Paskud Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Marin Quote I took a complete break from practice for only three days, and after that I was riding on the ice without jumping and using my right hand (practicing) (today). (Acting) I was thinking about what to do if (shoulder) came off with a spin, so I'm glad I could go through for the time being. https://twitter.com/AxelQuadruple/status/1314551889740984321 Quote I was the most anxious about skating, but I decided to go out, so I wanted to do what I could. There were times when I was about to quit. I said "No" and slipped. I dislocated my right shoulder when I jumped in practice at the end of last month. I put it back in by myself, but it came off again in the next day's practice. [about "I'm an Albatraoz":] It was originally a program with a lot of exercise. It was hard for me now. Even when I can practice well, I am worried about my physical strength, a tight program. Tomorrow, I'll jump twice [only doubles?]. I'm glad I was able to pass today's performance for the time being. Tomorrow I'll do my best to aim for a perfect level 4 in other parts and aim for a high score in the absence of jumps. https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202010090000884.html Quote I had a dislocation of my shoulder in a jump the week before the Japan Open, and at that time I put it in myself and started practicing the next day. I missed it for two days in a row. I was asked to enter at the hospital, but I felt a bit sick and couldn't practice from there. https://twitter.com/AxelQuadruple/status/1314549508571717633 Quote I started practicing jumping today and hadn't been able to jump for about two weeks, so I was acting in the most anxious way I've been skating. I was able to go free for the time being. I'm glad I skated to the end without stopping on the way. https://twitter.com/AxelQuadruple/status/1314548168135114753 Miyu Quote I enjoyed being able to do it [compete] with my sister, and I feel like I'll do my best tomorrow. I decided to do my best in skating and acting until the 4th grade of college. One thing can be done by other people. If you don't do two things, you're not Miyu Honda. First of all, the purpose of this tournament is to enjoy tomorrow's free time as calmly as it is today, and to pass through, so I will do my best tomorrow to advance to eastern Japan. https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202010090000920.html Yuka Quote [about SP Elisabeth:] My mother said she liked this song, and I thought I'd skate with her favorite song about once. I thought I had done figure skating as hard as I could. I have a few months left. I hope I can face it to the end and take steps in my next life. "It's kind of like job hunting," she said. A remote interview conducted after the performance answered the question through the camera. "I have to look at the camera all the time and talk." It was similar to job hunting. It is said that employment at a general company has been decided. [about what she learned from figure skating:] There are some, but I wonder if I can make use of it myself, no matter how difficult it may be, I think that I can make use of it no matter what path I take to go through to the end without giving up. Because it's the last season, my big rough goal is to be able to give back to those who have taken care of me so far. For that purpose, I will do my best to do what I can do right now. https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202010090000518.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SitTwizzle Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 She's only a novice (shewas 11 in August 2019), but Tsuyoboogie Twitter account reports she did a triple axel rotated q in August. Here's an interview after 2019 training camp. Do somebody know where she's training? Also, Mone Chiba was first at Tohoku Junior Ladies short program. How moving, at Challenger Cup this February she skated like a little girl, now she's skating like a "young woman", with beautiful lines and body expression. And her spins!

How moving, at Challenger Cup this February she skated like a little girl, now she's skating like a "young woman", with beautiful lines and body expression. And her spins! She is Ami Nakai, based in Niigata, where Tohoku-Hokkaido Regional this year is taking place. She is hoping to be able to rotate fully and land 3A until Nationals. (for novice level) She says she admires Mao Asada and Rika Kihira as a role model in jumping and expression, respectively. https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202010100000935.html I am happy for Mone. According to an interview after SP, she had not been able to train on the ice until June because of the spread of the virus. She assesses her current state as 90 percent of how she was a year ago but is still thankful that she has been able to train in a better environment compared to other skaters. On her SP music from Martian OST, she says that she is hoping to be able to express the strength of the astronaut who tries to come back to earth risking his life in a desperate situation. https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202010100000356.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose she trained a lot off-ice then. "thankful that she has been able to train in a better environment compared to other skaters" Well, it may be... And so, the second, Hono Segawa, is also from Sendai? I suppose she will go to Junior Nationals too? I hope they will both do well, but of course I hope first, that they will thrive tomorrow.

They have to qualify for the East Japan Sectional and be raked in the top 7 first, though I am not sure how difficult/easy it would be because I haven't been following novice and juniors so closely. Wish them good luck tomorrow. ETA: Sorry, Mone will be able to compete at Junior Nationals this year regardless of her result at regionals and sectionals since she is the reigning champion. ETA2: Please forget about ETA 1 since I was seeing the result of East Japan Sectional 2019. Mone and Hono need to be ranked in the top 7 at EJS this year to compete at Junior Nationals.

sweetwater Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Top 3 ladies at Tokyo Regionals: (from left to right) Akari Matsubara(2nd), Yuka Nagai(1st), Ibuki Sato(3rd) https://www.nikkansports.com/sports/news/202010100000698.html According to this interview, Yuka has already found a job and is going to start working for a company next spring. She chose to revisit East of Eden with which she leaped forward and finished fourth at Nationals 6 years ago. She says she has a good impression of this piece. She has gone through ups and downs since then, and now her program is laden with such experiences. She says she is hoping to train well until the next competition to be able to be confident. She also wants to deliver a performance that would convey her feeling of gratitude even through the screen to the people who have been supporting her.

sweetwater Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Rinka Watanabe competed as a senior at Tohoku-Hokkaido and finished 1st in the SP. She also attempted 3A, although it got downgraded. She came back from Canada and took part in this competition after 14 days of self-quarantine. In Canada, she had to remain off the ice for about a month while her home rink was closed, then resumed training in other rinks that were away from her home until she could go back to her home rink in July. However, she feels that the experience of controlling herself to train under such circumstances helped her in this competition. Due to travel restrictions between Canada and Japan, she is planning to stay in Japan until February, while training under coach Hamada. https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2020/10/10/kiji/20201010s00079000494000c.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
