FSU Watch Party Saturday 4/4 - 1995 Worlds ladies SP [12pm CDT / 7pm CET]

[her grace]

Aw, Rechino

good use of arms, more finished than the other skaters, jumps not as strong

oh, and a gun to her head

 

[aliceanne]

The Pole’s music hurts my ears - had to take out the ear buds.

 

[her grace]

Rechino deserved marks at least in the 5s for Presentation. C'mon judges.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Czako's dress is quite the costume

 

[her grace]

Czako

I have no words

 

[Erin]

Czako

I have no words

I loved it!

 

[skateycat]

Here Comes Freakin’ Liashenko!

 

[her grace]

Liashenko

Jumps are the way I remember them, always a struggle for her. Seems to have nice speed

 

[aliceanne]

Liashenko has Butyrskaya jumps- stiff legs and wide swing of the free leg upon exit

 

[skateycat]

The neckline on her dress is more than plunging, it is epic.

 

[skateycat]

Elena’s coach is

 

[aliceanne]

Olga! Yay!

 

[tony]

Czako’s program is one of my favorites. She had an absolutely terrible LP the next season before really hitting her stride in the choreography department.

 

[aliceanne]

Waxel

 

[skipaway]

Not sure how that costume fits with Cabaret

 

[aliceanne]

Cabaret would be a good number for Markova

 

[Kateri]

Mojca's batwing fringe atrocity!

 

[Kateri]

Why do all 3 Japanese girls here have the exact same haircut and outfit? They all look gorgeous, but it's weird.

 

[skipaway]

Odd musical choice for Italian lady.

 

[skateycat]

Malcolm Mclaren’s take on the Blue Danube? Trippy and discordant, so why the floofy white dress?

 

[jennysk8oboe]

loved Ruh!

 

[Kateri]

Malcolm Mclaren’s take on the Blue Danube? Trippy and discordant, so why the floofy white dress?

David Lynch's Blue Danube.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Kwan interview while Bombardieri is waiting for scores

 

[her grace]

Ruh is so watchable. Great spins and nice musicality.

 

[her grace]

Interesting that the commentator says "gold medal gone" after Szewckenko's turn-out on the combo. She wasn't the favorite for gold here anyway only having finished 4th at Euros, not to mention the 4CC skaters.

 

[her grace]

Lang

High jumps. Too bad the last one collapsed. Expression kinda reminds me of Mykayla Skinner.

More than one German lady at worlds. What great times for Germany.

 

[Kateri]

omg INCREDIBLY tiny Julia Lautowa!

 

[her grace]

Lautowa

Russian export. I didn't know that.

Struggled on the jumps. Appropriate program for 13. I'm glad that modern age limits keep these youngsters in juniors for two seasons rather than at Sr. Worlds, though.

 

[her grace]

Leray

Carman Miranda ruffles on the sleeves. Very expressive. Too bad about the 2a.

 

[aliceanne]

That was a loooong set-up for that failed axel she must be unsure of that jump. Fun program though. (Leray)
