Kim showing why she is reigning World Bronze medalist with this performance.

A few skaters now building excellent programs only to miss a jump late in the program. Who will be the skater to carry the momentum threw to the end?

128.49 = 2nd Place
194.16 = 2nd Place

Next season: Chock-Bates, Dune, sandworm vs warrior . You heard it here first.

 

[Lilia A]

Argh, almost. So close to a clean program. Poor kid looks exhausted.

 

[Karen-W]

Well, I don't think that TES will hold up for Chaeyeon - the 3t on the 3z+3t is surely getting reviewed. So, KOR is down to 2 spots.

 

[peibeck]

Eh... Kim's skating is pretty but the jumps are tiny.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Chaeyeon competed a lot this year, no? I wonder if she just suffered a bit from peaking a little too soon.

 

[Jay42]

Chaeyeon keeps holding her back I wonder if she tweaked something

 

[tangerine dream]

Pretty solid skate for Chaeyeon although I don't love this style for her. I think she's capable of something more interesting than this.

 

[Sally1214]

And Kim delivers the goods too. The audience is truly getting pumped with these performances. It's exciting!

[Lilia A]

Oof, into 2nd for now. There goes any chance for 3 spots.

 

[Karen-W]

Who is EST #2? Kiibus?

Unclear. Whomever they pick to go to Beijing to secure the 2nd spot is going to have a tough go of it, IMO. None of their good juniors will be old enough for seniors next season.

= ugly

 

[slicekw]

Not too many skaters could pull off this dress.

 

[rfisher]

So, does the comfy blankie stay or does each skater get one? It's kind of ick for each of them to be wrapping themselves in a sweaty blanket.

 

[floridaice]

Kimmy looks determined

 

[Hanna]

Repond's SP dress is so beautiful and then you have this wreck.

Ughh

 

[Jay42]

Not too many skaters could pull off this dress.

Including her

You jinxed her

Let's not pretend like Kimmy is, lol.

 

[Colonel Green]

(((Switzerland)))

 

[overedge]

The Gladiator outfit....no. Just, no.

 

[beckab81]

Kimmy needs top 12 to get Switzerland 2 spots right?

 

[Hanna]

Crowd cheering for a 2a-2t like it's a freaking quad - I love them.

 

[Karen-W]

Oh, dear... Kimmy's trying to give away Switzerland's 2nd spot.

 

[floridaice]

You jinxed her

I do seem to have that talent -- it's my secret power

 

[JoannaLouise]

Oof. Rough start for Kimmy.

 

[LilJen]

Which dress would you chack? Kimmy or Samoldekina?

My large dog is very upset at being left out of husband's arm wrestling practice upstairs.
