[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I can’t wait to watch Annika.

And then SJVF and EN who will compete in the senior portion.

 

[maureenfarone]

Peacock commentary by Ben Agosto and Gracie Gold!

Sorry I meant to put this in the Jr. Pairs SP thread. I actually do like Ben and Gracie and would be happy to have them in the Jr. Women's SP also.

 

[ChillSkate]

I'm loving Gracie & Ben, I hope we get more of them!

I always hoped Ben would come back to commentate on NBC - I enjoyed the few events that he, Johnny, and Terry did together.

 

[floridaice]

Gracie looks great and Ben is as cute as ever!

 

[her grace]

Vajda

I like her costume, 3z-2t could use more flow out, Stepped through her axel attempt, 2r, emerging presentation

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Vajda

I like her costume, 3z-2t could use more flow out, Stepped through her axel attempt, 2r, emerging presentation

Did this already start? I can’t pull away from heated rivalry videos, and especially Francois Arnaud.

Oh my goodness.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

OK now I’m watching here, but I must say I’m so tuned in to heated rivalry photos and videos right now that that almost takes precedent.

 

[her grace]

Leung

Fall on 3z so no combo, 2r okay, nice split leap, 2a

 

[her grace]

Did this already start? I can’t pull away from heated rivalry videos, and especially Francois Arnaud.

Oh my goodness.

Life is full of tough choices

 

[floridaice]

Sean!!

 

[floridaice]

Nice performance from Deborah Liu -- she'll be fun to watch in the future. Really like her outfit too.

 

[her grace]

Liu, D

3t-3t, 3r turns out, 2a nice, sparks of personality, little imbalance on ending pose

 

[jennysk8oboe]

Chong reminds me of a young Karen Kwan. Does anyone else see that?

 

[her grace]

Chong

3t-3t rotation looked okay, 3r, 2a with good flow out, skating big

 

[her grace]

Chong reminds me of a young Karen Kwan. Does anyone else see that?

Yes, there’s a nice ease to her movement and a long, clean, look

 

[her grace]

Wilkins

3t-3t fall, 1r pop, 2a with strong exiting edge

 

[floridaice]

I'd like to see Wilkin's program without the mistakes.

 

[ChillSkate]

The neon yellow gloves are really distracting

 

[floridaice]

Not interested in what her coach is saying at all

 

[floridaice]

Mia is all arms and legs -- growth spurt?

 

[her grace]

Iwase

3r, 1t pop turned forward and then fell, she looked very nervous, 2a with hitchy landing

 

[ChillSkate]

Liu & Chong were the highlights of the first group

 

[floridaice]

Great skate for Hannah

 

[floridaice]

Cleo's dress has it all -- ruffles/rosettes, sparkles, ragged bits on the bottom of the skirt and end of the bell sleeves. And, it's PURPLE.

 

[her grace]

Park

2a nice, 3s-3t but both looked short, 3r also looked short, costume has a lost of wispy fabric on sleeves which lends a dramatic flair in steps and spins

 

[Karen-W]

Cleo's dress has it all -- ruffles/rosettes, sparkles, ragged bits on the bottom of the skirt and end of the bell sleeves. And, it's PURPLE.

I feel that quartz would have approved of this dress.

 

[her grace]

Agosto quoting Princess Bride.

 

[bladesofgorey]

really enjoying Ben and Gracie's unobtrusive but engaging commentary.

 

[ChillSkate]

I'm mostly enjoying these interviews and produced bits with skaters during the ice resurface break. So much better than when they used to blindfold skaters and ask them what they were sticking their hands in or asked skaters to guess Randy's favorite food.
