Skate Canada 2012 Ladies - Short Program

**FSGMT** · 10-26-2012, 03:28 PM

I think Akiko's combo was 3T+3T<<, you could really see the big cheat in the landing... I think Gedevanishvili didn't hit some of the levels because her jumps looked clean but her TES is two points lower than Osmond's, the LSp and the StSq maybe...

I think I can safely say everyone's predictions in the ladies for Skate Canada might be very very off XD

Elene wins the SP!! Many congratulations to her. Hope she can hold it together in the FS

That and the scores she got today. Everything looked well done to me and the judges did not reward her. Maybe she was slow in person or they were seeing something else I was not. with Gracie's two errors I did expect Zhang to score higher above her despite the lower BV. I'd be happy to be wrong though- I really like Caroline!

FS should be interesting. I got a feeling the splat feast will continure .... none of the ladies known to be consistent.

No, Shelepin is last with 46 pts. Gracie has 52. Unless I'm missing your point.

I don't mind. I sort of expected this given the surprises at Skate America. And also I love Elene G. and can see how great Orser has been for her!

A good short, even with the mistakes with only 8 points between the leader and 9th place.

I don't mind either

It is great to see Elene skate this way!

She also mentioned Zhang, who is currently ahead of Gracie.

Elene should have been higher...Oh, forgot - it's in Canada

To be fair she did get the highest TES and she's fifth in PCS...unless she got some extra GOE she wouldn've have received elsewhere...but I would have found that hard to believe.
