something amazing with this music and it's just not going anywhere.

And now we have voiceovers

 

[Rukia]

every jump looks like hard work i'm exhausted halfway through

 

[genevieve]

OMG who puts a voiceover saying YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST in a skater's program?!?!

I wouldn't want to interpret that either

 

[ilovesalchows]

I want to see her do Ghostbusters so we can get a “there is no Dana only Zool “

 

[Spikefan]

Ok, best voiceover this season.

 

[tony]

She gives young Trusova vibes even though they are probably close to the same age and I actually liked the choreo sequence. Can do without the tinkly piano beginning because why not just go full out weird Stranger Things?

Jump technique is meh.

As rough as everything is, at least she LIKES this program.

 

[LilJen]

Shiryaeva reminds me of everything I disliked about Slutskaya's skating.

And all the Eteri girl style of skating

 

[slicekw]

Seniuk doing the acting before going into Kate Bush was fun. And, well, Kate Bush always reminds me of one of my favorite people ever in my life.
