Skate America Ladies Preview

Ashley Wagner is the reigning Skate America Champion and will be seeking to defend her title.  She claimed two gold medals on the Grand Prix last season but injuries, illness and jump issues plagued her the rest of the season and she finished 5th at Worlds.  She didn't put the triple + triple out for most of the season last year and has stated that she knows that she needs the combination to be competitive for the Olympic podium.  She split from her choreographer after the end of last season and John Nicks is no longer traveling with her so she's splitting her training time.  Her "Bedroom Juliet" free skate got mostly positive reviews at the Japan Open but she still had a few kinks to work out.

Mao Asada won every event she entered last season until Worlds and made the podium for the first time since 2010.  Her triple axel has still been hit or miss and when she hits it she has a large advantage over the field although missing it can often take the wind out of her program.  She crossed the 200 point mark at Four Continents and is only one of a handful of female skaters capable of doing so.

Elena Radionova is making her Grand Prix debut after sweeping the junior circuit last season.  She won gold at Nebelhorn Trophy in her senior debut and is well known for her triple + triples.  She is too young to compete at Europeans, Worlds or the Olympics but she is set to continue the Russian tradition of young promising skaters making their mark on the senior circuit.

Elizaveta Tuktamisheva had a more difficult sophomore season on the Grand Prix but still managed to qualify for the Final.  She won the bronze medal at Europeans in her first trip and finished in the top 10 at Worlds.  She had an up and down season and her normally sturdy jumps seemed to fail her at times.

Valentina Marchei and Mae Berenice Meite are perennial Skate America competitors and are both a joy to watch.  Marchei had moments of brilliance mixed with subpar performances.  Meite has long been known for her athleticism and jumps and has vowed to work on her artistry this season.

My podium predictions:
Gold: Mao Asada
Silver: Elena Radionova
Bronze: Ashley Wagner
