2015 Worlds Men Short Program March 27

[OS]

40 for PCS. LMFAO.

Feel sorry for the dude though.

Well the judges TRIED! ridiculous!

 

[evangeline]

Adam was not scored fairly on PCS, and its the judges who decide by how much to deduct, and what to give on GOE, which is an easy way to manipulate placements. Look how Yuzu made a similar mistake to Denis on his opening quad, but the judges ignored Yuzu's mistake becuz, yeah they are in love with Yuzu, even when he cleans up the ice with five falls like on the GP circuit partly due to injury. When a skater has rep with the judges, they get breaks with mistakes. Denis does not have Yuzu's rep, so Denis is marked down more.

Did you even watch the competition? Ten had more mistakes than Hanyu (are you forgetting the big step-out on Denis' 3Lz-3T which Hanyu didn't have?) and a less intricate program.

Adam was scored fairly on PCS. His SP is all about setting up for the jumps, which negatively impacts basically all the components of PCS.

 

[Silvia451]

Perfect podium for me. Yuzu, Javi, Denis, please clean programs tomorrow.

 

[auser]

Whoops...I jinxed him.

But not only is it's Liza's music...it's Plushy's from all those years ago. I recently watched that Bolero it was fabulously tacky with the crazy costume with the nonsensical cut-outs.

Have you seen Torvill/Dean Bolero?

 

[invisiblespiral]

I am currently feeling schadenfreude right now. But only towards Kovtun.

 

[lilithgothique]

Can't watch but... How did kovtun get better PCS than josh?

 

[satine]

My God. I have seen tbe whole results. What happened to Takahito, Takahiko, Josh, Adam?

As far as I can remember- Adam got at least a full UR call on the 4Lz, Josh fell badly on the 3A, Takahiko fell(?..), Takahito popped twice(?). Sorry my memory's fuzzy from excitement +disappointment. Protocols will be out soon

 

[Mirunna]

Kovtun with better SS than Kozuka

 

[PorcoPlane]

Well, i need clear FS for Denis, because.. sp is so horrible..

 

[Silvia451]

And Nam in top 10. This is nice.

 

[EdgeCall]

Liza could actually compete if they adjusted her PCS scaling..

She would get 86 points. Not too shabby at all.

 

[QuadThrow]

hanyu overscored:think:

it reminds me of the olympics... two leaders in front and a big field fights for bronze

 

[rollerblade]

Haha... a new diva for the men!

Hey now. At least he didn't storm off backstage before his scores went up.

 

[treeloving]

The one who is over score in pcs are actually Kovtun and Voronov. Not Ten and Yuzuru.

 

[AnastasiaO]

Denis got 3points less in pcs than Hanyu...

 

[frieda]

Bolero seems to get used approximately twice a season, so I don't understand the "so and so's music!" comments

Except Torvill & Dean, of course.

 

[satine]

Can't watch but... How did kovtun get better PCS than josh?

Who knows how he ever gets the PCS he gets

 

[silverfoxes]

Serves the Russian fed right for not giving Sergei the title he deserved. I really do feel bad for Kovtun though I'm not his fan; it's not his fault that he was hyped up undeservedly.

Apart from that meltdown & Sergei not being ahead of Denis, it was an immensely satisfying competition for me. So far.

 

[adelia]

Nothing unexpected here. Including the scoring.

 

[Cleo]

Wow, the way things are going, no country is going to have 3 spots for next year. FS will determine all!
