Just a quick report about the event.

Overall it was a really good event. The Advanced Novice Ladies freeskates today was very exciting with for this level a really high standard. It was great to see so many skaters going for 2 axels. Not only going for them but doing them very well. And nice to see some triples too. This does bode well for the forthcoming Juniors.

After the event there was a gala with some of the top skaters from the event as well as guest skaters. Misha Ge also did a performance after flying in this morning after a 15 hour flight. He did no jumps and spins but presented a beautiful program. Even seeing it in practice was something special. And nice guy to boot.

 

[Foolhardy Ham Lint]

That little one from TPE sounds like one to watch. Seven triple jump attempts in her free skate, no less!

Interesting that some of the Advanced Novice ladies will be competing in the Junior Level next month at the Hollins Trophy in Sydney, too. I wonder if they are doing that to qualify for international competition selection.

I've edited in the time stamps to watch Tzu-Han TING's Adv. Novice Ladies SP and FS performances in post #6 above. She will be old enough to make her junior international debut for TPE in 2019/20. She skated even better at the TPE national team selection competition last month as a junior: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...pei-nationals-july-27-28.104165/#post-5580138

Thanks for your report. Misha Ge also skated to "Break My Heart Again" by Finneas (O'Connell) in New York City earlier this month and the link to watch a fan cam of this lovely program is posted (in bold) here: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...shows-2019-edition.105447/page-2#post-5581905

Just saw that Tzu-Han TING's Adv. Novice programs from the official stream have been uploaded to YT:

SP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcK8iwkPsG8
FS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGu5qgbD8Cs

If anyone can ID her music, please post.

 

[ioana]

Tzu-Han's LP is a medley from the Finding Neverland soundtrack (Another Bear, Impossible Opening, Piano variation in Blue) and her SP is the soundtrack to Corpse Bride (at least according to my Shazam). She has tons of potential based on these programs .

 

[Sylvia]

Thanks so much, @ioana!

@Aussie Willy, can you post the link to the new official results page for this competition when you get a chance? TIA!

 

[Aussie Willy]

Thanks - I will have to find it. Let me shoot off an email.
