I mean, you can’t really do Clair de Lune much better than that. Kaitlyn Weaver outdid herself with that choreo, it’s a masterclass from Mone Chiba. I’ll be curious to see if my exuberance here is because this program is new or if the next time I see it, I will feel the same

My scores for the men's short at Cup of China looked just a bit different
Mao Shimada continues her undefeated streak - now 2-for-2 as a senior international (and like 200000 for 200000 as a junior international)
