2015 NHK Ladies Short Program

[Li'Kitsu]

We don't know yet what kind of calls Mao got. The TEs was at 34+ and then dropped to 32+ and then 30+. One of those could have been the 3A<.

IMO, Maos score was fair, all things considered. It's not Mao's fault Mirai was held down in PCS

 

[Mista Ekko]

Good for Courtney

 

[tulosai]

Ugh, Mirai IMO should have scored more than Courtney... this is all screwed up.

Go Alena

 

[Shayuki]

Well she should be first and it's fair, but her PCS being higher than Mirai's bothers me.

 

[paperhearts]

everyone has finished after the music today, so I think it's the stream...

I'm watching on TV though... Is that affected too?

-

Ohh, good for Courtney on getting a 65! Well done. Good luck Alena.

 

[solani]

Very good skate from Courtney, I like that program!

 

[iceberg]

i agree mao was not overscorred, mirai was underscored.

 

[Sugarpova]

Go SPb!!!!
Alena!

 

[randomfan]

Good job Courtney!

 

[Mirunna]

The GOEs will bring its value up by at least 0.1 points!

Very funny. Maybe you guys should go on the ice and show Mao how to rotate the triples. And win some world titles in doing so.

 

[nolangoh]

Really you are arguing about the PCS? 32 is high for Mao? For this such entertaining program? Yes the mistakes did take away sparks from the program but how much you want to give her? 10??? Come on...

 

[Sugarpova]

Hicks is bland to me but good for her

 

[OS]

Well done Courtney! YOU BEAT MAO!!!

She got only one ur. We know for sure, because commentators see detailed judges marks online for each element.

Too bad about the the fall. Otherwise, commendable dedication to the program, as expected from Leonova!
