Oh the artistry/athletic debate. Of course it's a technical, athletic sport, but it's also a artistic experience and the best programs, to me, use brilliant athletic prowess , combined with artistry, to create an emotional, transcendent experience for the viewers. Could a skater get an OGM with a fall? Sure - and that's OK with me. I go back to falls should be slightly more penalized then they are now, but not so much that they discourage high risk elements.
One thing I wonder about is whether men will start including a quad, that they know they will fall on. From my understanding it gives them another jumping box, they can try a 4T plus still include 2 3Ts (one in combination). Sure they won't get the dozen or so points of a nice completed jump, but they might get 3, and points are points. (point values off the top of my head so could be off - sorry guys)
