HECKEN, Sarah GER

3T - fall and almost hits the boards yikes
3S - another fall. Disaster
Flying sit
2A
Frenetic footwork but feels pointless.
Slow layback
Combo spin, going through the motions


This is definetly no longer the skater who finished top 12 at worlds two years in a row

Hang on, so that means that Jenna's the next one to benefit if somebody messes up...

There is hope after all!!!

Although, I can't see any of the skaters left messing that badly up...

He said '2nd tier Italian skaters.' He didn't say 'all Italian skaters are 2nd tier.'

Yeah, I found his correction after I posted that reply.

I never saw Hecken as graceful, but ever since she came back after her injury, she just looks like she's working really hard during her programs.
Sorry, but I really don't agree with her getting the same PCS than Maxwell.

Next Group

Elene Gedevanishvili GEO: A veteran an 2-time bronze Euro Medallist. Naturally talented but hugely inconsistent.
Viktoria Helgesson SWE: SHe's confirmed for Sochi over the 2 other swedish girls here but has had a very rough season.
Elena Glebova EST: Another veteran going for her third olympic games. She's only managed to crack the top 10 at euros once though.
Carolina Kostner ITA: No need of introduction, when at her best she's the most amazing skater.
Mae-Berenice Meite FRA: Classic powerful french skater. she keeps improving.
Adelina Sotnikova RUS: Reigning silver medallist. Needs to stablish herself as first russian lady.

McCorkell makes the FS despite the disaster on the jumps! She must be so happy now.

Yeah, it's just .

I think that this kind of powerful and dramatic music is a perfect fit for Hecken who isn't a graceful ballerina. But she seemed disoriented by the two falls and did not present and sell her program well at all.

I am concerned about Caro's 3T+3T. During practices, she is always landing 3T+1T and the 3-3 has been very inconsistent lately.

I predict two falls, one pop and a placement outside top 24.

That wasn't so bad, was it? Maybe not like in the olde days, but still. I like the confidence in her jumps.

@Ziggy: And I predict no fall, no pop and a place well within the top24 ...

Your prediction couldn't be more accurate.

It was about time for a clean program from her! Otherwise we couldn't have called her inconsistent anymore, she'd just have been consistently showing meltdowns.

I am very happy to say I was wrong. Gedevanisvhili FINALLY delivers. Fantastic technical elements!

A new program as well and sadly zero style and character of the choreography. She was fast and had good flow though.
