Alissa is also a better all-around skater than Ashley, IMO.
The judges know Ashley. Of the American women that are left she is the one that has made a gp final so I think her score was fine.
However I agree that Alissa should get a higher score than Ashley with a fall.
Hmm, that's true too.
Agreed, when she was done I thought she'd get around 110. I think its a fine score for what she delivered and compared to Miki posibly a little low but hard to tell without seeing the protocols.
Popped her Lutz, but added the 3-jump combo to her Flip. All other jumps good.
Specifically with her spins. Alissa will get higher GOE on all her spins than Ashley.
Shame about the lutz, it was a good performance!
So... Who won this? Akiko or Miki? I couldn't tell from the feed..
Just watched Ashley on the better feed; I really hate Malaguena for her. It makes her look crazy slow. But yay for the solid 2A-3T!
Looks like both American ladies got bonus points here. 3 falls for Agnes and higher PCS then Valentina who went clean! Almost the same PCS that she got for her cleaner skate at SC. Funny when the same thing happened to Chan everone was all over it going on about how falls should bring down the PCS marks.
akiko skate was good-agree about the lutz , but good skate anyay
Ashley's on the podium, just a matter of where.
Akiko is finally getting the PCS she deserves!
1. Miki
2. Akiko
3. Ashley
She's in the senior ranks now! A senior skater is expected to skate faster and the long program duration is longer than in the junior ranks. Maybe she's intimidated. It's a tougher challenge skating with the big girls.
Looks like that FS allowed Wagner to eke out a podium finish. Zawadzki helped her, though, by bombing.
115.31 for Akiko puts her in Second. Miki wins!
