Not impressed with Kam/O'Shea.

Not a great runthrough

I see a clip titled "last training before Worlds" where she steps on the ice with her guards on (and promptly falls). Happens to everyone who skates at one point or another.

Grassl skated his FS run-through and I just noped right on out of paying attention. Memola's skating through some of the jumps, landing others...

He's practising his lip-synch to the lyrics though. Priorities.

OMG - MetBeru ditched their jazzercize SP for their beach vibes SP from last season!

It’s a pre Easter miracle!

Lovrencic’s flow into her jumps and her program really stand out

 

[Karen-W]

So, it would seem that Shaidorov, Brown & Malinin are skipping this practice. Hmph.

 

[BaileyCatts]

Almost every team is resharing my videos on Instagram. That’s nice!

Oh goodie, we've reached the point of the day where a know-it-all fan behind me is explaining 6 minute warmups and that skaters need "to move out of each other's way" to the lady next to her... who looks like she'd love to drive nails into her ears.

Might be in Norwood, if allowed...

i got to listen to 2 people argue about why one wouldn't wear the jacket the other one brought and fine she just wouldn't bring his next time and save herself the trouble and i'm not sure why this needed to be litigated at top volume but i guess it did

I hear Dave Lease shed a single tear on hearing that moniker.

 

[skatfan]

I forgot Kaori is a blond

I’m afraid I don’t understand what I ever did wrong

In a bathroom in France? he’s posting again on his Patreon

Really, I dare you to turn around and ask the know-it-all to explain something really complicated - like how the Olympic spots are allocated. If you don't have it memorized like me, then open up Jackie Wong's primer & be sure to correct her every time she gets something wrong, lol.

 

[Karen-W]

Torgy FS run-through... looking solid so far... Is @Rukia watching this on her phone from the main rink?

ETA - also... Raf is here with Torgy, not Brandon. This better not jinx him!

 

[peibeck]

Kaori a full run through of her SP. Exquisite despite the tango music.

Better yet... I'll see if she could explain this:

I understand only Selevko and Torgashev came from the last group?

lol i ended up leaving to get some food because i was starving so i watched it from my hotel room like a regular person

 

[Debbie S]

Correct. Perhaps that means the others will show up for the late practice tonight at the main arena.

 

[peibeck]

I think Chiba's "Last Dance" is even more cheese-tacular live. And not in a good way. She's a great skater, but I'm not feeling this program.

 

[Lanie]

@Rukia I saw Torgy outside the arena and thought of you

Finally made it to practices!

 

[skatfan]

Wakaba is still a queen!

 

[peibeck]

Higuchi's presence on the ice is amazing (to me). She doesn't emote to the rafters, but there's a gravity of intention in each movement that's compelling.

Oh course he is. Attention whores gotta attention whore.

It looks like when I attempt a bracket. I’m a fat 42 year old who never skated as a kid

 

[peibeck]

Gubanova skated her SP run thru like she has zero f***s to give about being here.
