Ladies warming up, here we go 

The link I posted is obviously a recording and not live since they're on Dmitri right now so ignore it if you wanna see live. 

Alina step out on 2A, but looked solid. Still 3Lz-3Lo.

Tukt looked very good.

Mika's short program is very promising, I love it.

Zhenya looks fantastic! 

Bingo for an Olympic SP! 

I liked Kolyada's SP very much! Different from what he's done before, improved skating skills, better spins ... great idea to go and work with Lambiel!

Have to admit, Zhenya's program was beautiful. I don't know if it was the music (though were those heartbeats at the start and beginning?), but it was really mesmerizing. Can't wait to see it live. 

 

And Liza looked great. Her jumps were the biggest. Alina looked good too but I think the program still has a lot of room to grow. Go Alina! Cheering for you!

Just watched Kolyada's SP and once he tightens up those jumps, it's gonna be a very impressive program! Really liked what I saw.

Yes, basically I am the same. Biggest impression Zhenya, then Tukt.

I am not fond of Radio's at all, though granted maybe it will look better when viewed properly. Alina's ... well, she looks solid but I am not sold on the program. 

 

Sotskova is Sotskova.

Hopefully when Alina settles more into the program it will resonate more with the audience. Really rooting for her to do well this season

Yes, same. Zagi is such a promising skater that I am sure it'll improve as season goes on. I think the addition of costume alone will help; skating in practice clothes is one thing and full get up another. 

If I didn´t know it was Kolyada I would not have recognized him. Couldn´t see his face clearly on the video. His skating was smoother and the choreo was very different than before. To me it looked like he had to try very hard to get all the moves with arms etc done but it´s still early.

 

Schedule for tomorrow's Test Skates.
