JGP Bangkok - Women SP & FS

[Karen-W]

Tong - pretty dress in shades of purple. Screechy violin music is doing her no favors. Some of these jumps are definitely wobbly on the landings and are going to be scrutinized by the tech panel. She's going to drop like a rock in the overall standings.

 

[her grace]

Tong

These jumps look tight. Eventually, she'll want to integrate her jumps more into her program--right now it's very clear when she's setting up for a jump. Nice Biellman position in her spin. Couple falls right at end of program. A learning skate for her.

 

[Frau Muller]

And the classical run is ending - USA coming …but I wish Annika Chao well!

 

[Karen-W]

Chao - lovely grape-colored, tank-top style dress with tons of sparkles. Eeesh - the back end of the 3f+3t was rough - two-footed. Good 3lo, but the 3s was sketch on the landing, nice 3z though! Awww, down on the 3z that was supposed to be in combo. Really mixed bag on her jumps, and she's also going to drop in the overall standings. No medal for Annika today.

 

[Wyliefan]

And we finally get to see Annika skate. Goodness, she has legs for days! She moves nicely, but the jumps are shaky -- I don't know if this is going to be enough to keep her on the podium.

 

[Frau Muller]

ANNIKA CHAO so beautiful…esp the spirals! I can pardon the screechy-voiced music!

 

[her grace]

Chao

Ballad, but I'll take it over yet another classical piece. She has a nice long-limbed elegance and carries herself well. Jumps had some problems (step-outs, underrotations and fall). Strong PCS-day, not her best technical performance.

 

[Sylvia]

Annika Chao was 9th at Junior Nationals (she's re-using her Adele FS; competed Novice last season) and 2nd in the JGP selection competition in Milwaukee that earned her this JGP spot. Very respectable showing for her junior international debut at 13!

ETA: 105.11 4th in FS, 164.04 3rd overall with 2 to go.

 

[Holy Headband]

I wonder if she might be willing to consider ice dance? I'm not saying she has no future in singles (I hate when people suggest that skaters switch to ice dance just because they've seen them have one shaky performance), but her figure would look striking in ice dance and she seems to have a bit of diva in her.

 

[Frau Muller]

Korean with classical music AND…hair accessory!

 

[Sylvia]

Yuseong Kim (Yujae's twin sister) will attempt 3A. ETA: And she lands it, like she did in her FS in the Korean JGP selection comp.!

She's maybe a bit tall for dance.

 

[Wyliefan]

Wow. Yuseong is killing it!

 

[her grace]

Kim

3a, 3f-3t. Would love to see her extend and straighten her free leg when she lands her jumps. Nice clean performance.

ETA: ooh, fun sibling rivalry tales!

 

[Wyliefan]

That 3a was beautiful -- she just tossed it off like it was no big deal!

 

[Karen-W]

Yuseong - wow - what a beautiful dress! 3a! Girl wants to win. Hmmm... I question the rotation on the 3t of her 3f+3t combo. Well, actually, I question whether or not these jumps make it to seniors. Nice spins. Absolutely nothing about her skating that sets her apart from the rest of her compatriots.

 

[Frau Muller]

MS KIM OF SOUTH KOREA!!!

A thing of beauty is a joy forever! A 3axel plus plus.

And the video almost froze…shshsh.

 

[ptvvibezz]

Didn't Jenny Kirk skate to this in the early aughts or am I making that up

 

[Wyliefan]

Not a big fan of neon pink underwear under a see-through skirt for a junior (well, for anyone, but especially a junior). What was Ami's team thinking?

 

[her grace]

Nakai

poorly-performed 2a that probably meant to be a 3a, is this Mandy Moore?, now that's a blast from the past Landing her jumps neatly now that she got the axel out of the way. Much stronger basics than the Koreans. Looks like she lost an element (X box in tracker), but I missed what it was.

Yeah, I didn't want to make too many snarky remarks, so I didn't comment, but another underfed 14-year-old who can't rotate triples jumping a 3A doesn't really impress me much at this point.

Nakai is a much nicer skater, but that second 2A just buried her. A valuable experience for her for the future. You have to keep track of these things as you go!

 

[Karen-W]

Ami - messy-as-hell 2a instead of a 3a - that will probably give the gold to Yuseong. Eeek - she forgot that she'd already done two 2As and got no points for that 3rd one. She might have enough of a lead and a big enough PCS bump to squeak out the win, but she doesn't really deserve to.

3rd 2A - one at the start, then one in sequence, so the solo 2A doesn't count.

 

[Holy Headband]

Sorry, I meant the second single 2A.

 

[Frau Muller]

Well done, Ami Nakai!
- - (two great hair accessories medal!)

 

[Wyliefan]

Ami is 2nd in the free, but wins by less than a point.

 

[her grace]

I'm okay with this result as Kim has more work to do on components (scores notwithstanding). Excellent skates from all of the medalists!

 

[Frau Muller]

Thank the ISU filming crew for a great transmission!

 

[SkateFanBerlin]

Chao had a good result here. Worried about her jump technique. She rotates fast, but doesn`t start until the top of the jump. Need to fix ASAP.
