[macerface]

really nice! i wish katrina hacker wouldn't have quit, she had so much potential!

[MrAmazingness1234567]

2:50 for 2010!!!!!!

[ymanganelli]

Awesome clips:)

[waddleduckie1]

Personally I am not crazy about Katrina Hacker.. possibly because of her German ancestry and that she almost shares the name of another German skater. I also think that Caroline and Mirai are both better than her, And yet Alissa Czisny is better than Hacker. I think Hacker is good, at the spirals, but she looks stiff. She needs to be more graceful.

[FiGuResKaTiNgxD]

[lizfallonn]

i loved bebe liang's dress! same with caroline zhang and kimmie meissner. great video! there all such beautiful skaters.

[aznhottie52]

go mirai!

but i also think that all the women are amazing

[waddleduckie1]

MeissnerParis, so far you still haven't gone first class for your crappy behavior. GET lost loser. Caroline and Alissa still got class and a chance to make it BIG. Caroline is getting some more speed and so does Alissa who is showing improvements to her consistency. And might I suggest you take some psycho therapy to control your persistent babbling of your own?

[emilyhf3]

What happened to Bebe Liang? She is quite a strong skater and has tremendous potential.

[samanthacheng]

A great support to Mirai Nagasu.

[dsfddsgh]

Looks like all the talk of these young skaters challenging the asian skaters is premature. Mirai nagasu has struggled this year and is looking to be a one year wonder and unless Zhang and Flatt need to improve or they won't be threats either. Not sure if its good that a 21 year old not known to be a big event skater winning is a good thing for the US with Vancouver just over a year awyay.

[Chick6517]

Talk about unique! haha I have a friend who does these kinds of videos! that's cool to see someone else do it. but make more! haha

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

I HOPE ALISSA OR CAROLINE WINS!!!

[MeissnerParis]

Sorry to disappoint you. Alissa can never win since she only can land maximum 3 triples jump LOL. Caroline Zhang, that slow motion girl with poor high kick jump technique. !, UR, She won't even medal at US or qualify for to go to olympic by that time LOL

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

shut the hell up she is only a person. she can only do what she can do.

[indysk8r32]

It ain't what it used to be. But good for Alissa for sticking with it!! I hope she ends up with the Gold. I would love to see Bebe get a medal for all her years out of the spot light too, but it doesn't look like it'll happen this time around. 2010 is going to be a very, very interesting year!!

[BennySings]

Czisny won the short program..Free skate tomorrow night on NBC.

[Sapphira51496]

I have a feeling Caroline will medal

[espinaca79]

I have the feeling this year's is going to be Flatt's title, even after having Alissa in first place after the SP...

[jpfdw]

i don't think rachel flatt is a pretty skater. it's kinda like the jumps are all a skater needs. no grace, line. beauty in skating is not a prerequisite anymore. just the jumps takes a little bit out of it when one skater wins because she has the best jumps on a particular day and that doesn't add not much to the sport, generally speaking.

[espinaca79]

Oh, I'm rooting for Alissa so bad! But she tends to crack... :(

[twirlerdb]

It is Rachel's posture and her neck. I am so glad Alyssa won she is so much prettier, elegant, classy, graceful, her routine is much more interesting and complex,

[loverly18]

Kimmie Meissner withdrew due to injury = [

[starsesthetic]

amazing montage 5 stars.

[tellito1]

nobody skates with the passion and grace of the greatest MICHELLE KWAN!!!!

[MeissnerParis]

yes, Kimmie Meissner does, and she does it even better than Michelle Kwan

[toughtop]

MeissnerParis, you suck. Back off from the comment boards and pick some skates yourself. We'll see then who gets her butt kiss the ice.

[espinaca79]

Oh, really? By the time of Kimmie's age, Michelle had already won the title of the world 3 times, was a 4 time national champion and an olympic silver medalist. To this day, Kimmie has won only ONE national title and ONE world title. You're lost.

[MeissnerParis]

Oh, really? But what Michelle won by the cheated judging system. It does not mean anything. If Michelle is really true champion like all the title she has earned, she should has at least win something under new judging system (a more fair system) like Irina and other. However, she won none and not even make it to the podium standing. So, in conlusion, 1 title Kimmie won = 4 title of Michelle won. Get it? Who lost? I guess u know it now. Michelle lost and she get lost LOL. What a shame!

[tellito1]

michelle kwan is far better than kimmie , michelle is pure elegance and grace and kimmie looks stiff in her preformances!!

[MeissnerParis]

But Kimmie's talent got certified while Michelle got none but off the podium.

[tellito1]

i think michelle is the gold medal for vancouver 2010!!

[MeissnerParis]

oh yeah, "you think" only? sound not really confident LOL. Kimmie is the GOLD MEDAL for Vancouver 2010!!!

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

kimmie is never going to win the olympics.

just face it.

[MeissnerParis]

so does Yuna. Just face it.

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

yuna might place, but so might kimmie. it's just that they prob won't win.

[MeissnerParis]

what the hell you're talking about. If they won win then who will?

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

im talking about the 2010 olympics. i don't think yuna OR kimmie is gonna win.

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

and ur posts dont make sense sometimes....

try to spell words so they're understandable.

[YuNaKimIsNumbr1]

i take that back. i think yuna might win.

[maofefe]

Ooh I really like your previews! Great job.

[loverly18]

Forgot to ask, will you be doing a preview that involves the other disciplines as well? I really liked the one you had for 2008!

[MNskater07]

I want to! But it all depends on my schedule these next few weeks and how much time I have! :) I'm taking a class right now over break and it's keeping me very busy! :)
