I think her arm/back injury might be giving her trouble again. If it was the ice, I think the jumps would suffer. Miki said once that spins/spirals/steps make her arm hurt more than the jumps...
Maybe the pain causes her to lose concentration, which results in "odd" mistakes.

That was never an option after Nakano and Ando didn't falter. Kim could have done 3 Triples and won this thing.

In the instant replay on NBC, Yu-na had a very lip. I am kinda getting angry with this judging system almost choosing just which skaters get picked on. They seem to be forgetting Yu-na's mistakes. Not that there were many mistakes, but she isn't as perfect as she is being made to seem.

Well, if we ( Americans ) want a lady in the Final, it looks like the weight of the world is now on Caroline's little shoulders.

I happy with how the event was scored. Yu-Na, Yukari and Miki were amazing.
I'm really happy that Rachael got 4th. She's so consistent and will be better as the season goes on, I'm sure.
I'm brokenhearted for Kimmie. I want her to do well so badly.

What about Ashley; do you think she might have a chance?

don't forget about Ashley Wagner!
Wow, Kimmie not even in the top 6, and Rachael and Mirai 40-50 points out of gold. The US ladies have a long way to climb for the rest of the season.
Yu-na was hardly skating her best. If she had nailed the 3R (granted that's always iffy), done spins and footwork she's really capable of, and done the 3F-3T up to her normal standards, she'd easily break 200. But very good so early in the season. Wouldn't mind her not peaking before World's for once.
Good job for Yukari & Miki, too! They both skated well, with little bobbles and checks here and there, but on the whole very good. They seem very focused and prepared at this early point of the season. I wonder if the downgrades on the 3R is going to make Miki really re-think her jumps layout. Without the two downgrades in SP & LP (if she'd only stuck to 3-2's), she'd beat Yukari to the silver.
Can't wait to see a new batch of girls next week. Caroline, Carolina, Joannie. Whee!

I agree.
I think Yuna and Yukari looks great for it being this early in the year. Miki looks more like what we expect from skaters.
I love Yuna's selections from Scherezade, especially the slss. This season is going to be great!

If Yuna does lip it's very hard to see in real time. Wrong edge take offs arn't allowed to be reviewed in slow motion and their for severe and obvious wrong edge take offs. If it's there Yuna's is not obvious.
