The announcer needs to become an official announcer for ISU competitions period! Who even is this guy? Anyone in the arena know?
That's not what I responded to you for. I repeat: Please do not forget that this his event and this thread are not for you alone to enjoy. Thank you very much.
I bet in one year if you put Polina next to the men's skater, she would be taller than some of them
She already is. Her height according to bio is 168 cm/ 5'6". That's way taller than Uno and Murakami, same height as Jin, and only a few cm from Yuzu and Patrick. Jumps are amazing though!
How could one person prevent the rest of us from enjoying such a wonderful event? :roll5: WHAT IS THIS? CENSORSHIP?
No, it's more in the realm of troll prevention. Leonardo can criticize the skaters as much as he wants, I don't care. But he also expressed his obvious opinion that he can write here whatever he wants with no consideration of the other member's feelings. Sorry, but the forum rules say otherwise. Everyone is responsible for his postings, and it is this responsibility that he tried to deny.
Okay. If this were a fan thread, I would get it. But we do have at our disposal the power to report such comments and if all else fails the ignore button. But so far so good right?
Very well. I'm not interested in flame war #748453 in this forum. Let's watch pairs!
I can't get over about her perfect her technique is. Those jumps, those transistions, that speed, that axel...Eteri really surpassed herself with Polina.
^^ can she still grow? i thought girls stop growing by 12/13 years of age
The nicest is the way she gets into the lutz. She has a very obvious delayed rotation, using the classic technique of staying on the outside edge, launching straight into the air to deal with the counter rotation first before starting the rotations. Thankfully she gets tremendous height and distance. Hope she can maintain those crazy good jump techniques. Eteri isn't known to be a great jump coach and her skaters often don't have the best jump techniques or good basic blade work but she got a +++ in Tsurskaya. Wonder who taught her the basics.
