i still feel that Polina can get better results overall than Masha, she just needs more competitions (and better FS)
Polina CAN get better score than Masha,and not than only her.
I agree with you,she needs more competition.
But,let's think a little bit:she started to practice her FS in September.The other girls had at least 3 months more than her to prepare their programs.At NHK,she showed the great potential of her FS.140 points wasn't the right score.She deserved more 6-7 points.At Russian Nationals,she was the best in SP,but,again,she didn't received the scores she deserved.She needed more internationals competitions untill Grand Prix,that the judjes can see her.I never understood why mr. Kogan didn't let the athletes who didn't participated at test scating to go at internationals competitions,like Golden spin,for exemple.Polina didn't participated at test scating because she wasn't recovered,not because she didn't wanted.
I believe in her and in her skilles.She has the most amazing jumps from all the ladies.I know,jumps aren't everything,she must to work more at transitions,too.I love the fact that she doesn't need tanos or rippons in her jumps or all the jumps in the second half of the program.She said in interviews,older ones and after the Russian Nationals that is very importand for her to feel that the coach is supporting her.I would love to see that more.I really apreciated how supportive was this half season Daniil Markovich and Sergey Alexandrovich with her at Russian Nationals and Sochi.
About her FS I would like to add something more-she has a natural grace in movement that helps her in lyrics programs.Also,she lives this FS,especially the ending part,when the melody is Song for the little sparrow.She feels it.She puts emotion in her skating.
I believe that,for this period of her life,the songs for FS are just right,how February was last year.
Ábout the scorring part,all she needs is more confidence in helself.
I agree with you,Polina is better than Masha at international competitions.
I would have love to see Polina at Olympics,but...it's not a perfect system and the world of figure skating is cruel when you make a mistake...So,for me,no Olympics this year,to...
I'll wait to see her at Cup of Russia and I'll support her,like I did since I found her.
She's so precious and special!I would like that many people realize that.
I don't want to argue with anybody,I don't know how Russian fans see her snd her FS,but in Romania,my country,and in other ones where I have friends,everybody( ha ha or almost everybody,because will never be 100%) likes her FS,not just like fans,but also like people who know about figure skating.
