This competition is really burning the candle at both ends.

Stars of Tomorrow with NO one in attendance. C'mon USFS just give away tickets to schools etc.. get some people in the stands.

Absolutely. This would be a great field trip.

this is a bit early in the morning for school kids too lol

Shao

3s-3r loop under, 3f, 2a so jump, jump, jump. Delicate movement, a lot of arms in steps, nice spins

 

[Carolla5501]

Well that's another whole issue... but USFS really seems to be determined to make sure fans aren't there

 

[her grace]

Agosto saying a lot of green for her elements. I wish he’d let us know whether the under was called, but maybe under rotations aren’t part of the official narrative

 

[her grace]

Coats

3t-2.5 toe fall (legs loose in air), 3f, skating with spark, some good fundamentals to build on

 

[Rukia]

bless these early skaters for skating to some upbeat stuff cause it's i'm so eepy

 

[floridaice]

Love the color of Kaya's dress!

 

[Flip Jump]

Who did Gracie say is Kaya’s mother? Someone who is a 3 time Olympian

 

[her grace]

Tiernan

3t-3t big jumps, second was a little shaky on landing, 3f, 2a, nice jump technique with good height, she could put more belief into how she interprets this style of choreography (or perhaps choose something easier to interpret)

 

[Wyliefan]

Per Gracie, spiral sequences were a lot tougher than they looked.

 

[her grace]

Wilkins

3z turns 2t fall, 3f perhaps a bit short, has some nice deep edges, best basics so far

 

[Lizziebeth]

Annabelle was very enjoyable, too bad about the fall.

 

[Rukia]

Per Gracie, spiral sequences were a lot tougher than they looked.

so true they're terrible

Looking at the coaches at Ice Works, it appears to be Mojca Kopac-Tiernan who represented Slovenia

Platonova

3t two foot-2t, 3f two-footed and under, not her day

 

[floridaice]

Is the sound messing up again, or was it just that song?

 

[her grace]

Choreographers, all 3 jumps at beginning and all 3 spins at end is not the most interesting program construction

 

[Rukia]

Is the sound messing up again, or was it just that song?

it's their sound. It started out fine, but I heard them adjusting their mics then it messed up again so idk

also i wouldn't expect them to even attempt to fix this until an ice make or between events

 

[her grace]

Kim

Two different colored gloves, fun look, 3s-3t (maybe slight two foot on toe), 2a, good flexibility showcased in spins, 3f, energetic skate

 

[floridaice]

Hanna Kim!

 

[her grace]

Hochstein shoutout! (Kim’s choreographer)

 

[her grace]

“Compared to junior men, we’re seeing better skating.” — Gold. Ouch, but true.

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh come on, Gracie, you can't tease us by talking about a series of events unfolding and leaving it there.

 

[her grace]

Iwase and Lautowa-Peguero are the two youngest athletes here and will still be too young for JGP next season.
