Asada's scores seem to have been entirely inflated. She stepped out of her triple axel, and two of her loops in combination were so underrotated they were downgraded to singles. Also, one of her lutzes was reported to be "shaky."
And this is a skate that garners a monster 130 points? And the highest point total ever? Makes it hard to take seriously. I mean, I'm sure it was a great skate and all, but the scores seem ridiculous.
A Japanese ladies sweep as predicted. Looks like Suguri and Asada are headed to the GPF.
Do you have sekret access to the protocols? Id love to see what was downgraded in a 130+ FS. She has 3 monster combo's in her FS that she nailed today - 3f-3l that nobody does aswell as she does, she's re-introduced a 3t by way of 2x-3t plus a 3lz-2l-2l combo as her LAST jumping pass. These are worth sooooooo many points. She knew what she had to do and got through her program in a seriously pressured situation with what appears to be nerves of steel. Good for Mao!!!!!
BTW, the shaky lutz was in the SP if there was one - an impressive save.
