Vika could have scored pretty big at the Inge Solar Memorial but her PCS was kept low. At both programs she got less PC points at this event than what she got at her JGP event. Her FS TES here was about 68.5 points but her PCS was barely 52 points.
I agree! Much better performance than the JGP she was with the music this time instead of skating through it. Too bad about zayaking at the cup event because she has shown a lot of improvement in her performance quality over the past month.
Good for Viktoriia to have made it, she must be thrilled to be competing and confident after R-Ch YG.
Hoping for a result she is happy with and a SB boost.:agree2:
Viktoriia is first on the ice in the SP tomorrow. Good luck! :agree2:
She gives the impression of really enjoying her competitive skating this season.
In Nationals in December, she produced a great FS after a disappointing SP. In fact, there she scored second highest TES (73+) behind only Nastya T (75+) (...excluding the three As of course), ahead of Anna T, Sofya, Stasya and the rest.

She has been assigned to JGP Russia along with Valieva and Tarusina. It looks like this will be Vika's 1st JGP event since she was subbed out from JGP Riga.
If I’m not mistaken, her short program music this season is part Tron soundtrack and part Fifth Element soundtrack.
What is her long program music? I can’t find video.
