FRIDAY’S COVERAGE: LADIES’ SHORT PROGRAM (MARCH 26, LIVE AT 11 A.M.)
Weir (on Kim Yu-Na): “The ladies' are scored on a slightly lower scale than the men, but her score was only six points less than my score in Vancouver, so that just tells you how strong she is."
Weir: "At the Ladies' Senior World Championships, a double-loop is not acceptable."
QUOTES FROM THE STUDIO SHOW (HOSTED BY PETER CARRUTHERS)
Weir: (on Russian skater Ksenia Makarova): "She's like a queen on ice. There's a very regal quality to her, a purpose to every movement. Today, I don't understand how she's behind (Italian skater) Carolina (Kostner) and (Finnish skater) Laura (Lepisto). For me, reputation shouldn't be as important as it is in figure skating. Her skating was superior to both of their skating."
Weir (on the judges’ downgrade of Mao's triple Axel jump): "There's something with her ankles, I think they are double-jointed. Even if her body isn't all the way around, she can smudge it a little bit. Her technique -- the swing she gets heading into the jump -- helps her get so high into the air and it's a great take-off. I think she gets downgraded when it's actually a clean jump."On Mirai Nagasu:
Weir: "I want her to have that 'look at me' expression that she had at the Olympics. There's a lot of buzz going on around her. It's important that she skates clean to keep herself legitimate. Not winning Nationals lit a fire, but a lot of people in that building thought she should have won."
Weir: "She had the sparkle in her eyes today. Her technique has improved. Her skills rival Kim Yu-Na and Mao Asada, and she's a skater that has grown-up in this new system. She knows how to work every point.”
On Kim Yu-Na’s disappointing performance in the short program:
Weir: "Figure skating is a political sport. Mirai was already in first place representing the same country, and the skater that skates afterward will be judged harsher. Rachael came across – I’m not trying to be funny – but ‘flat’.”
SATURDAY’S COVERAGE: LADIES’ FREE PROGRAM (MARCH 27, LIVE AT 10 A.M.)
On the forecast for the Ladies’ free program:
Weir: "I say Mao Asada. I think the two triple Axels and her (level of) experience will help her at the World Championships. I want her to skate without abandon. There’s no other woman pushing the technical boundaries like Mao."（大爱）
Weir: Kim Yu-Na beat the ladies by a giant margin (in Vancouver). It is possible for her to make up this deficit by skating clean. Mirai has a lot of pressure; she has to be as perfect as possible. If she gets nervous, the first thing that happens is you revert back to your comfort zone, and that might include mistakes.” |
