Danielle Earl's time conversion from Vancouver to Toronto - especially useful if you're watching a live stream...

Another debut of my music today! If you’re at the #gpf for the opening ceremonies you will get to hear my new piece. Would appreciate any reports on how it sounds in the big arena!

Three members of the board not only attended the GPF but were seated side-by-side in the arena - definitely a good event. I also got to meet two other board "lurkers" who approached me and kindly thanked me for all the information I post

Ted Barton apparently reported that Alina Zagitova twisted her ankle before the FS and she confirms it in this interview:
Do you think that might have impacted the results of the ladies event?

From what I remember (and that is still sketchy from all the excitement of being there live) her skate did not seem to be hampered by an injury. She is a spunky woman, but it is worrisome that the skaters try to skate at any price through injury which might come back to haunt them later on. See Yuzuri.
I am still so happy I attended this event and making new friends, including board members and "lurkers".Thank you All. Hope to attend more of those competitions in the future.

That is too bad for Elizaveta Tuktamysheva, especially missing their Nationals. It is such a competetive field. I read an intereview with Alina Z. where you could read between the lines how "friendly" or not these women are among themselves. Sorry, it was on my cell and I have no idea how to post it here.
