I will do a simple breakdown of scores; It will round it instead of being exact.
Fact and 3lutz/3T is only worth 3pt more than it's 3/2 sister;
Yu-Na has cosistantly scored 76 pts in the short with high goe's ;levels; and 8+ PC's
So a similar skater with only a 3/2 should be able to score 73 pts
If a skater presentation is less than Yu-na they may only get 7;s in PC's bringing the score down 4pts to only 69pts (aka joannie's 70pts)
If the skater doesn't max out her levels(3,4's) and only get (2,3's) that will cost her 5pts and lower her short to 65pts ( aka Joannie's 65+ score at worlds and Alissa Nationals )
If skater get lil to no positive GOE's that can cost 8 pts or more in general taking the skater score down to 57pts( Ashely Wagner and Carolina Zhang and Racheal Flatt)
If skater gets - GOE on all elments Wrong Edge; step outs; UR's ; etc that can cost another 8+ pts taking the skater score down to 49pts;
If the skater has bad PC's (5's) that will cost another 8 pts bring the skater short total to 41 pts
So do to the wide range of Levels; GOE's; PCs; and how clean a skater is a 3/2 program can score anywhere from 41 to 73; So I believe fans should think for a second before they say so and so had the same jumps yet there is a twenty point difference; I believe skaters are scoing higher because they are following the bullet points( for levels ; Goes) better than they were seasons prior and that is why they are scoring higer; Those who fail to hit the bullet points are throwing points away literally. I don't know if that is a skater issue or a coaching issue.
