I woke up from a nap just in time for Carolina's skate, so I saw the whole 2nd group. And I'm shocked.
Carolina's skate did not deserve those marks. The PCS are out of bounds unreasonable. Can you imagine how she herself must feel, getting such high marks after a skate like that? I mean, how stupid do the judges think skaters are? They should be ashamed.
Liza Tuk's skate only made me nervous and dizzy. Completely frenetic. The 3T-3T was beautiful, though.
The most beautiful, best-balanced skate was Angela Wang's. It was also the one which took a piece of music and translated it to emotion and a satisfying performance. Her presence on the ice was superb, her elements were well done, her performance was simply wonderful.
This all makes me angry. Figure skating has come to a ridiculous pass. No wonder the sport loses viewers like it's bleeding out. If I were a casual observer, I'd think, well, it's just a sport with no logic in the scoring.
Changes in the system better be coming.
But lets be real, Carolina Kostner is (by common people knowledge) the most known ladies name in figure skating right now... She is like a presenter of Ladies figure skating today... And she is what judges wanted from ladies when they incorporated that PC mark. I mean, at her best she outscored both Yu Na and Adelina in PCS who are both one of the best skaters in that part of skating in ladies figure skating history
