2024 Candian Championships Sr Women's SP - it's -36 outside!

[JoannaLouise]

Generally Evanescence is too OTT for me, but I really liked that program.

Yes, I think it really suits Sara-Maude. She used a similar style of music in her LP last year; I kind of like that she's unapologetically dark and dramatic.

 

[overedge]

That was nice sunny music to hear on a chilly day.

 

[Wyliefan]

Holy combo save, Kaiya!!

 

[Rukia]

Here just in time for Ruiter

oh that combo was way short on the toe loop

 

[honey]

That was not close to rotated unfortunately.

 

[overedge]

Scott Davis, Jeff Langdon, Stephane Yvars, Sebastien Britten.....good times for those of us who watched 80s/90s skating

 

[Habs]

I thought Kaiya was going to go down on that combo.

Everything is just a bit off balance for her.

Kaiya Ruiter - I Want to Dance with Somebody

 

[overedge]

Whyyyyy would anyone do this song as a ballad?!?!

 

[honey]

Don’t think the lutz was rotated either.

 

[pat c]

Whyyyyy would anyone do this song as a ballad?!?!

gratuitous tinkly piano music

who's the artist singing this? anyone know?

 

[Wyliefan]

That girl has got some GRIT!

 

[Rukia]

Don’t think the lutz was rotated either.

I think you are correct

Madeline Schizas - Farucas/Solea Grana

 

[honey]

She has an adorable curly pony tail that I love. And I don’t hate the cover (judge me, I know). But the jumps are not getting there. She has a lot of potential but some work to be done.

 

[Habs]

Scott Davis doesn’t really age.

 

[pat c]

Scott Davis - his spins.......you can almost forgive him that he skated to WSS forever.

 

[overedge]

Scott Davis lookin' good

 

[Wyliefan]

Only a 3-2 for Maddie. But great speed and a strong performance overall.

 

[pat c]

Think it's Maddie's to lose.

 

[Desperado]

The energy doesn’t look quite there for Maddie.

 

[honey]

Kind of tight all around today for Madeline. This program is great for her, but she keeps kind of biffing it. Worlds maybe will be the one? Hopefully?

And I hate to say this, but the choker is accentuating her lack of posture (it makes her shoulders look up really high). She looked better without it.

 

[Habs]

Good job, Maddie.

 

[Rukia]

Schizas just looked off on her jumps the whole time. Still think she's easily the leader.

 

[overedge]

I felt that a lot of the program was all on one body level - upright with armography. Not a comment on how it was performed, I mean the choreography. Partly because of the music, there isn't a lot of horizontal body action in flamenco. Different music would have opened up more possibilities for range of motion IMO.

 

[JoannaLouise]

There must have been some kind of adjustment to Audréanne Foster's score. It was originally 53.22 (just ahead of Shiryaeva), but now it's showing as 51.21.

[honey]

Kaiya was lucky to get away with just a < and a q.

I’d have Dupuis ahead of her I think.

 

[overedge]

Marie-Maude's was the program of the day for me.
