[MsZem]

I just love everything about Alysa. And her skating.

[Jammers]

Alysa just needs to stay close to win a medal.

 

[canbelto]

Gorgeous dress on Isabeau.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

That first 3F was a little weird in the air. So glad she landed it.

 

[Braulio]

Isabeau 3flip-3toe looked great, 2axel nice flow out of it

 

[Wyliefan]

Not as expressive as usual, but she was probably worried about the jumps. Now she can let loose.

 

[tony]

I may not love this music as much but this is the most complete program of all the US women, and she's BY FAR the best skater in skating skills in the US IMO. Presentation is also top-notch and I can't really diss composition.

Give this all the PCS.

 

[Matryeshka]

Zooby-zooby-zoo to the final group, Isabeau!!! Whatever SS Petrosian got, Isabeau should get at least double that.

 

[JoannaLouise]

This is such a charming program

 

[Wyliefan]

Crowd is going happy clappy!

 

[floridaice]

Yes - the neckline is square rather than the boatneck that the original had.

Found a photo of her at Lombardia -- it might be the that dress, with the top slightly re-worked

No, she's worn the same one for two years. I don't know that she ever had a new SP?

Here she is at Lombardia -- the SP that she dumped.

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I really love Isabeau's retro-ness.

 

[slicekw]

Always. But ALWAYS. Watch out for that 3rd American girl. This advice applies to real life, too.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Zooby-zooby-zoo to the final group, Isabeau!!! Whatever SS Petrosian got, Isabeau should get at least double that.

And interpretation!

 

[canbelto]

Wow Isabeau was gorgeous!!!

Isabeau Levito
Coach: Y. Kuznetsova, O.Japaridze, S. Kuznetsov
Music: Almost in Your Arms, Zou Bisou Bisou

3F+3T
2A
Flying Camel Spin 4
3Loq
Step Sequence 3
Change Foot Combo Spin 4
Layback Spin 4

Lovely performance, and one of the best combinations we've seen from her.

SP: 70.84 = 5th Place

 

[Private Citizen]

Combo looked decent for Levito, but being reviewed along with 3Lo. Tech only 38 :/. If this goes behind Petrosian, I think I'm done.

 

[Bunny Hop]

Levito - This might be my favourite short program this year. THe piked jump take-offs are annoying but other than that and a couple of very minor bobbles on steps that was exquisite.

 

[miffy]

Yay well done Alyssa & Isabeau

Random but does Isabeau remind anyone else of Minerva, facially?

 

[Rob]

Lovely Isabeau!

 

[MacMadame]

No, she's worn the same one for two years. I don't know that she ever had a new SP?

She started the season with a new SP but one of the singers of it is thought to have killed his ex in a gruesome way so she ditched it.

 

[Aussie Willy]

Isabeau brought it too. What a lovely program.

 

[Bill Trenary]

Combo looked decent for Levito, but being reviewed along with 3Lo. Tech only 38 :/. If this goes behind Petrosian, I think I'm done.

Me too...I will vomit.

 

[Citlali]

Isabeau

 

[Braulio]

This will put maybe Isabeau behind Adelia by a slim margin, though presentation she should beat the russian by a thousand miles

 

[Karen-W]

Absolutely lovely from Isabeau but that TES is dropping already and I don't think she's going to beat Petrosian, dammit.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

So thankful that Isabeau is bringing some true turn out, pointed toes, finished extension, and port de bras in combination with great glide and knee bend. It’s sort of a forgotten art to have that stylistic approach to skating.

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

I never tire of watching Isabeau. She epitomizes everything I love and fell in love about figure skating (minus her jump technique). Pure class, sophistication, beauty and a throwback ethereal quality!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

She started the season with a new SP but one of the singers of it is thought to have killed his ex in a gruesome way so she ditched it.

I completely wiped that from my memory, although i do remember the conversation. But he defs was linked to the death of a 14 year old girl, not his ex.
