Miho's favorites

2015 Ladies figure skating world championships was on NBC on March 28! As usual, it was fun to see my favorite team of commentators Terry Gannon, Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski! I liked all three's fashion, Johnny's white jacket and hair style, Tara's white dress and make-up, and Terry's black suit. Johnny and Tara's commentary is getting more and more professional and we really enjoyed it. In this season 2014- 2015,  our favorite skater who inspired us alot was Elizaveta TUKTAMYSHEVA ! We always liked her from when we first saw her, and until last season, she was no one. And even after she won a B level competition in early this season, people were not valuing her, and many were saying that she can only win a B level competition and she will never be able to be the top Russian lady. However, they were wrong. As a result, she challenged a total of 13 competitions and won 10 events ( including Grand Prix Finale, European Championship, a

It was so exciting and thrilling to watch US Nationals Figure skating competitions this year ! I really liked how NBC covered all the US nationals events. It was also great to see Terry Gannon, Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski  back together again for the commentary ! Because they are so fun and makes me feel great so I really love watching these three together's appearance. Also, it was enjoyable to watch the scenes with many skaters's impressive Kiss & Cry moments during the events. I thank you to NBC ! About the events, My favorite events were men's and ice dancing this year. Men Men's competition, winner was unpredictable seeing the results of Grand Prix Series. No one was qualified for GPF this season, so I thought Jason Brown, Jeremy Abbott, Max Aaron, Richard Dornbush, Adam Rippon, Joshua Farris,   anyone of them could win. Result 1    Jason Brown      SP: 93.36   FP:181.62    Total: 274.98     2    Adam Rippon     SP:84.71

Machida said he is going to Waseda graduate University to study sports science and wants to get a PHD degree to be a researcher for it . He sounded like he was already thinking about his future after retiring from his skating life in last season. My impression of him is very intelligent and often calmly analyzing things and is a very hard worker. He was secretly studying hard for this since last season including  during the

2014 Grand Prix series figure skating competitions have started since October 23 , and we have watched Skate America and Skate Canada and Cup of China on NBC channel. It was so nice to see Johnny & Tara & Terry as the commentators in Skate America and Skate Canada. We really enjoyed and were laughing a lot in some of their comments. Johnny has already impact, even just sitting there, and also is entertaining and knowledgeable, and Tara is catching the rhythm of Johnny's talking well. I think they are really match together with commentating and also Terry is a wonderful veteran commentator. I really love seeing this commentator combination. That's one of the reasons I'm looking forward to seeing ISU competition on NBC. I was a little disappointed they didn't show them at the end at Skate Canada , and they were not commentating for Cup of China's event on November 9. Terry and Tracy did professional great job for Cup of China, although, I al
