Miki and Cynthia are going up and up at this rate.

I think Laura needs to start with the wrong music to skate well
Again she doubles jumps

Look, the TES and PCS are one not one and the same. If after watching the entire season you didn't get the message that Mao's program as currently structured would never get the highest nod for "artistic impression", then you weren't paying attention.

Definately.

Noooo. I thought the Olympics marked a new start for her.

I think her 3Lutz was URed though and could be DGed by the tech panel.

The problem is that getting DG on 3A is so severe (8.2 to 3.5 + -GOE) so that's a lot of points left on the table.

That's why I said on the nake eyed .. To need really slow motion footage to scrutinize the slightest UR does not any good to the fairness of the system.

She was hungry at the Olympics too but so was Kim, here Yu-Na was barely even trying. Maybe Yu-Na is depressed, so much success and achievements behind her- she's rich as hell, won every medal they make and she's just 19 years old, I guess that can feel like ones life is sort of over, professionally, while still so young and her entire life still ahead of her. Yu-Na looked bored out of her mind, like a child whose being forced to go to practice by their parents, whereas Mao was enthusiastic, glowing even (not that I like her program, far from it) so I find it strange that she did not beat Kim in the FS. Hope Mao chooses a more organic theme for herself next season. As for Kim- perhaps we're in for some years of rebellion from her?
