2025 Skate Canada Womens SP PBP - Night of the Cheating Edge

[Kateri]

Jeeeez, I'm glad she could get up from that one; I wouldnt.

 

[just tuned in]

Yun -- this looks labored.

 

[tony]

That said about Ahsun, it looks to me like she does not know what to do with her arms AT ALL. She's leaning over so awkwardly even in forwards crossovers and the arms just kinda dangle there throughout most of the program.

Kwan tribute spiral. Yeah I still love the music but the program is weird.

 

[Braulio]

Michelle Kwan

 

[Jay42]

That was a rough fall for Yun but she looks like she got herself back together ok. It's also just nice to see a Korean woman besides Chaeyoung Kim skating to music that's not tinkley piano music

 

[her grace]

Yun

Nice 3z-3t, big fall on 2a, 3f held but not the most aesthetic landing position, she seems bent forward as she’s skating, some work to do on carriage

 

[Debbie S]

Mariia's coach is still listed as Polina Tsurskaia. I think Eteri was standing in, since she was already going to be here with Egadze. At least, I hope she didn't switch to Eteri.

 

[Karen-W]

Yun - can the KSU let these girls wear some color other than neutrals or pastels? Yikes! That 2A fall was dramatic.

So far, the Korean women are really struggling to show any of them really want those two Oly spots.

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

I could have done without Eteri on the big screen.

Yun started so well but that was a very hard fall right in front of where I’m sitting. Really knocked the wind out of her and the program unfortunately.

 

[slicekw]

I just came in from giving stuff out for Trick or Treating and the Wicked Witch of the Bottle Blondes was on my TV.

Then Yun’s fall. OUCH.

 

[peibeck]

Yun: Oh dear this is no Kwan sm-iral. And this dress looks like a Les Miz dress. That axel looked quite painful, right on her hip.

Ahsun Yun
Coach: Hyun Jung Chi, Jinseo Kim
Music: East of Eden by Lee Holdridge

3Lz+3T
2Aq - went up very crooked
Flying Camel Spin 4
3F!
Step Sequence 3
Sit Spin 4
Change Foot Combo Spin 3 (2 after review)

Ahsun seems to have grown quite a bit since last season. Setting the double Axel aside this was a good performance, but wow did that ever go up badly, and she had no chance.

-1.00 = Falls
58.84 = 3rd Place

Mariia's coach is still listed as Polina Tsurskaia. I think Eteri was standing in, since she was already going to be here with Egadze. At least, I hope she didn't switch to Eteri.

I wuzrobbed of seeing Tsurskaya!

 

[Skaterbob]

Michelle Kwan

Including the splat on the double axel!

 

[MacMadame]

Yun: Oh dear this is no Kwan sm-iral. And this dress looks like a Les Miz dress. That axel looked quite painful, right on her hip.

It didn't look all the way around either.

 

[Karen-W]

No, Chris, the results of the GP play NO part in the Korean fed's Olympic selection process!

 

[Sally1214]

Argh .... back from the ball game to see Nakai. Geez .... things are SO tense right now.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Go Ami!

 

[Spikefan]

I was thinking yesterday that I wanted Alysa to ditch Gaga and skate EoE. Will never tire of this.

 

[genevieve]

whee Nakai!

I love this costume & program

 

[MacMadame]

Argh .... back from the ball game to see Nakai. Geez .... things are SO tense right now.

I love her.

And yes, Chris, I will hang onto my hat!

 

[Sally1214]

Aw .... no ....

 

[Jay42]

Ah that was an awkward fall on the 3A. Glad she could muscle out the combo.

 

[Skaterbob]

I don't remember such a long setup for the axel in France.

 

[genevieve]

well shewt

 

[Colonel Green]

I would love to know what percentage of skaters who do this program have ever actually watched La Strada.

 

[Rukia]

axels trying to scare us for halloween

 

[Wyliefan]

That 3A never had a chance.

 

[Braulio]

Trick or trip!

 

[Karen-W]

See - this is why I didn't bet on Ami Nakai in my fantasy skating field this week. Her 3A has never been consistent. And that combo was gutted out. The program and presentation is still rather junior-ish.
