Can't wait to see Mao at 4CC and Worlds! flower

LP was soo beautiful Love Hearts

3F-3T had a small wobble on the landing, but it was higher and more rotated than at GPF, IMHO Love Hearts

Two first spins were so fast Whirly

3F-3L was so good Boogie

Steps gorgeous like usual Swoon

unfortunately I have hardly any time to post now but it doesn't mean I don't follow every Mao-chan's performance!

I see you online sometimes, so I know that you follow Mao's performances flower

Good luck with whatever takes up so much of your time! cheers

Quote :: Is it just me or does anybody else also think this was by far the best performance of this LP? Yes, it wasn't clean but I think this time she showed much more personality than anytime before. She is really maturing and turning into a great artistic performer!

I think so as well! It was gorgeous Swoon

She improves with every performance Wub

CONGRATULATION MAO!! cheers

She said in an earlier interview that she never won a big title 2 years in a row and she wanted to do it at the all-japan championships and she succeed!!! Very Happy

This was a wonderful performance, although she missed the 3axel, she was able to focus to do the rest of the program wonderfully! Beautiful spins, steps, spirals and jumps!! Very Happy

Also, I'm sooooo happy she's going to the 4 continents championships, this will be a good competition! I'm happy about that because I thought we would be seeing her skating in competition only one other time this season with this program...then we will see her 2 more times!!! Very Happy

Does anyone know when is the exhibition?

Her new costume is really nice. The combination of soft purple and soft white is very elegant. I think that she looks really pretty in sweet colors. I also like this fluffy, soft material and shiny decorations that look girlish and gorgeous at the same time.

Wow it's really a beautiful picture! It almost looks like an artwork. sunny

I like the light and shadow ranging from blushed red to brown on her face. That gives a lot of depth and emotion to her expression.
