What’s the second piece of music in the RD? The sound cut out after “Can't Get You Out of My Head”…
 
Kailani Craine debuted her SP to "Heart of Glass" (Crabtree Remix with Blondie & Philip Glass) - link to watch a fan cam filmed in Anaheim, CA at the end of July: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrRW0QXOpNM
She won the SP (62.87), landing 3Lz, 3Lo+3Lo & 2A cleanly, was 5th in the FS (94.49), and finished 4th overall (157.36).
Thanks Sylvia. Do you also have her TES score handy? Just wondering if she will be able to meet the TES mins for the Olympics if she skated like this at Nebelhorn.

3loop3loop sounds great - but whether she can get it called fully rotated when it counts the most is really the luck of the draw.

Does Australia Federation require the achievement of the minimum TES also at Nebelhorn (rather than, as per ISU, in any international competitions in 2019/20, 2020/21 or 2021/22 seasons) as extra requirement to go to Olympics?

Thinking about it, it wouldn't be an extremely harsh extra-requirement given that if she doesn't reach the Olympic minimum TES (23/40) at Nebelhorn, it would be quite unlikely that she would qualify there (unless the whole event would be a splat-fest).

Why on earth would they? She could get the minimum TES to qualify for the Olympics at any ISU competition just like any other skater, if she didn't have them already, which IIRC she does (certainly she has the SP TES from Worlds in March, where she scored 30.24 TES).

I was only wondering because in the post I was replying to, Marco was wondering if she will be able to meet the TES mins for the Olympics if she skated like this at Nebelhorn.
So I wondered if there was a specific Australian requirement given that she already has the ISU Olympic minimums.
 
Some countries do require additional achievements on top of what the ISU or IOC demands in minimum TES. I recall the unhappy history of Alexander Majorov from Sweden who qualified Sweden for the OG 2018 at Nebelhorn, but Sweden gave it back because they had demanded he acquire a rather high points total at minimum before he was allowed to go to the OG. He did not succeed because it was much higher than his personal best. Despite him reaching whatever minimum TES was needed according to the rules of the competition.
 
Craine's TES was 34.99 in SP & 40.65 in FS at Glacier Falls which does not count for ISU minimums (23 & 40 are the TES minimums for 2022 Olympics/4CC/Euros) - remember that Worlds minimums are much higher: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...s-for-2022-olympics-isu-championships.108361/
Thanks Sylvia.

Only 5 points higher in TES in the free when she could do 4 more jumping passes than the short including 2 more combos. Well she still has some work to do before Nebelhorn.
 

The names of Maria Chernyshova / Harley Windsor appeared at a Team Moser competition participant list in Moscow.
Apparently, some folk are going a bit crazy on the Twitter link, thinking that Harley and his new partner are competing for Russia, and that they wouldn't stand a chance of making any international teams because of the depth of talent in that country.

Surely, Windsor still skates for Australia.
 
Windsor and his new partner third of three pairs at Mozer competition SP. 46 pt. something - you can find the results here:
From the detailed TES and PCS breakdown, it looks like they aborted the split triple twist and missed the sbs triple salchows.

 
I looked at the detailed breakdown for the new Australian pair. Some heavy hitting content, which is great to see. Now they just need to get some competition mileage under their belts to boost their GOE.

I can't wait to see Hektor and Anastasia compete at the ISU JPG in Russia next month as well.
