Ladies' SP

Mao's 3A isn't very big, doesn't cover much ice and doesn't have great flowout. That's why she doesn't get +GOE on it.

I agree, she like leans back into the jump and does it under herself. If you watch the men do 3a, they cover a lot of ice. Yuna's 3-3 covers a lot of ice like the men do with their 3-3s.

The one she did here was breathtaking, though!

That's probably the best one I've ever seen her land.

Oh, it is still definitely beautiful and impressive, just not that big.

Rewatching it carefully... from Mao's take-off on the 3A to the landing of the 2T and flow out, you can calculate by the backboards that it's approximately 20 - 25 feet of total ice coverage. From Yu-Na's video explaining the mechanics of her 3Lz+3T combination, Brian Orser says her combination covers 25 feet of ice coverage. So they are relatively the same in that aspect.

Again, Diana Kim's score is hugely inflated. I hope she bombs in LP.

Thanks for giving her your blessing.
