So I have been watching the SP delayed, and pretty much skipped the first group due to time reasons. So, I hadn´t predicted this standing at all!
My thoughts:
Young Ryabova was new to me, but what a pleasant surprise. Very impressed, she is very young and has a big potensial. Enjoyed her skating.
Also Alexandra Feigin was really nice and smooth!
Happy for Julia Sauter and qualifying for the FS. I just started looking at the 2017 Euros yesterday and she has improved really!
So for Camilla, a bit sad about the big mistakes, but small margins in this sport. I really wanted here to qualify for the FS, and didn´t expect this placement.
Although, I had a feeling that she would have to fight for a final spot, and to be honest i expected that she would get 46-47 points tops with very small mistakes, which maybe would just be enough to qualify, but i expected not under 40! Her season best ist 51 points from Minsk actually.. so she can do better. I guess she got very nervous, but that´s also this game in this sport. The positive thing though, she managed to put the program together with those mistakes. I quite enjoyed it still. But I really wanted to see her FS, is pretty nice, and she got a new dress, but there aren´t any videos out there from the FS this season. Well, there will be other competitions!
But very happy for Dasa GRM, i didn´t expect here to be this strong. I saw her earlier this season, maybe it was in Minsk?, and she had a very bad SP and her jumps looked weak, but now, pretty strong! Also, loved her dress!
So happy for Viveca and the placement! She might even medal!
Nicole Rajicova was a nice surprise, very unsure about her this season, but she is very strong fighter, and such a sweet and happy girl! So deserved scores.
Stasya, yes... I wasn´t really surprised, but really sad for her.
Very happy for Sofia, that was a good performance, she is so strong. I might even think she can win now with the tight scores, if Alina doesn´t go clean. But looks pretty nice for Sofia to medal.
Also, Alexia, a strong performance. Coming in last, doing such a wonderful performance and placing 3th. Impressive! And the dress, woah!
To conclude, Euros is Euros, people get nervous and make stupid mistakes, there are small margins. But it´s exciting and overall I would say that the final looks pretty strong to me.
