[HaNguyen]

It really is too bad Italy doesn’t have 2 women spots. Anna and Lara both have programs that I like and would love to see at the Olympics.

 

[HaNguyen]

Hmm. I just realized that there is no tech tracker when I wanted to check the TES for Ava.

 

[Karen-W]

Hmm. I just realized that there is no tech tracker when I wanted to check the TES for Ava.

If you go into the Sportity app there are live results with the elements.

Ava's jumps - 3z+2t, 2a, 3f

ETA - 27.87 TES, 27.93 PCS = 55.80 - into 4th

 

[Wyliefan]

Live results here: https://www.kraso.sk/wp-content/uploads/sutaze/2025_2026/MON25/SEG003.htm

Looks like Lara and Anna were very close in score; Anna had slightly higher TES, but Lara took it on PCS.

 

[Karen-W]

Ekzarkhova has WD, so there will be only 4 warm-up groups for the FS.

That was my main gripe last season.. I know.

Can’t wait to see their programs. Maybe they’re on YouTube already. Sucks about Ava.

Not a great skate for Elyce either. She looks very slow compared to the Italians, Ava Marie, and Chaeyeon.

3z+2t, waxel - called 1a <<, FCSp4, 3f, StSq3, CCoSp2, LSp2

This should go behind Ava Marie, for sure, IMO.

What I’m thinking about Ava she knows who she is, from that Beth Hart song to Raye she knows her wheelhouse and what works for her!

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Are we thinking Ava would be around 59/60 with the spin?

 

[Karen-W]

Schild's costume is one of the most unflattering costumes I've seen in a while. Just terrible. No, I can't describe it properly. Rough opening and her posture & general skating skills are so ugly - and it all seems magnified by this costume choice.

3z+3t - hand down on the 3t, 2a, FCSp3, 3Lo, CCoSp4, StSq3, LSp4
TES - 32.74
PCS - 26.27

[Karen-W]

Well, Nepela is clearly all about Italy's women today.

Joos - 3z+3t, 2a, FCSp4, (neg GOE), 3f, StSq2, CCoSp4, LSp1 (neg GOE)
TES - 33.65
PCS - 26.20
Total - 59.85 - edges Schild for 3rd for now

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Is everyone having fun at the Italian nationals here?

 

[Skaterbob]

Are we thinking Ava would be around 59/60 with the spin?

I would think more like 58 because her spins didn't really sing today in general.

 

[danafan]

Great score for Dupuis. Did she try the triple axel?

I get that Starr loves the song, but it's not a great choice for someone who appears at times to be skating in slow motion. Sigh. And not much connection to the music.

 

[Karen-W]

Starr - best of the American women today, but slow as molasses over the ice.

Dang over at Nebelhorn there are three out of the top five at worlds there. A bit unbalanced.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I watched Ava’s short program for a second time I have to say it’s quite interesting and quite good. I really like her skating.

Having watch that combination spin two times now what was wrong with it that made invalid? I can’t tell.
