Skate America 2010

Any news ? I haven't seen any practise clips yet.

I'm sure one of the sports programs on Fuji TV (Sporto) or Houdou Station @ TV Asahi will have some kind of SA preview fluff at least by tomorrow. Whether it'll get uploaded to YT or DM is anyone's guess however.

IN uploaded some practice clips so I'm to watch them now!

ETA: Nevermind, the practice clips on IN were quite short. I wanted to see more, especially since Lynn Rutherford tweeted that Rachel was working on a 3Lz+3Lo during practice and Kanako's jumps incl. the loop were looking very solid.

Icenetwork disappoints *again* with mislabeling CaroZ as Felicia Zhang (who is competing in pairs) in the practice clip for the ladies. Also, I'm quite confused as to why they showed Min-Jeong in practice but skipped over ElGed, CaroK, and Kanako, who actually have a chance of medaling here.

Do you have some links where I can watch Skate AMerica?

I can't believe IN didn't show Carolina

what?! They didn't show Caro? Why??

I'm not sure, but somehow they might think Caro is not a threat to Rachael and that's why they decided not to show her practice.

Oh... You're talking about practices, I thought they didn't show her program Do you watch on TV or internet? (and if you watch on TV on which channel? )

I think there will be some links to live stream, so if I find something I will post it here for sure. Because for now, I only have a link to georgian website which broadcasts Russian TV. The problem is , it is 15 minutes behind real time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HV4rSmak85U Men's practice.

15 minutes isn't a problem It's better than one day behind real time

Thanks for video with Men's practice Men's competition will be the most interesting one but I'm sure Takahashi will won it. I wonder who will win ladies event. I'm sure Flatt, Kostner and Murakami will be on the podium, but I have no idea who will win

DICE-K practice clip

Thank you everyone !
Yeah DICE-K! can't wait, can't wait!

SA's crowd attendance just keeps shrinking, doesn't it?
Tono in the lead, which is a no-brainer since both Dai and Adam had a step out in their SP today.

Dai's SP vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVG0OLvuX-0

He satisfies even with the mistakes!
Good thing he changed his hair for this pro...

Here's Nobunari's SP. I'm so happy he's in 1st place!

Me too!
And he seems happy with how the performance went also. It feels like a long time since I last saw him smile right after he finished like today. I heard some talk that the ice was a bit solid, and most of the skaters had troubles landing their jumps. When it comes to landing, nothing is more dependable than Nobu's soft knees.

hahahahahaha

I like Dai's hair today. Better than the one at NHK. But the style I like the best is the one on my avatar. I LOVE MY AVATAR
And his score is high considering he made 2 mistakes and had pretty much the same score as in NHK. I wonder how much he would score if his jumps were all landed properly.

The crowd...OMG many empty seats. Look at what you're doing ISU
