Why can't Taka go with a simple dark blue blouse:?:

First mark exceeded 90, sportsnavi says.

actually, it's 91.35.

Javi: TES: 91.35 | PCS: 85.56
Taka: TES: 79.14 | PCS: 79.28

Jeremy: 4Tfall 3A+3T CSSp 2F+1T StSq 2A 3A 3S 3Lz+2T 3Lo ガッツポーズ FUSp ChSq CCoSp

157.70
TES: 74.20
PCS: 84.50
Deduction: -1.00

And Javi still gets higher PCS than Jeremy!

At least, sportsnavi is working well. Thanks "COHK"

Does anyone know what's "CUsp" as a technical element? It's in Mao's FS program (prior to Stsq)

I assume she wants to avoid worsening her back pain.

Ah! Thanks, linglang!

Go Dai!!

I hope Taka's low PCS are due to his unsuccessful season last year. I am glad to see he is in a much better shape now, his components must rise with every competition

Here is Taka's score: Takahiko KOZUKA JPN 180.79 98.53 82.26 8.39 7.93 8.39 8.21 8.21 0.00

I see, Taka needs to rebuild up reputation. I hope his components will rise as you say.
I know we have to wait until we actually see their actual performances, but I assume Javi's skating skills might dramatically improved because he's been working at Criket Club with Brian Orser, Tracy Wilson ...

Perhaps Dai's still not yet recovered from the cold....
Kudos to Japan, into 1st after the men's

Dai-chan ...   But it's OK because it's JO.  It's better to stumble at JO and do much better in GPS/F.

Team Japan
