2023 Nepela Memorial - Women's SP & FS

[Karen-W]

Chaeyeon - black torso that ombres into a dark green skirt that eventually ombres into a minty/aqua at the hem; minty/aqua is also stoned in a cross on the front of the bodice. Sleeves are full length into black gloves with the upper part sheer black, same sheer black on the lower front torso on either side of the stoning; back is open.

Weird stumble on nothing.

Music is heavy, dramatic - maybe swallows her a bit?

I was thinking the same.

 

[PRlady]

I love her intensity and musicality and even her dress. Definitely my favorite Korean lady, hope she wins.

[PRlady]

I think she and Kurakova should skate a duet to Angels-and Demons.

Glad to see she’s a normal smiley girl in the K&C, saves the drama for the performance.

Overall, I really enjoy Chaeyeon Kim. She could work on having more commitment to some of her movement and expression but she has a nice overall musicality and the program held my interest.

 

[Private Citizen]

Schizas still seems quite light on base value / tech content, repeating only toe and loop and doing two of the three combos before the midway point. She could try to use the double axel combination rules to her advantage. I’d ditch 2A+3T and put in 3Lz+2A if she can swing it. Other option would be solo 3Lz and adding 2A to the end of her solo 3Lo.

She’s going to struggle with this base value when so many of the top women repeat lutz and flip and have two combos in the second half.
