2018 Worlds Ladies FS

[gioccia]

This is Zagitova's retreat, like rythmic gymnastics, failures mean the end of your career, behind there are a dozen girls who will not be wrong. Trusova, Shcherbakova and Kostornaia are the future
Next season will be Alina's for sure. She's just really tired and Eteri put her through hell in between these events.

Ok I literally cannot process what just happened. That was the wildest competition I've watched since I started following this sport. How could so many meltdowns happen?

 

[Mista Ekko]

Wakaba is the true winner of the free skate.

Disagreed

But she was amazing :agree:

Wakaba might just be the HAPPIEST silver medalist, ever! :hap93:

 

[waterfall braid]

i feel so sad for zagitova but delighted that wakaba has silver!

 

[WeakAnkles]

Well that turned out to be quite the "Alright, who's holding the voodoo dolls" event didn't it?

 

[gravy]

Zomgcopter. This podium is good. I love unexpected results!

Kostner... sigh... All you needed to do was the second 2A even without the 1Lo+3S!

Totally European free podium. First time since when?

 

[Mrs. P]

Bradie finishes 4th in the FS. Probably a case for her to finish higher... both in the FS and overall...

BUt oh hey how about Loena Hendrickx finishing top 6 in FS and 9th overall? Bet big bros is proud!

CONGRATULATIONS KAETLYN!!!!!!!

WORLD CHAMPION!!!!!! :luv17:

And congrats to Japan for not just regaining 3 spots but getting silver and bronze!!! Great redemption for Wakaba!

I'm so over the moon. This is incredible and so unexpected!!!

 

[jkun]

omg the drama in that last group!

 

[Mikansei]

Did Russia loose 3 spots? It's already a bloodbath with 3 spots, can't imagine what it is like to just have 2 O_O they have such a deep field and so much talent

 

[Alchamei]

I'm gonna say it. Wakaba should have been at the Olympics, not Worlds. Kaori should have got Worlds.

 

[TontoK]

Congrats to all my Canadian friends here on Goldenskate!

I'm really pleased for all of you. You've been so loyal to your skaters.

Like this is why we need post-olympics worlds. While I'm not happy about a lot of things that happened, this was a NAILBITER. And sometimes it's nice for an event to be 100% unpredictable.

 

[Danny T]

I cant believe I started this week worrying about Japan ladies three spots!! And now here we are!!



(oops that means the men will have even more pressure rip shoma)

 

[moriel]

Afaik, the fair thing would be to give bronze to Loena here.

 

[IlVoloFan]

Kaetlyn love you so well-deserved !!!

 

[Tulipstar]

Thats the thing with post Olympic Worlds. I guess Kaetlyn stayed hungry enough to fight. Well, and Wakaba too, but she didnt skate at Oly, so...

Yeah, she looked super-focused just before she got on the ice before the warm up, while the others all looked nervous.

GOLD FOR KAETY SILVER FOR WAKABA BRONZE FOR SATOKO what an unexpected turn of events... and although I'm really sad for Caro and Zagi, I'd be lying if I said I'm not happy for my japanese girls and Kaety ^^
