2016 JGP Yokohama Ladies SP

[Totentanz]

Highest PCS of the day for Sofia! I hope she skates well in the free and medal overall.

 

[topaz emerald]

wow, only fourth place???? she was WAY better than Alisa and Mako. What the heck....

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I love this crowd! It's so supportive of all the skaters!

Japanese crowds always are. That's why I love watching competitions from there. And why I wish they had more International competitions.

Like, how is it that Japan does not have a Senior B?! There should be at least one Senior B held in Japan every year! :agree:

yep, her skating skills and speed alone were unmatched.

Her skating is very smooth and pleasant indeed, but she needs to work on the tech.

Sofia got the highest PCS. But TES is low. Like she has invalid element or something. Kazakh lady is adorable

But Mako's underrotations on her combo were not called(at least judging by her score) while both Alisa and Sofia were punished to the max... Sad

 

[sunnystars]

Not sure if I agree with Sofia's PCS. Blowing air kisses and whispering (or hushing?) notions aren't exactly what I think of first about Send In The Clowns...but okay judges, you do you hwell:

 

[lavoix]

Sofia was a bit robbed in my opinion, as was Alisa!

That's WONDERFUL! Great job Amy!!!

 

[Crossover]

Nice job, Amy! She was a joy to watch.

I thought her jumps were solid. Her skating skills I would even put above the average Medvedeva. She skates with soul and passion, you can see it, feel it. Her skating is the only one that moved me tonight. Just my observation, but she was definitely the best skater at Yokohama. I'd put her first, Marin would be second, Alisa third.

Amy TES was low too....

Samodurova has the best skating skills. hands down !!!

I agree! It's sad to see low attendence or a clearly biased crowd. Japan needs a Senior B.

 

[frida80]

All done! Off to bed until Lombardia trophy! May miss the first group, so good luck Wakaba!

 

[cathlen]

Need to see protocols. I wonder what beside the edge was wrong with Sofia skating...

Spins possibly.

I don't think Sofia S. has the best SS in the field today. Her turns sometimes wobbled although her overall SS was excellent and way better than Medvedeva's SS. As comparing with her last season's programs, I think she would rather skate well to a more dynamic and upbeat music. She reminds me somewhat Leonova.
