Sarah Meier FS Finlandia Trophy 2008 (missing first 10 seconds because of a strange incident... apparently she passed the 1-minute limit between calling the name of the skater and starting to skate, and they started to play her music when she was not ready for her opening pose yet)
No, before they had a longer time to get ready, maybe 3 minutes, and then they were disqualified if they didn't start.

isnt that better than before though? didnt the rule used to be that if after 1 minute you would get a zero and the next skater would be called?

This year ISU has changed the rules- the skater has 1 minute time to start her program after her name has been called or else the music will just start playing and the skater has to catch up.

Eh, what WAS the strange incident if you could tell me? As usual, Sarah is so graceful and so well composed into her skating routine. I really enjoyed watching her skate!

oh I think this piece of music suits her. I like it more than the music from her last FP.

I like this program for her, but I wouldn't be surprised if she decided to take the triple loop out of her short and long programs and replace it with a different triple jump as the season progresses. It just doesn't seem to be a consistent jump for her.

Thank you so, so, so much for posting all those great videos from Finlandia Trophy! Do you also happen to have SP and LP videos of Katarina Gerboldt of Russia?

ok not a great performance but this program has a lot of potential. She could be great come Euros and Worlds.
