I just watched Julia's SP: 28.55 is really too much for that program! There wasn't practically any transition in the first minute and she looked very slow on the ice... I thought it was going to be something like 26, especially considering that Mirai's was 27.55!LADIES COMPETITION - POSITION AFTER 10 OF 11

That's exactly what I noticed! :agree: She's like Leonova: horrible choreography, a wild use of her body, their programs don't have any relationship with the music but, when they land their jumps, the judges give them high PCS!Ugh... Julia needs to learn how to point her toes. But the judges in international competitions love her to bits, so she's not gonna change anything. She still seems to be skating right through the music throwing in gratuitous spirals in the most random places to rack up points.

indeed, feel like I'm watching acrobatics with those many spirals and flexibilities more than figure skating
the music is actually good you can do so much choreography with this program, but not surprised didnt Julia/Tutberidze choreographed her own SP ?
You highlight the main problem with COP. A lot of elements are included simply to accumulate points. Bring back the 6.0 system, and you will get more elegant, better choreographed programs. Its COP that makes the programs ugly, simply because the main objective is to accumulate points, not construct the perfectly choreographed program
