http://www.isuresults.com/results/gpjpn2011/SEG003.HTM Kiira’s performance has been affected by some problems with Technical Elements: an unusually low score, even on Double Axel, always one of her best jumps. Maybe physical conditions are not perfect, as we feared, anyway podium is only five points away… come on Kiira, skate your heart out tomorrow!
Kiira Korpi will skate 8th, just after Mao Asada.
Starting Order / Ladies Short Program

It’s 26th September 2011 today… Yes!The whole Kiira-Korpi.net community wishesHappy Birthday to Kiira!!Hope this coming season a fruitful and delightful one!
According to a Finnish journalist, Kiira will skip Japan Open 2011 due to leg pain. The injury seemed not serious at all but they decided to skip the competition just to be safe. No information on the official site of Japan Open yet. She will start her season at Finlandia Trophy which will be held in 7-9 October at Vantaa, Finland. Get well soon, Kiira!
Kiira is frequently appearing on promotional videos for “Nordic Special” TV programs by NHK, Japanese public broadcasting organization – as you know, one of organizers of NHK Trophy (the other organizer is Japan Skating Federation). In the videos, Kiira says “shi-a-wa-se” which means “Happiness” in Japanese.
“Nordic Special – from countries of happiness -” programs will be started from Sat, 23 to Sun, 31 July and they will introduce the charms of 5 Nordic countries with 70 programs for 80 hours.
Yesterday, I found a really huge poster of Kiira at Shinjuku station in Tokyo! Wow! ISU announced the entries for next season’s GP: Kiira is selected for NHK Trophy in Sapporo (Japan – 11/13 November) and Rostelecom Cup of Russia in Moscow (25-27 November). Since now, only ten entries are allowed: Laura Lepisto will come back as well, at Skate America in Ontario (California) and TEB in Paris. As everyone already knew, won’t be present Yu-Na Kim and Miki Ando. Each skater has the chance to participate at three events, and only two better results will be considered, as Carolina Kostner and Alena Leonova seem going to do. http://isu.sportcentric.net/db//files/serve.php?id=2687 |
