90 pcs and 40 tes maybe
Your posts irritate me so much sometimes but this one is really funny for some reason.
90 pcs and 40 tes maybe
Wow!
So let me recap this nonsense
I: "Caro's flip is great. Amazing"
Yuna's fans: "Oh no, she telegraphed too much. That made the jump terrible."
I: "Telegraphing doesn't make it a bad jump. Look at the GOE for her flip. When she landed them cleanly, she got +2 GOE almost across the board."
Yuna's fans: "You don't know what you are talking about. Telegraphing a jump is a bad jump. Look up the rule"
I: "Look at what she's getting. +2, +3"
Yuna's fans: "She can't do a triple flip that often. And her lutz, god, who knows if she really keeps it on the outside edge"
I: "Urgh, what? Look again. Here's a video."
Yuna's fans: "Oh no, she's really inconsistent. Kim regularly get +2 on her flip consistently during the 2009-2010 season"
I: "What? Look at her records. She wasn't that consistent with the flip and she got some edge call. How can it be better?"
Yuna's fans: "Oh, but she does 3F-3T and she routinely got +2 +3. She just has better flip"
I: "Not really. The few times they competed head to head, Caro's flip got better GOE. Like the 2011 World."
Yuna's fans: "Oh, not fair. Yuna wasn't at her best"
I: "At the Olympics, where Yuna is at her best, her flip still got lower GOE"
Yuna's fans: "Oh, but she does 3F-3T. And she got +3 and +2 on her 3Lz-3T, too. Oh, and Michelle said she's awesome. And Scott and Sandra and everyone think she's the best. Her 3F is better than the Samsung Galaxy S4. She should get +4 GOE"
Good grief. I will stop here.
I think that only Yuna, Caro and Mao are likely to get 130+ in the free if they skate well, however (and I know many wont agree with this) If in the unlikely event that Sotnikova puts it all together she could go 130+ aswell as she really has it all when she is on. I would say Liza as well but I think her pcs will prevent her from doing so especially up against all of these girls, and of course gracie could do absolutely anything.
On an unrelated note I find it rather sad that so many people are not able to see beyond their favourite skater and see that right now there are 3 ladies (Yuna, Caro and Mao) who are Incredible, soon enough these three girls will retire, maybe then these people will be able to see that all of these 3 are brilliant in there own right. obviously everyone will have their favourites but that doesnt mean that their favourite is the best at everything and no one else is anywhere near as good. for example I prefer Mao but I have no problem admitting that yunas short gave me chills at the olys and carolina has some of the most perfect jumps and glorious skating skills I have seen I am happy that I am able to enjoy this great period in ladies skating and sad that some others are unable to
I agree with skatel30 and Minze2001. YuNa, Mao, and Caro are extraordinary skaters who I don't see fast & easy replacements for once they retire.
Skater Boy said:I am not so sure Caro is of the same quality as Yuna or even Mao (artistically et jump wise).
Skater Boy said:Wagner and Gold are possible 130's; I don't think Liza or Adelina have enough to quite get there. Maybe 128 or 129.
I am not so sure Caro is of the same quality as Yuna or even Mao (artistically et jump wise). Worlds tends to get inflated or have the best skating so more 130's are possible but usually only 3. Wagner and Gold are possible 130's; I don't think Liza or Adelina have enough to quite get there. Maybe 128 or 129.
Mark my word-- Osmond has no realistic chance of making top 5! So why continue to figure her in with this process?
caro is better than current yuna. she has better spins, stsq, skating skills, programs and interpretation. I would never bet on caro winning due to lack of consistency. But she is definitely on par with yuna and mao.
I guess only americans think wagner and gold are better than liza and adelina. Potentially adelina can score the highest among them. She is way better than wagner technically, and has better spins and pcs than liza and gold.
because she will be on home ground
mark my word if she skates clean Osmond will be almost at par with Carolina in pcs
even with 1 fall she will score a 120+ given her inflation potentials
I think Yuna has better spins, but Caro does have better steps, SS(slightly better), and FS program compared to Yuna.
Unfortunately, Osmond won't get inflated score she had at Canadian Nationals again. Even at Canadian Nationals, she wasn't able to receive 70+ PCS. And of course, even the PCS she received at Nationals(67.68) is an inflated score. It's not going to happen at Worlds, even if she skates without any mistakes at Worlds. It's World Championship, not a National.
you forgot it will be on home ground soil. it has happen before remember Gachinski's
the judges wont be shy giving Osmond a 135+ with a clean LP rivaling her pcs close with Mao or Carolina
she is the outside threat amongst the three and with potential inflation boost
Yes, but she received 67.68 at Canadian Nationals which was held in Canada. Judges even gave +GOE for her flutz at Nationals. I don't see why international judges who would be at Worlds would act as if it was a one of those Nationals with huge inflated scores.
exactly on home ground soil
I think she can crack a 70-72 pcs rivaling Carolina and Mao's
if others falter Osmond will be a lock for the bronze
