What a classy skater she is. And such an impressive comeback she has made. I have a feeling there are many of us who will be rooting for Gracie at Skate America and nationals.
I'll be rooting for her! She is lovely and it's just the beginning of the season.
Gracie has it all, however, she just needs to work on her conditioning and what she is projecting to the audience. For whatever reason her takes offs look lazy, as if she's not putting much energy into them and is hoping that the rest of the jump will take care of itself. You have to be careful with that b/c if you don't have enough energy on takeoff you could underrotate, causing an awkward position upon landing, thereby leading to possibly a scary fall. So, energy on takeoff is a safety issue, not a cosmetic one. On the artistic front, she looks like she was simply going through the motions. It felt more like a gymnastics routine than a figure skating performance. There's nothing wrong with Gracie's jumps. She could actually teach the younger girls how a triple Lutz is truly executed. She has nice lines. Also, something the younger girls would be wise to emulate. So, I look forward to seeing her progress this year. She may very well surprise us all at Nationals. She has the experience, she has the jumps, she has the class - now she just needs to use those weapons to turn in powerful performances. Remember, over the years, it's not about whether you won the Olympics. How many people are re-watching Sotnikova? Not me. How many millions continue to watch Michelle Kwan? In fact Michelle Kwan drew inspiration from someone who NEVER won an Olympic medal, the great Janet Lynn. And Janet was literally 30+ years BEFORE Michelle. So, why was Janet such an inspiration for Michelle? Because Janet produced moving performances! Period. THAT is the power of a heartfelt effort. You move people emotionally through time and space. So, that's where the focus should be, performances that will look beautiful and have an impact 20 years from now. And if Gracie can skate like that, she just may be able to grab a few major medals along her journey.
That 3lz-2a-2t was so unexpected!!! Loved that combo
Agreed!
That's an unusual combo I don't remember that anyone else do that before?
@@timothychow177 I think she was the first to do that
@@joaocampelo3725 I saw a Junior do a 3F 2A 2T this weekend
Lots of positive things for Gracie to take away from this. Yes there were errors, but is this not her first international in some time? Gorgeous lutz sequence. And she kept fighting. Go Gracie!
Even though she made a lot of mistakes, I actually find this skate encouraging because she had a lot of energy at the end of the program and didn't run out of gas and start doubling everything, which is what has been happening until now (since she's come back to the ice). So her stamina seems to be a lot closer to where it needs to be! I think this just needs more time now!
This was a fantastic start by Gracie! Probably should have been 10 points higher but she can be proud of this. Good to make mistakes here than at Skate America.
100%!
I really root for Gracie but we've been with her skating at this level for a few years now. It's not really a start imo.
As usual, her taste in costumes is great!
It's an old costume. She wore than dress for her short program in the 2014-2015 season. She wore the red version of the dress for her Olympic short program in 2014.
@@carrietremble still looks good
Yes, very classy! Might as well wear it again and spend that $2000 or whatever on training, rent, etc. She was always nicely packaged - hair, makeup, appropriate color of tights, good skirt length. Rooting for her at SAmerica!!!
I wish the music and choreography were more interesting, and Gracie needs to bring some facial expressions into the performance. It's good that she didn't give up after the mistakes.
Yes another fall but so happy to see her back on the international sene.
身体の使い方が流石にベテラン感あって素晴らしい。ゆっくりと復活して下さい👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I wish she would have some presence on the ice again. Her face is stuck in an anxious expression, her body and choreography is stiff. Looking back at her All That Jazz skate in 2014, she used to know how to put some personality into it.
She needs coach and choreography, it's just skate through and jumping, other than that, it's great improvement given where she is coming from.
I was just thinking the same. She needs a confidence boost.
yep.
Gracie is such an amazing skater on both the artistic and technical sides. I do wish she would cast off the intense concentration look and show enjoyment in what she is doing. This would go miles to bring the audience and judges into her performance. It may not be an easy thing for a skater to do, but "fake it until you make it." She has nothing to prove to us.
Watch her East of Eden last year. It was the most relaxed and present and full of enjoyment
@@siribaimusic It definitely was much better, but she really didn't come alive until after the jumps were over.
She looks so worried and nervous out there. Hope to see her improve more and not be apprehensive.
Good fight, Gracie! Keep it up, one skate at a time! We are cheering for you from WI. Good luck this skating season!!!
Gracie is bringing up her pace. And 'chosen' by Skate America. Go Gracie!
I know hopefully she'll get a better result.
katastrofe.
Good luck at SKAM, Gracie! So excited for you!
Despite all the positive comments here this just seems like the old Gracie to me: the one who can't control her nerves.
Always gorgeous. Love the stamina, the ice coverage and the fight. Never ever give up. Watching Gracie is like watching the reason figure skating was created.
Какая она классная! Не опустила руки, работает и возможно скоро мы увидим прежнюю Грейси, она была прекрасна!
к сожалению все ее победы в прошлом,очень слабая программа.
в отсутствие русских спортсменок
если кто то и может сделать достойное то это спортсменки из Японии и Южной Кореи.Эти всегда стремились быть в тренде и не отставать.У остальных этого нет
@@БорисоваИрина-я6в но прогресс очевиден!
Just heard about this skater and watched 2 videos... she deserves a bigger rink! She skates as though she loves ever inch of the ice! Go, Ms. Gracie!
So nice to see a graceful and powerful woman (vs the 15-16 yrs girls). Gracie is so fast in person. I saw her in 2014, live.
Kudos Gracie...love and respect the skater. My one and only critique has always been excessive arm movement.
Yes!! She looks strong! ❤️
tanzt wie ein komode. Schlimm. Langweilig.
Great!!! Amazing comeback! Wish you all the best and hope you do well!!!
Обожаю Грейси ❤️ Какая сильная и талантливая 🥰
И красивая.
еще бы ей похудеть да элементы ультра си освоить -мало быть красивой
Good for her! Love her tenacity!
Much better speed. And, even with the jump errors, it's like she's in charge here, not the ice. She's much less tentative. I'm looking forward to seeing her progress this seeason.
우아, 반가운 얼굴! 깜짝 놀래서 들어와 봄.. 아직 몸이 무거워 보이지만~ 응원해!! 골드!!!
While I loved when she began her big comeback and looked forward to her every year as the classic underdog...
Without her jumping prowess of her youth, it only showed her to be a bland competitor otherwise. No expression. She often appeared either bored or like someone held a gun to her head to be out there. Despite interviews saying she was competing for the love of skating, that never translated into anything you could give a good PCS score to. No connection to the music or audience. She skated in a bubble of silence and the music was merely present. This is a beautiful piece of music given a very mediocre treatment.
She moved in a very "prescribed" way. Choreography should be pulled off as if it were the skater's feelings and moves. It's a form of acting. She just looked like she memorized "her lines" and she "recited" them to a crowd with all the joy of a lead weight at the bottom of a lake. That went for all of her programs in this era. I hated that for her. She was better than that. I felt she was capable of more -- she HAD to be, right?
So many winning ideas over the years for her, "She Used to be Mine", "East of Eden", but they were never delivered with a champion -- or even an exhibition -- mentality. They were delivered in a stifled, muted manner and the apparent goal in mind was only to complete that 4 minutes -- not to enjoy it or give anything worthwhile to the audience.
Skating to Rach's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini suits her graceful style. Does she need a new jump coach? Could she ask Hanyu's help?
oh I really hope this season goes well for her and she finds her legs, even though there were mistakes in this and she looks somewhat tired it was still lovely. Love the gloves! I wish she would try some new moves and choreography though. Maybe it would help her to do something a bit different. She has done the same moves for 6-8 years or something
그레이시골드 선수생활 접은줄 알았는데 아니구나...
How beautiful is she 🥰🥰🌹🌹🌹
ぜひグランプリシリーズへ、再び
First of all, this was Gracie’s first full international competition in more than 4 years (last one was golden spin of Zagreb in 2017), it was a great decision to compete here because this did take most of the pressure off from her since she didn’t compete internationally for so long and will work as experience for her next event, she has improved so much in just one year, she started to skate clean shorts since last year and now she’s showing a fighting spirit that we’ve rarely seen from her even when she was at the top of her game, this shows why she still is (and probably always be) one of the most talented skaters the US ever had, I wish that she finally beats her demons and shows her full potential❤
Молодец👏После долгого перерыва снова делает то,что любит.Удачи ей🤍
Слабо
The Russians are still more entertaining to watch!
my thoughts exactly, even the youngsters at the recent Russian test skates impressed me more
the thing why many respect gracie is how she fought to get back. she had a bad eating disorder and she went of the ice for some time. to even come back , to international ice after 4 years shows her fighting spirit. not many would stand where she is now if they were in her shoes
She's perfectly back!!!!!
Kann nicht zum ende anschauen.
Что за унылые программа и катание… не интересно от слова совсем. Не смогла досмотреть.
Gutsy performance. So proud of her. It’s very difficult to come back, so I admire her perseverance. She definitely has the potential to make a comeback.
I expected so much more from Gracie with the improvements we saw early on but she really has lost speed, conviction, amplitude which she had in spades years ago. The "good" in me wants her to continue and show the world and yes do it for herself and this is the year with Russia gone, Korea not back at the top and Japan while good not as good as in the past when Wakaba, Miyahara and or Mao were on top. But GRacie in this skate has a lack of confidence, a lack of conviction and a lack of drive. The jumps weren't as big or fast. She skated lifelessly trhough the program rather than in the program. Even her costume was not as nice but to be fair it might be money issues. And she needs to get rid of the gloves - at least in the short. We can say skate for yourself, do it for you, y ou have nothing to prove, ; we can say with Bell uncommitted, Liu retired and Chen not really out there this is her time. I understand money might be the issue too - skating time, coaching and that explain the dresses no longer having that panache, style and showiness. I wonder if she has an exit strategy? Or perhaps she will coach and because the us skating has not had great superstars lately shemay be able to make a living doing some of the few shows. Or we might see her on a cruiseship or nudes on ice or something.
Really don’t like that program
It looks like something uninspired from the 80’s & the costume is so sad
The costume is pretty very elegant
It's an old dress from her 2014-2015 short program. She wore the red version of the dress for her 2014 Olympic short program.
Agree, it gave me the vibe of royal funerals
Agreed dowdy and the program is shit and she’s not into it at all
@@longarmoftheOOHLALA couldn’t agree more with yr comment
Not sure Rachmaninov a great fit. We all wish her well but has she ever had solid coaching/advice post-Frank?
Boring season.
I still love that she's here. At this point, the medals don't matter, I simply adore watching Gracie.

Жуть!🙀🙈🙈🙈
Согласна. Регресс ФК
Great job 👏. What was her score?
Keep going Gracie! Doing awesome!!
So many beautiful moments...wonderful skater. LOVE her new costume...beautiful back jeweled piece and the full length gloves accentuate the gracefulness of her arms. Beautiful!
It reminds me very much of her short program costume that she wore for the Olympic season in 2014, except that one was red. And without gloves. Very lovely lines and sparkle.
I’m sorry but this is awful
This is indeed awful. Two major mistakes, no choreography, insipid movements. Looks like she does not know what to do with her arms. It is very clear now why ISU members tried so hard to destroy Kamila Valieva.
@@francescolimasters4256 kamila is just dopping girl
@@francescolimasters4256 약발리예바는 빼라좀 ㅋㅋ
@@gimmethat98 Kamila have the highest level in FS in the whole world, "just a doping girl", doping will not be able to make jumping quads or beautiful loops. you'd have to be a complete fool not to get that
@@francescolimasters4256 LOL -- Kamila was destroyed by her very own team; not by the ISU. If they hadn't been drugging her she would have won the olympics anyhow. It's not the ISU's fault Kamila was caught cheating. I love her skating and talent, but her own team betrayed her -- not the ISU.
Скучно,много пустот в программе.
One of my favorite pieces of music. As of today, she has retired from competition.. May she enjoy the next chapter in her life.
Maybe you mean Mariah Bell? Gracie is at Skate America this weekend and is in the press speaking about her comeback.
when i watch this i feel totally disinterested because it has no soul and the music doesn't go along with her body movements russian is better than all the skaters out there
Dreary music choice!
Ели катит, тяжеловато
Is she retired yet?
her time was long over
But, it’s not. She’s gonna skate for as long as her heart desires!! 😀
