2018 Olympic Figure Skating Team Event Day 2

[EdgeCall]

That's an 80 performance in my book.

I find it remarkable how Zhenia has gained in artistry. Her expressiveness is practically on par with Caro.

Weird calls from tech panel.

Didn’t call Choi, called Carolina. Called what looked like fully rotated jumps from Satoko and then didn’t call Katelyn? Why?

Surprised at not calling Katelyn but Satoko's 3t was under, if not the lutz.

Some very nice moments by Evgenia but the constructions of the program bugs me and the emotion doesn't feel honest, especially at the end. Great that she was able to do this after her injuries.

 

[moriel]

Zhenia is amazing as usual.

[rikaquegira]

that 2A though...

 

[rain]

Obviously Med will be leading here, but, and this will probably be unpopular, I thought that looked a little rough and slow. Still, light years ahead of Zagitova, imo.

 

[randomfan]

Looks like another WR, I wonder how the audience will react

 

[Mista Ekko]

I think Kostner might be the best ever, And i even enjoy Osmond and Satoko more (when clean)

But Medvedeva is just an outstanding competitor and i really hope in the predicted "Russian battle" she's the one

who comes out on top

Eteri looking good and gracious!!

 

[s_parks]

I like to imagine Evgenia with a decent choreographer...

 

[3dsushi]

Well done Evgenia!

 

[shiroKJ]

Seeing Robin there tickles me

 

[Giselle]

[jillredhand]

WORLD RECORD!!! YAAAASSSS Evgenia! And there was even a little room for her to be better! I love this girl!

 

[Sensation]

Well done Medvedeva!!!

 

[Icey]

other worldly

Evgenia had a wobble before her first jump combo. And her 3T looks more forced than usual like it's closer to toe-axel technique now. But she should definitely be first

Satoko and Dabin were held down PCS wise and Kaetlyn was propped up PCS and maybe TES depending on the protocols for her jumps

I'm tired of Tara and Johnny commentating like Evgenia is the second coming. It's not Evgenia's fault, but I can't stand overhyping. I feel the same way when they overhype Nathan.
