2013 Europeans Ladies - Short Program

[Li'Kitsu]

Yes! And is the biggest score ever at the Europeans for a sp

Wow! And it's not as if Adelina had a super season so far and had a great reputation/momentum advantage. Her PCS were 30.36, that's quite high!
Hope this gives her more self-confidence for tomorrow

[Jammers]

It's great for another reason too. I don't the Sochi Olympics to just be between skaters that we've been watching for the last 6-7 years. We need the younger girls to step up and challenge. It will make it so much better to watch.

Now the pressure is on Liza. Fingers crossed for her also! Go baby Tukt

[sky_fly20]

You simply can not stand not being right IMO. Wishing for a skater to fail is not very nice

I have given up on Sotnikova as she is too incosistent for me
until then she needs to prove she can be consistent, so far her achievemnts are a bit underwhelming

[Li'Kitsu]

Now best of luck to Liza! Go out there and show everyone that the russian wonderbabies are not just overrated!

[Kuan]

Gooo liza

But you sounds really too strict. Actually she is growing and she is just a teenager. even if you do not believe in her you say that she Will fall 2 times. But why are you so sure? may be she will fall 3 or 4 times or will not..but from your side it sounds like a fact.

Go go Adelina!!!we believe in you!!!))

She's only 16 years old. Some skaters take time before they hit their stride. Just look at Kostner people gave up on her 3 years ago and now she's World Champion at 25.

[Mirunna]

Liza only 2Lz-3T(man she fought to add a 3T and it went well), 3Loop gorgeous, 2A tano style but a turn on the landing. Will be third, the question is by how much

thats what I saying. would people really want to wait for Sotnikova to turn 25 or 26 just to become a world champion ?
she is a Maria Butyrskaya copy

It's not about if other "people" want to wait. It's about what Adelina wants.

:-/ I really love liza´s skating even with two mistakes but she looks kind of poor compared to Sotnikova. Same dress for 3 years, cheap looking tights und dirty shoes.
