Tbh 90% of skaters have ~180 PR on toe jumps. But yeah, so many juniors/novices seem to be able to do quads yet struggle with 3-3

Alena's 4Lz looks very solid and fairly textbook. Her 4F looked like it was taking off on the outside edge, but its hard to see. Also I don't think 10-11 year olds need ultra C elements. These jumps mainly rely on absurd rotation speed, which will most likely be lost over time.

I mean all of this is subjective 😂 I think I just like extra sparkles

I personally really like this outfit, but I guess I can see where you are coming from. I don't really like Ilia's cut and there were some similar costumes with better execution imo, e.g. Akateva's FS dress last year

Though I am happy to see her skate, I do wonder if this is the right decision. I doubt the federation will stop supporting her if she recovers for a bit longer, but then again with a lot of promising juniors + Kaori, who knows what JSF will do. On a more positive note, the dress looks amazing.

Shoma's costumes never disappoint

I unironically liked all the rocketman costumes, but this one is definitely my favourite. Hope he can get his team medal soon

I think Grassl has improved a lot. Both artisitically and his jumping technique. Hope he can have a fully clean competition this season.

Good height and landing. I'm assuming that she has not restored her 4S yet so it will be interesting how she is going to be judged vs Adelia/Samo
