| Katrina has just finished a pretty good skate. (Group 2 is skating now). The cameras zoomed in on Kat Witt in the seats after Katarina Gerboldt's skate (probably because they are both Katarina and she skated to Carmen here!). She was smiling and waving with Midori, who sat next to her. Mao's practice looked pretty good. She landed a few 3A's, had a bad lean on the landing of another. Eeek, I feel nervous again. This was just not Mirai's competition, at all. I hope she comes back strong at her Nats! | |

| It looks like Yukari won't make the GPF... She skated great in LP, but the mistakes in SP cost her a lot. She needed to place 1st or 2nd... Akiko was great, though. | |

| Ashley behind Akiko and Yukari! Not a bad skate, but probably some downgrades..? Good luck, Mao! | |

| She stumbled and ended after the music, but AMAZING performance from MAO! She landed the 2 3A's, no obvious errors. It's up to the judges to ratify them or not now. | |

A very deserved all-Japanese sweep - there's an on-the-spot interview for the medalists. Well, that was probably the most enjoyable ladies event out of the GP - the medalists all gave very good performances. I was hoping Ashley will pull things off better, but her double-footing and step outs cost her the medal. If there is a skater I feel sad for, its Mirai...I sincerely hope she can pull herself out of the growth spurt/injury limbo. ETA: Protocols are up, Mao received +1.60 for her first 3A, and a complete +1.00 on her step sequence!

| Wow!!!! Her 1st ever clean triple lutz in the Sp and then 2 triple axels - people are saying the 2nd one being downgraded was harsh - and a triple sal in the LP.
That was her 1st triple salchow in competition since 2003 Nationals!!!!! | |

She really is! I can't help but laugh at the poor souls who counted her out. Tsktsktsk. Mao is also the official Drama Queen too, I think! That weird stumble in the end of her spin came out of nowhere, but it gave the Russian commentator a good-natured chuckle. Mao's FS: http://www.mediafire.com/?zo4anmirjkt (for those having problems with the video, try d/l the Russian WebTV program - thanks Okami for the tip! ) As with most live feeds, the video stops for 3 seconds or so after Mao lands her 3A - 2T, but everything else is fine. Her first 3A was out of this world!Currently encoding Mao's FS to upload to DM as well. Hang on folks! | |
