Ilia: I feel really relieved with that skate, one of the best skates I’ve ever had. I had to fight for every element, and grateful for the Japanese crowd. Without them I don’t think it would have been possible.

I’m very happy about the bronze, I had wanted to be on the podium and am happy I achieved that. I heard Malinin’s points and got nervous, but focused on myself and performed. I felt the atmosphere of the crowd and realised he had put out something incredible.

Honestly I am very frustrated, but rather than being strange mistakes, they’re straightforward mistakes with my jumps. My result, content and points are all frustrating, but I will work hard so it will be better in two weeks.

Alysa: The thought of doing a free skate with a triple axel is intriguing, and I would like to satisfy that curiosity, in front of a crowd and in an arena. I love to perform, and that would put on a show.

I feel pretty satisfied. I’m pretty critical of my performances. Of course, I always want to make sure I put out really good things so there are people out there who can enjoy it.

The nerves are different from the Junior level. But I think my experience helped me skate well even with those nerves. Before my performance, I said “let’s do it for Mao-chan.” I told my coach that I would skate well because Mao-chan was in the audience.

I think the axel was like yesterday’s lutz, I don’t really know what happened. 30% of me thought however that there might be a mistake, so it was a little bit expected and less of a shock than yesterday and I could add the combination, so it didn’t drag the rest of the

I thought the second axel would be a Q when I landed it. I will be working hard on it. Seeing my points now, I think that there is still a long way to go. I think it’s a big deal that I’ve landed the three axels, and will do everything I can do at Nationals.

I was actually having a hard time breathing in the six-minute warm-up and that was really stressing me out. I was kind of all over the place today, and especially for the triple axel, I was able to really calm myself and trust myself in that moment.

I’m very happy about the performance. I want to perform [the free] with four quads, but that is a second goal now. Let’s see how the practices go.

I was feeling very nervous during this event and it wasn’t easy for me to skate, especially physically. It was really very hard but I’m satisfied that I gave my best, especially because I enjoyed the skate.

I feel not bad. It was good, not perfect of course, but I was fine, and that is very important for me now. The first quad toe loop was so bad, but the second was so good. I would say today it was a fight with myself.

Guillaume: We had a really good performance up until [the fall].
Laurence: It’s a bittersweet kind of feeling. Overall, we’re very happy with the performance we did. We got up right away and completed the performance with a lot of strength.

I’m still very much on cloud nine. Really happy and also exhausted. I’m really happy with the skate and with the whole week. It felt like a long week with the day in between, but I’m proud of how we paced ourselves, stayed present, and brought all of our energy today
