That isn't true at all. It is pretty obvious that she (Kostner) is very fast -
The whole point of this part of the thread is that Kostner is not that much better than Flatt, aimed at all those who keeps knocking down Flatt.

Even if Mao gets a downgrade for her 3A, if she doesn't mess up her other elements in the SP, she will likely to be on the podium because she is known to come back strong in the LP. Flatt can't beat Mao unless she completely bombs her SP. Also how can Akiko be under Lepisto and Flatt??? :think: That girl won a bronze medal at GPF; I definitely think she will be at least fourth or even be on the podium if the top contenders falter. Also I think people are giving Flatt way too much credit. I don't think the judges favor her that much. I mean she hasn't won a world medal and has not even qualified for a GPF. I don't even remember a skater who medalled at Olympics not having at least qualified for GPF or won a major medal prior to the games. This may happen if the field is pretty weak but the present field of skaters are so deep that I just don't see this happening. I see the Europeans having a better chance than Flatt. IMAO.
Woah. Relax.
I was making a prediction of what I think may happen. You don't need to analyze every little detail. I feel that if Mao misses her 3 axel in the SP, the rest of it will fall apart, including the LP. This isn't what I WANT to happen, it is just my guess.
Is this your first or second Olympics?
